made the bonnet close now :



just need to fill in the hole .. allthough next time , i will not cut the edge of the bonnet off ! stupid me .. but will be using this bonnet to make a plug later anyway .. and get a CF bonnet made

got two arches on :

fronts :


could do with being a little wider but will do for now ...

and rears :



also started on the dash , fitted the digi dash , and switch panel , also the boost gauge :



the other mount is for the touch screen monitor for the megasquirt

overall shot of front end :



had to mod rear arch , as it would have hit the exhaust system :



and i fitted the boot lid back on , just in case you have not seen a mini boot here it is :



just working on dash loom at the momment , might as well do it properly so it all works from the word go ....
