Looking good mate,

Love that boost gauge...i had that tax disk holder too so funny  :grin:

how did you smooth the air box like that? hammer and chisel?

Anythig that I could get my hands on in the shed that was sharp lol. But mainly chizel, cutters and a wizard to smooth it off. Most of the bigs black clips just snap straight off

had some problems with the bolts so ordered some new ones, so far so good with the wheel nuts staying on tight.
Also purchases a torque wrench, i now know for certain i was over tightening the old nuts :embarassed: so atleast now i know they are all done correctly :D

old bolt and new bolt



still need to purchase some side skirts and get them and my smooth bumper painted although atm funds are quite tight  :sad:

just a quick pic taken from iphone (need to get some pis taken with slr just keep forgetting lol)

Lovely pics,

but looks like you've got a bit of under tray hanging down,

Ford Nimbus Gray would look tidy on those wheels  :smiley:
