That project is the absolute nuts nut. Stunning in every way. The carbon roof is just sex. One question, I will be replacing steps,inner and outer sils , and a pillars on mine when I make a start on my project, would it make sense to brace the shell to keep the door gaps right or did you only do this because the floor was coming out. I quite fancy a new floor mind. What sort of price does the floor come in at and is it bmh or moss' own? Was it a nightmare to fit or ok? I realise the roller made things much easier.

Hi and thanks for the coments about the car, the whole floor is about £150 and its a BMH panel it is a very easy job to do if you are going as fare as I did as every thing that attached has to come out and it more than you think...lol but the fitting was easy. I would say yes to the brace question its a quick job to tack one in and does help keep thing were they should be! do loads of measuring and when you start putting it back togrther don't be worried about putting stuff on and off a few time before to start welding! I was in no mad rush with mine and so it's got some of the best line and gaps I have ever seen on any Mini! so the about of prep you put in will always repay you back in the end >_<
