Im guessing you will be easy to spot as you will have a big smile on your face.
Has it got the bumpers on?

Is that a custom windscreen I see? It doesn't look like the Z3 original.

The screen has a chrome scuttle moulding and chrome finishing strips to give that illusion.

Wowee. So we can source donors that DON'T have the chrome windscreen surround?

Wow! You've developed this quick - very impressive, looks spot on.

Really interested to see the chrome in real life - was the grille surround done the same way as the bumpers?

Hi mate sorry I missed you today but had a good old chat with the main man (who you can tell I can't remember the name of!). Incredibly impressive product - the windscreen disguise brilliant. The chrome work was excellent - there is no way you'd know those bumpers were grp unless told. Paint stunning and excellent shutlines but the thing that really impressed me most? the swage line on the side of the body - razor sharp, razor straight.

Once the interior pack is in the resale values will be bullet proof.

Well done

Hi smash
I was only there on Sunday , helped Brian on the stand as he's just had a baby a couple of days before and needed the extra support as he was on his own


Really interesting day for me, the overall response was very promising ��
a different clientele to what Dna are used to ,from people who don't like the modern Ferrari stuff that Dna do , to owners of other kit cars that didn't want the faff of a ground up build
again .

Happy to get the professional approval also , from build agents to painters
Who were REALLY looking into every detail on it trying To find faults ��


Found it hard to stop everyone opening doors and boot and bonnet
Poking and prodding all items ! People don't care that it's someone's car !

My car is going back to Birmingham to have seats fitted then I will be bringing it home to London for a bit until Brian's ready for the other interior bits

Can't wait now it looks like the better weather is coming ��
