My stand was literally 3 down from yours i think. when i was coming back from track i saw yours and was like 'my lower grill neeeds to be like that' came down to the stand to see if anyone was about and it was dead what have you used to do your lower grill i want to do mine the same

 

[Mike R]

Lol a few people looked at the grill.. you just have to trim it all out, i used an air saw.. then mesh it.. i found some plastic mesh which was a good match with the outer grills so i stuck that in..

 

[CluneZ]

if you dont mind me asking where did you get the plastic mesh from i can only find metal and would much prefer plastic if i can. PM me if you're not keen on saying on your thread

mike paint the red strip on the steering wheel green. use watered down acrylic paint, will stay flexible and not crack. i did mine getting on a year ago and still looks new great car by the way

Alrite Sam.. thats a good idea, I keep looking at different steering wheels, so im undecided yet.. If i do it green then buy a different one ive gotta try and sell the green one lol.. unless it would come off with white spirit or something

Paint red over the top

 

[Mike R]

Not much to update.. but Ive had my photoshoot done now will be in the mag in a few weeks

Keeping quiet but heres a quick crappy snap i took..

Oooh and ive spaced the rears out another 15mm a side... So now im running 50mm spacers
as you can see it scrapes a wee bit sometimes

Quite a few things i want to do this winter.. just bought another little project to do, so the Leons coming off the road in a couple of months and getting more TLC
