Where did you get the speaker pods from?
Look so much better after a bit of tarting. :thumbsup:



Ebay mate.

I'll have a look for the link.

Evening all!

Car's back from paint. Sorry - didn't have the digital camera so they are scanned in photos from a disposable camera. Doh!

Love the finish and can't wait to see the interior if thats what the sneak peak is about, one little thing that I'm not keen on is the way the decals have been finished on the rear quarter but that's me being very very picky indeed, cracking looking little car you have there and after such a long time I bet your made up.

I have to agree with Migliamayhem, the decals have been fitted wrong on the rear quarter and look weird

It may look weird, but it matches my interior, just wait and see..... :thumbsup:

Edit: oh, and I think not running to the seam strip looks weird! Everyone to their own I guess.

As you may have seen in this thread HERE, I recently picked up a one-off custom interior created by Andy @ Optimise Automotive (roberts on here).
