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.

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.!

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.

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?
