Touch wood, it's been along time since of had a crash and I would like to think iv metured and learnt a lot in that time.... Plus with great power comes great responsibility lol

That's not good mate - sorry to hear of your bad luck!

Apparently bad things come in 3's so hopefully that's it!

sorry I shouldn't laugh but that sounds like one of my Bad days!
I may have all the best intentions in the world but for some reason it all goes to pot!

Walk away take a breather and go back to it can the bumper not be plastic welded? and patched repainted? also I'm betting your mate that painted the car can sort the minor scuffs as with the Wheels the company that did them can sort it!

but I'd hang on for the paint jobs until your 99% there and make sure there's not more to patch by the end,
1st see if the bumper can be saved!

as said your nearly there!!! on an insane project I'd personally love to be able to undertake!

Keep at it Lad!

Can't beat getting touched up!!

It's not bad going really to get all that done and just have the few feck ups!

Always happens, I got my 6 all proper sorted then a couple of weeks later smashed the wheel and suspension.
Same with the St mondeo, spent well over a grand on brand new wheels and PS3 tyres then days later smashed one on a huge pothole.
Don't know why it happens, my dad got his dents sorted on his car then backed into somthing and smashed the boot in
Not just you its just what seems to happen to everyone, drive a shed and nothing happens, and when it does you don't care!

Well.....
Nothing got done over the Christmas holiday due to me being sick for the majority off it

This weekend coming is going to be a car related weekend so should hopefully get lots done as the weekend after the car is off to pro alloy

Me and my mate need to finish the front bumper, try and make the boot lid fit a bit better which is going to require some trimming of the bottom edge and top edge so that it's straight (something nur didn't manage to do) it will then be lacquered and once that is done I need to bond the p4p rear screen in.

At the minute the rest of the Windows are glass and will remain that way until the car is finished to avoid them getting scratched.

I will then fit the bonnet so the engine bay and inside of the car won't get wet traveling to and from pro alloy as it's bound to be raining!

Fitted the water pipes which iv had for a while now so pro alloy will know where to put the inlet and out let for the rad.

I finally got round to getting my cooler for the charger, after talking to rich we decided on going for a 13 row cooler along with my 19 row engine oil cooler.

Hopefully the two coolers will sit between the intercooler and rad depending on how much room I have once the fans are fitted, I will have a chat with pro alloy and see what they say.
I'm thinking the best layout might be the fans being attatched with the aid of brackets to the front of the rad and the two oil coolers being attached to the back of the intercooler with the aid of brackets.

Anyway here are some pics.... And hopefully more to come after the weekend












Sorry about the craps pics but my phone battery was nearly dead so wouldn't let me take a pic with the flash on

Thank you kind sir

The strut brace is from France and was from a lhd but then got cut and re welded to fit a rhd!
The gear set was 900 iirc then the bill from miles was around 300 but that was including powdercoating the casing at £80

Iv had that strut brace for about 7 years and never seen another like it, probably easier getting one made!
Regarding the gear set I would assume it would be cheaper to use them instead of the Labour and hassle trying to get a different box to fit and have the right ratios

Will be a track car but road legal, want to take part in time attack but only as a one hit wonder

Not sure what to do with the bonnet badge, keep it chrome, paint it black or try and get a carbon one?

oh cool, with the screen now fitted it did appear to sit a bit better, just not sure how im going to attach it either bond it or try and bolt it too

Just don't want it to fall off so might try and bolt it as well as it doesn't have much material on the spoiler to bond it too
