Thom

i see your point most people ask this BUT doin inch welds or continous welds the panels pull ( warp ) like mad and that = alot more work and materials for the sake of such a small plate a few tacks is more than enough but each to our own we all have diffrent ways of goin about things

any ways moving on

sorry about the late reply with pictures guys to be honast im not totaly satasfied with it as for i got runs in 3 off the panels 2 bein doors and a quater but for my 1st ever repaint i dont think i done to bad im over the moon with my smoothing  :cool: but i can only inprove any ways







this is goin to UD and i dont think its goin to be totaly finished in time as for i havent got time to sort the 3 panels out i messed up but i tryed my best and it will get sorted out just after the show so im pretty annoyed about it but it will get sorted in good time  :smiley:

Just curious... hope it doesn't sink

This car reminds me of the Storm Trooper car, which I see on a regular basis...

Heres the current ride height   :cool:





And yes a couple of people have said it reminds them of the Stoomtrooper one Jake did and sold  .. mainly because thats white with black wheels too though and they dont make them in white..  :grin:

Quite a few differences tho if you know your Leons.. ( Different shade of white,   Mines got handles and rub strips smoothed , the front bumper number plate bit cut out and meshed, diff wheels  etc etc..
