Liking the look of the rear diffuser on yours too. How was that accomplished?? If you don't mind me asking. :wink:

Yes pics of light an intake, the box top right of engine bay if looking from the front 4 torx screws I think. That will have the connections you need

Cheers for the info Mark. Couple more pics for you.

Looks very smart

Looks really good mate.

I've got an M bumper in the loft, think I should get it sprayed and fitted soon. Been sat there a year.!!

I am not the biggest fan of any modding, but that does look good!

Very nice piece of custom work. Looks great

 

[jakblade]

Thanks for the comments RickRob and CJ10. I really like it too. Especially after I went out in it today and parked next to a standard looking E85, it did have really nice deep dish csl reps on it.... I'm so pleased I did this....

Cheers hopz. I like the fang protectors too. I have been waiting to see what they looked like on the car and how they fitted because dans6490 was talking about making some from stainless but needed a pattern. I am now happy with the result and have 2 patterns, 1 like the ones fitted on my Zed and another that doesn't protrude from the front and stays flush with the front contour of the fang. So will be getting in touch with dans6490 and we'll see what happens.

Well......Now for the 'arris end......measure,measure,measure,plan,draw,erase start again, over and over again until it's time to .......chop,chop,chop. Then fab and stick bits back on.






Getting ready for quad exhaust setup the masked off bit with the hatching on is where it's going to be cut out to accept grillwork.

Oh and to Sk93 for the bumper to play with. Cheers fella.

ohhhh this looks like its going to be interesting.... bookmarked

very clever approach for an M rear to accept prefacelift rear lights

RichardG got a bodyshop to blend a lower section M to his prefacelift rear bumper.. however if your approach is done well will look equally as good!

Cheers for the positive comments. Was thinking of maybe doing something like this too. .
There is some reinforcing behind the corners that may cause issues though.

 

[JINGLE]

yea the wheel arch fixings may get in the way unfortunately

 

[jakblade]

Just a little update. Bit of work done on rear, needs some fettling but starting to look something like.

 

[JINGLE]

looking good, will defo stand out against other rear ends!

 

[dans6490]
