Will have to look into these arms! Certainly help the clearance issues

For sure. I just asked Carl to extend the coilover mounting point out 25mm and drop it 5mm.

 

I'm sure he could move it anywhere though.

First coat of primer on, pretty much. 

 

Just need to do the door shut on the other side. Quite a few bits that will need some more filler before another coat.

Thanks guys, I've now gone round it with some dolphin glaze filling all the little imperfections ready for another coat.

Its had another coat of primer on the outside. Still far from perfect, hopefully some high build will help when I've got a cage sorted.

 

Going to prime, stonechip (using gravitex) and top coat the underside soon. Hence this happened today, along with lots of rubbing down. Shells pretty easy to lift up like this on my own, luckily!

Can you get the radius arms done in this style as well? Who did them and a rough cost? Or did you design if so any drawings?

Jonny your mini seems to have fallen over.

Another update...

 

stonechip is done! i used upol 1k acid etch in rattle cans (used 3) and then gravitex (4.5L overall) in 1L bottles that screw straight on the bottom of the under body spray gun i had.

 

Its come out really well. I like the textured look. I'm tempted to use it in some areas on the inside with a little thinner in so it goes on a bit smoother.

 

I did one full coat on the under side and then another coat or two in the areas that would be worst affected by stones.

 

I need to put some colour over it to but i need to make my mind up!!

 

 

 

I had to rebuild around the steering column bit that's why a few holes are missing.
