    Not yet as he hasn't mentioned anything about lights, but I'll be modifying the front engine exhaust soon, so I'll be sure to check with him when the time comes.

    Not sure how this will come out, but hopefully it will be as I envisage it.

    Are you robbing his idea of a 10" exhaust

    Headlights should look good, is that an E30/E34 outer headlight you've opted for? Nice work anyway, next time I see you I'll make sure to bring some seed for your plant pots

    Back to the bodywork today:

    first of all I cut the wing away and folded 'tabs' along the line the arch will be bonded to, then screwed the arch onto the tabs, I also added strips of metal to join the top and side of the arch (all these will be removed once the arch is bonded from the inside.





    And then bonded the arch on from the back.





    once this has cured, I can remove all the screws and start on the outside.
