[DanThe]

Yep
Just recieved these pics back from my pal at the powder coaters

I wasnt even being serious!

Will it hold up ok? I imagine it being on fire after some spirited driving

[Nato_e30]

Haha yeh itl hold up well, the lad who did my coating has done his on his track car

Another little update ive just fleeced and edged the other interior tidy up panel.
The weight of all these panels come in at 2kg

[Nato_e30]

So today ive dyed the mint cond dark blue carpet black and removed the thick heavy crap of the underside of it, also wet vax'd the sparcos and fitted a omp slider on the drivers seat
Before


After

[Nato_e30]

Today ive generally been giving the inside a good clean and sealing up areas that need sealing, ive also removed all the thick foam of the underside of the carpet to shed some wieght as im refitting a carpet in it.
Also ive sorted out the messy leaky sunroof blank
Before


I nipped down the scrappers and chopped a roof of a e36 so id have a neat profiled panel, measured and cut.



Edges filed and corners curved and etch primed



Tiger sealed and riveted into place


Perfect profile

[Nato_e30]

Refurbished throttle and blasted/ powder coated inlet

[Nato_e30]

Hard at work this morning, ive trimmed and fitted a fleece roof lining, alsstarted to reassemble the interior
Foam and sound deadening stripped of the underside of the carpet, so light now


Lining




Opologys for the crap pic quality its making all the black look grey. The dash has been a nightmare to fit, also the cage bolts are to big so ive gotto get some more so I can bolt it all in.

[Rosc0PColtrane]

That dash is lovely.

Today ive ground the revets of the sunroof panel and prepped it to give a skim of body filler and refinish.


Ive fked about with a spoiler


Fitted the drop links to the arb

Finished assembling the intake
