Yep need seats and a cage first though...


Next job... converting the headlights to awesome looking bi-xenon hid projectors with led halo devil eye things

Actually looking forward to how these turn out, always liked the look of BMW lights

Looks awesome, a thing of beauty  s:) :) s:)  
Although i'm getting a wee bit spooked by the red light - have you seen the film "2001 a space odyssey"? Reminds me of the deranged computer control system HAL - "Open the pod bay doors HAL!" - "I'm sorry Dave, I can't"...

Very nice Lee.
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Does anyone know if these fit FL lights and if so are there any differences in fitting?

I think facelift lights are projector as standard which is why there are writing guides between pre and post facelift lights.

Been following the car on the YouTube channel, really impressed how it's turning out.

I need to do a better job of it. The quality of the paint job needs to match the looks. Which it doesn't now. I did an ok job of it, but I can spray better now. The inside of the engine lid is a much better job than the car.   Also the rear bumper is a better colour. It's a more cherry colour. So I want to do the whole car in that colour with the same black accents
