painting the roll cage today... now its operation tidy up, fit new black headling and full new black carpet set...

then its a full mop down and polish for the paintwork, full huge service, new fron suspension joints bushes, full geo, new brakes all round, then maybe it will be done.

If i can get the interior and bodywork sorted for the RS day at Oulton, I'll be a happy chappy.

will do one day yes, i've so much to do on it, but once the interior is in, i'll be happy to start using it again, it looked awful as it was, when its all trimmed out nice it'll be fine.

yes - pink... i dont want pink accessories, just the cage, wheels and graphics. I was toying with pink stiching on the alcantara but have decided against it, as it is its not that hard to change.

Trust me, it looks better in the flesh!

Well I warming to it. (As long as you don't go over the top with it.) Why have boring old guards red, when you can stand out from the crowd? :bounce:

its sunny, so i thought i'd roll it out. was an interesting drive back into the garage with no seat :roll:

Honest thoughts... i'm not 100% myself, other alternative is satin black.

No, don't paint it satin black. 100% it looks better with the pink cage.

You could do with some pink in the engine bay too. (Not to much, just the fan or something.)

I see where you're comming from Lindsay, but I think that might be overkill.

If you mean satin black instead of the pink err..... no, orange or yellow would be good.
Decent size garage you have there I'm very envious!
