Will they fit under the mx250? Guess will soon find out...
Of course they will mate, do you think I'd go to these lengths will no planning. Chris has modded my kit.......
I've been planning this for months mate....
got mylittle boy tonight and tomorrow. By Tuesday night back will be fitted and all being well Ill drive it that night to the pub... half mx5 half mx250!
Not fitted but a shot to remind me why I started. I think it looks awwwwesome. Sooooo pleased I lowered it and fitted big fat/tall rear tyres. I have bonded the boot extension and the parcel shelf though. Got more trimming to do on the original arches and some more prep work, then the exhaust tail pipes. On Tuesday the rear gets fitted along with lights and number plate and then Im road legal again. A few more days working on other jobs then Monday the front comes off stick the front on fit the lights etc and then by the time Im due back at work its on the road, obviously not painted but Im doing this as a challenge to myself to see if you really need a second car whilst building a kit..... Only time will tell......
so I managed to get a couple of hours on and get the headlining done..
i made a bit of a mistake in roll of foam backed vinyl but sorted it and it looks cool and to be fair It was extra work on an area that wont even be seen
Tomorrow work on the arches, bond headlining in and fix roll bar properly..
Any posting tips welcome Nick I'm updating here, Southern kit cars and my own blog. I have a lot of non petrolhead friends that are very keen to follow the progress..... Any suggestions welcomed....
