    Looks good, only thing I will see. In a crash that battery will come out and be a missile. Plate it underneath and bolt it that way. I done a similiar thing in my Tomcat, ripped half the boot floor out..

    cheers for the heads up but i rekon it will be okay as i have used a panal bond underneath the angle and it also has a seperate bracket which slips over the rear bumper bolts which had a nut on!

    well well, finally pulled my finger out and fitted my cooler... nice n tight fit, took aggges on the drive though around 5 hours! happy with it though and has cured a boost leak!






    just gotta re-locate my washer bottle tomorro and fit my manual boost controller, then fit my manifold and t28 when it arrives!

    Looks really nice, top quality job! Not so sure about the design on the new spoiler but can be nice with more mods

    the previous guy who had it had a carbon wing on and cut out notches so it would fit.. i paid 50 quid for the spoiler and both end bits.. im contemplating extending it and making my own ducktail spoiler as i originally wanted one but there a bit pricey for a skinflint like myself!!

    Like everyone's already said, I love the efforts and work you've put into this, must have taken a while too from stopping to take pics.

    Keep it up mate.

    cheers for the kind words lads... any way heres todays efforts (specially for you magicmat!)

    old VS new and i love it!


    so nearly there... came slightly stuck as i need a t28 intake flange which i have just ordered, i also need too tap a nipple for the actuator, and i need a few lengths of hose, but other than that no real problems! just doing it on the drive and in the wet is a pain!!!
