There is the c20let mini with split revos, but I'm not sure if there from revolution like that or what? And there 13s, tens would be so cool!


Where did you get your boot liner from?

you can buy 13's already split

I don't think 10 revos can be split

I think the revos splits are fake ones. 10" one's split would look cool though. The boot kit is from optimise automotive. I have head lining and dash rails too match as well.

Right. Got a few other bits done over the last few weeks. I changed my rear window insert to black. Need to do the front one but I need a new windscreen so can do that then.

I also started to play about with some VW hubcaps for the banded steels. I only have 1 this size though. I bought 5 others which turned out to be a bit smaller. DAM IT!



I also wired in a rev counter and made up a speedo to go in the car. Made up of 3 not so good ones.

While doing this I also painted the needles a nice hot pink. No one will really notice this but its a nice touch and a bit different ha.



The new dash fitted.



I still need 3 magnolia gauges to fill the 3 holes in the middle. I need to buy a pair of new speakers to go in the air vent holes and retrim my other pair of dash rails and swap them over with these ones. Plan is to get all the bits together and do it all at once. Also gonna do the windscreen then as well.

Still waiting on getting the painting done as the guy who was gonna do it had been ill. Cant be helped though. Hoping to have it done for riv run but will shall see.

Anyway I think thats it for now.

Thanks.

I spy some line green aviators

[leaky]

Ha. Yea. Those holes make a good glasses holder. Not sure what I will do when I fill them with gauges ha.

OOOO I just remembered I also have my Inno glove box/shelf thing. When I move the speakers to the dash I will get round to fitting that as well.

Loving the wheels mate realy goes with the rest of the car !

[leaky]

Cheers mate! Once of them has gone flat again which is bloody annoying so I need to get inner tubes.

The vw hubcaps are class man!

[scotty_1987]

Double post here but I kinda just skipped to the last page...but have now read down through it and have to say you are a legend man!lol
I love your ideas, so original it's great

Mini's lookin' good!

Some unique styling. Those banded steels look the business!

[leaky]

Cheers guys. Yea I like to do things little differently. Some things are a bit marmite. I was stood next to 2 old people at brooklands who did not approve of the sticker bombing lol. I really need to try and find some 3 more hubcaps the same size as the others so I can start chopping them about to fit. I have a few other ideas kicking about but I really want to sort out getting the car looking smart. Needs a touch up on some bits of paint and really needs 2 new sills and a drivers side door step. Probs end up doing the a panels at the same time too.
