onestep

Yup Josh, very nice indeed. Just toying wether to paint, leave laquered.

 

Onestep. Let me know about this body shop as Im looking out for a decent place. Are you coming to the local gathering on April 16th?

I can pm his number to you if you want. He is in yaxley go down and check out my car's new paint and see for yourself he is a wicked painter.

Would love to come down but im not in the country till the 22nd april.

Looking good. i was going to paint mine but i don't think it will look all that good painted there not very flat. But if you want it painting i know a good body shop my car is there at the mo and its close to Peterborough.

If only it was a week later i could of come along. Flying back on the 22nd to come put the beast back together fresh paint can't wait to see her.

Mine In the alps

Looking good,

one question,how does the c/f roof bond into the car ?

You leave part of the forward roof there and and the back of the roof and about 1 inch either side of the drain channels and the cross brace to bond to.

Just got back from my holiday in oz. Went down the body shop to check progress and its all looking very nice in side all excess metal removed and unwanted studs.

Here are some pics.

Awesome work mate, if you don't mind me asking, how much did the CF roof cost? How much of a mission was it to fit?

 

I think it was £475 delivered.

It doesn't look to hard to fit it will be the last part to be fitted.

 

Cheers, i think its the same as the ones ive seen for sale, i do want for the future defo! So what was the car like to drive with 420 bhp lol.

Its a performance trim roof.

Its not as bad as you might think with that much power going though the front wheels. It leaves most cars for dead in gear performance I had a guy in a R8 asking me why i kept leaving him for dead and what was under the bonnet.

Round the nurbergring i was hitting 170mph on the fast flowing part before chickening out.
