i like that dude looks smart, all that stuff with the air pump that looks as though it goes into the exhaust manifold can be removed (bar the silver bit thats actually atatched to the manifold other wise you'l have a hole in your exhaust) but its some sort of cold start cat pre warmer thing, basically pointless in having it, removing it will make the bay look alot cleaner too

Thnx mate

!
Yeah, was planning to remove that secundary airpump, but thanks for pointing out

!
Think I will do that somewhere this week, when the manifold is being fitted.

Thanks! I used a light dark smoke film, which I ordered via eBay. Ordered the dark smoke at first, but there was not enough light emitted with that one.
Will use that light dark film for the taillights as well.

Cheers m8!
What Im thinking about, exteriorwise some parts that I want to see painted gloss black, such as the roof. Some work to be done under the hood.
Also planning to have a chip custom made for this setup, & billing to go with that.
& will also mount a SIM-card GPS system.
And I'm sure I'll think of some other stuff along the way

.

Thanks

I applied this thick Carbon texture type of film for the strut. The fuelcap, windowpillars, passenger side of the dashboard are also treated with that.
The only real Carbon parts are the enginecover & the catchtank.

Thnx for the replies!

Yeah Big C, thought about it, but went for Polytrol, which brings the color back on those parts.

Here's an update:

Got my MOT recently, bought new rubber to pass it..

..'Sticking' with the UniRoyal RainSport II.

..'carbonised' the roof..

..fitted new antenna.

Stealth-mounted Insignia jets in Tigra plates..

The radio also has a SD slot (8GB in there atm) on the left side, a mini-USB (connectorcable to USB came with it) & AUX at the front panel. And Bluetooth for my cellphone.
