I received a panel and it was damaged on the corner so i fixed it up the best i could and decided to colour it up, something i had been thinking of doing for a while now, because i could basically !!!

 

The inserts are all chrome wrapped to mimic facelift reverse panel with fitted EL sheet to give that subtle light at night.

scrap it :tt2:

Nice to see you are still doing different projects Andy :yes:

That's different mate, now people can have the lettering the same colour as their zed but still light up what ever colour they want. Your ideas never end do they mate!?

Colours are silver, yellow, red, white and green.

 

I wanted to use blue but it was too dark so it was replaced with the silver.

 

I tend now to stick with red illumination as it cannot be deemed illegal on the rear.

I prefer the illumination in red personally anyway but white would also be a good choice and could easily be connected to a switch or even the reverse lights for legal/mot purposes.

I made this as a bit of fun and is totally unique.

 

The offside chamber is fitted with a red 21w bulb, this acts quite legally as the fog light, the nearside chamber as the white reverse bulb fitted, just swap out the red fog bulb for a clear if you want to return both chambers back to factory setting, of course there's some very basic wiring to be done if you only want fog light at MOT time.

 

The reverse panel can easily be changed over so i am thinking you could quite easily own this one as well as the one you have.

 

If this panel didn't have the tiny corner repair i would want much more, but your eyes are not drawn to this surely, other than this it is in extremely good condition, a lot of work as gone into it, chroming, etc, anyone want this fun one off piece for £45.00 delivered ?

Looks like something that should be adorning the kitchen of Don Giovanni's Italian Restaurant! :lol:
