Guest Andrew Report post Posted July 16, 2005 Today is Mtech1 day - back and painted - I won't say nicely cause it wasn't and the prep was rangi - but the color match works. Awaiting gus to finish it off with me. Some teaser pics hah. Painted mirrors alone make the car alot more modern. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Andrew Report post Posted July 17, 2005 ok - updates well it was a bit of a f**ker to fit but once it all worked out it was OK - the skirts don't fit so good with out the clips drilled into the car. Maybe bathroom sealant will fix it. I had 2 left fogs so i'll need to get a new set to fit the kit. Also - the back bumper caps are different with the body kit - so i'll try nab gus'. After much discussion - it was decided the kit was held on by the bumper trim - and sure enough - that worked.! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Andrew Report post Posted July 17, 2005 same thing with the back - under the trim. Still missing end caps and obviously a exhaust tip which i'll have to go buy now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Andrew Report post Posted July 17, 2005 there was some blank bits in the kit which i let gus cut out - that always pleases him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Andrew Report post Posted July 17, 2005 that will look awesome when its done. Are you going to do anything about an exhaust tip? just looks like its missing something coming out from the valance. Gus' racing dynamics one maybe? yes will do exhaust tip - gus racing dynamics was a whole muffler .. i'll just a get a 1 into 2 pipe. Gus and I both have rangi single pipes out the back of our kits now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
