Ah yes the antenna, I didn't spot that as I'm so used to seeing mine without it now, it's become "the norm". Whilst I wasn't bothered by the washer jets, having seen it on a couple of cars now, it is another nice touch.

the wet sanding is done thanks god the car is coming home 2 moz at last will get some pic in the light of day but you can see here just how well its come up

the car is home at last time to build this all back up my fone cam does not pic up the colour very well its a audi red its really red in real life but fone cant pic it up

Only just joined the forum tonight.

 

Came across your thread, read it from the start and more than impressed at the work and effort into it so far, is going to be some machine.

Came to the end of the thread and didnt realise it was a work in progress, was a bit disapointed not to be able to see it finished as was looking forward to it haha

 

An inspiration to get me my first zed

Will be keeping tabs to see how your geting on, keep it up fantastic work. Pleasure to follow the build
