You'll need to post a video of you driving to the shops with your driving gloves on, in the style of the guy who did it in his renault clio with no pas

Cage is being removed tomorrow and then getting powdercoated.
Haha sod that I've always said driving gloves are gay but I really need them thanks to sweaty palms when racing...not ideal!

A light anthracite. It's the same colour as the strip that goes along the dash which you can see on Page 1. Just gotta get the cage out and doorcard so I can take the cage to a powdercoater for a price & colour match

Cheers lads. Got loads more but I haven't got round to editing them yet, my mate who took them just did a quick edit on that one
I took the cage out & dropped it at the powdercoaters to be painted in graphite grey ready next week, cars getting painted this weekend so I need to get the harness plates welded on this week

I am waiting for a CSL box to come up for a decent price. I'm going to look at it as an investment, as it will sell again when it comes to removing for the same money!
Not a fan of the CSL bumper though, not on anything other than a CSL anyway
You don't understand how much I can't wait! The back looks so tatty at the moment with faded red and original primer colour under sound deadening so it should look mint all painted red with fresh cage!

Thanks Whittie :-)

These cars are built too well, so much stuff to remove for painting!




Rest will be removed once in the bodyshop as I've got to drive it there. I bet it flies with all the weight out!
