Love it! :thumbs:

 

God i wish i bought those wheels when i had the chance!! :(

 

possibly the best thing i ever did...S1HNK was a top lad and looked after them perfectly.. wrapping them in the best tyres was a bonus too .. thanks again brother

 

No worries fella, they have certainly gone to a good home! That gearknob is insane :D

Haha I love how stupid it is :) so makes it special to me and yeah the seats are going away to be retrained in tan and cream with a bit of quilting in the middle :) just need some donor seats to send off :( anyone? Haha

Love the paint and wheels, your bravery has certainly paid off...i considered a similar scheme many years ago on my pulsar gtir...not a fan of the inside though to be honest

Does the light coloured centre console reflect in the windscreen as much as it appears in the photo?

Work looks brilliant, and great to see you making it your own.

 

I'm going to buck the trend by saying I actually hate it - especially the colour - but I do respect it.

 

Mainly as I associate gold / cream with old Rover 25s and the blue rinse brigade and can't shift away from that feeling.

 

But if I could, I'd respray mine in a candy blue so I get the concept ;)

Rumour has it that Usain Bolt saw this car and liked it so much, he had his GT-R painted too.

my friend is an MOT tester ( lucky me ) he said if its not there to test it cant be tested.. god knows on the true legalities though but i couldnt live with them just didnt look right stuck on there :(

I really like the 370z side repeaters, if you have made the effort to delete the originals, they are worth retro fitting. I don't know if they are a straight swap though (probably not).

 

I'm getting a lot of inspiration from your car, your lucky to have so many friends in the various trades!

Loving the progress on the build mate.

 

For MOT - an indication bulb/flash must be seen when looking at the car from angle. So if you are looking completely side on you may struggle.

 

As for the 370 repeaters, i was looking on a few threads the other week as i am toying with the idea. They are bigger than the 350 Zed badge hole, but can be made to fit/extended quite easily aparantly. Little drilling / welding etc.

I have seen something on eBay that's similar to the BMW side badge indicator on the Z4. It's suppose to act like a side light or just for fun? So only comes in white or blue and just fits under your current "Z" badge. This could be worth a shout?

Alreet!

 

How much did it cost for the full respray bonny lad? I'm weighing up the options on a fresh start for the paint job. Don't worry I ain't gonna copy it, but it will be unique!

 

Cheers
