Front bumper mounts are finished off now too, lethal mounts FTW!

Awesome, someone is going to do some damage with those motherfrickers

MJG · 27-06-2008, 23:28

Nice work, I should really look into that for mine, saves cable tie effort! How you supporting the sides from flopping? And how you supporting the front edges of the wings?

Hit me up so I can taff my car.

Hit me up so I can taff my car.

The valance still bolts to the front of the car, allbeit with two less screws. So the front of the wings will still bolt into the valance under the outer headlight and in through the side under the bumper where it slots into those locating sliders. As it is theres no bolts holding anything in place so I don't think it'll need much to hold it all in place. I may need to make some simple new tabs to mount the valance to the front though where I've cut the middle two tabs off.

I'm going to be pulling the engine and box out later on today! So I'll be able to get in behind the valance and see whats what before deciding if it needs more support and whether its ready for paint!

MJG · 28-06-2008, 02:01

Make the valance removeable, it's facking annoying when it gets smashed in and dented and you have to go around with a ratchet undoing the flangeing thing.

Proof is in the pudding when it actually runs... and moves under it's own power Bryn

The R324 got this far and hasn't quite got to the end..

Kidding!

Looks awesome man, what sorta prices do you get for a bare shell spray? since I'll be looking at the same for the Manta once it's ready (IF ever..

) for paint.

sideways.taff · 02-07-2008, 22:17

My price for a bare shell respray?! haha. I dunno mate, I've only ever done one bare shell respray lol. And err the grey on the BMW is hand brushed on lol.. so its complete with streaks, runs and stray bristles hahaha!!

driftnething · 02-07-2008, 22:55

Cyruz · 03-07-2008, 01:19

Did it need new paint, honestly Bryn

(When you going to test this, I'm coming to watch and collect my Taff*Tune sticker....)
