Been busy today, sneak preview of work in progress. big update soon

More work this morning. repairs and sanding ready for primer this week on body parts
and a carbon hatch garnish popped out the mould this morning

Love that bumper so much !!, you should use one of your boat contacts to make a mould and start producing them. Theres no one in europe that does only U.S and even that is stopping now :(

just emailed corksport for price to buy their mould. it the mould making that costs the most it would be cheaper to buy and post than build a new one

its already stopped. they havent made them in awhile. Corksport just sold off the 2 remaining one's they had been sitting on forever when they clearenced them out for like $150. 'The Pile" scooped up the last one they had.

great update today
All body panels went to the spray shop today so in a couple of weeks I hopefully get them back ready to fit, thats MS front bumper, JDM rear bumper, MS tailgate and spoiler, ujdm side skirts
just getting a price to have the equipe logo's recreated down the side of the car but modified in colour with a personal touch added
Today, after what seems like 200 years I finally got my powerflow stainless system back after being modified to fit properly, so bunked off work an hour early and whacked that sucker on :cheers:
Not so much louder than the 5" beast fitted before but you get all the valve over run and popping that I missed out with the old one and love to hear
Tailpipe is 6" x 3" with straight through center section and handbuilt by powerflow and sounds awesome with my decat :bigok:
Mot this month too and some tax at the end of the month and she is good for another year
heres some update pics, will reveal the full work at japfest this year so these are the last pics before another major facelift
-
Great to see the project rolling on again Keith, bet you cant wait for all the Japbling to go on, should look wicked 8)

pre japfest sneaky peek
I had a couple of hours this week at work spare so I cut this, just needs sanding, into shape then sand all over and it will be ready for lacquer and mounts, its not a great fit but I have learnt a lot with this first one and just a bit of heavy sanding and it will get pretty close :cheers:
-
That's screaming out for a de lock !
-
Aye, Delock that bitch :)
-
didnt even think of that, will get on it before its sprayed :bigok:
-
Is that the plastic rear window as well bud ?
-
wow that looks amazing… I didn't know you had an MS spoiler 8)

While you at it you could have that little recess in the bumper where it meets the boot filled to give a nice clean smooth look?!
-
MOT day today, just failed on emissions by 0.04 on Co2 so now I have to put the cat on as I forgot to refit before hand but it shows that regular maintenance can make a difference, I bet it would have passed if I did all the plugs and an oil change last week
So thats an hour under the car today to get it retested :x
Another bit of booty for the MX arrived today, its taken a month to arrive but my special led bulbs for my halos arrived from japan so I fitted them before the rain set in today, they are much brighter and a lot darker green so they will be awesome at night
