richbk Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 looking awesome dan i so admire your ambition, work ethic and results. i cant even get the radio out of my exige after 25 minutes of faffing this evening!!!! looking forward to seeing / hearding it in the flesh!! are you fitting rear grills or leaving everything open ? rchbk
danwebster Posted June 8, 2013 Author Posted June 8, 2013 Many thanks rich, its been tough and at times felt like it would never be done so even though I've got to take the clam back off to fix a few things down it felt great getting it looking like a finished car for a while I'll be leaving it exactly as you see it, I like the exposed look personally. When I have a few spare pennies I'll be buying an extended Motorsport diffuser too.
jody391 Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Haven't you got the indicators and brake lights the wrong way around Dan? Must say with my last S1 I very nearly did this too, always thought it looked better somehow
danwebster Posted June 8, 2013 Author Posted June 8, 2013 Well spotted, yes - makes the car look really wide at night
Martin R Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 Dan, what extra is being added engine wise before the mapping?
chris_h Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 I notice you sprayed over the lotus sticker on the back left. If you peel them off now it'll probably leave a nice effect
danwebster Posted June 13, 2013 Author Posted June 13, 2013 The elise 111s sticker on the right too....the trouble is if I start to peel it'll take the whole rear end off I like the stealth look anyway, i'm not a stickers / stripes man - prefer to let the performance do the talking
John FISH Curtis Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Nice. Just a couple of things. (1) Are you sticking with those wheels, me thinks black Rota's would look good? (2) The fron toe eye will drop and tap against the clam!!
danwebster Posted June 14, 2013 Author Posted June 14, 2013 I'm thinking about painting the wheels black, but other than that i'm sticking with them for now...i've spent enough now! The towing eye has a grub screw in it that keeps in in place, it can't drop and hit the clam
jonnyfox Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 My box of left overs That's funny I have the same but in a bag, it does feel good knowing all the nuts and bolts are new :-). I have a toilet at work packed high the rafters with stuff I have removed.
