Finally found some time today to actually fit my own wingsert.

All cut areas paited with some black smoothrite. Then the wingsert was bonded in with black adhesive and OEM fixing points. I added 2 lower fixings too using some black plastic trim clips. Its fits nice and looks OEM.

Much nicer than the picture shows to be honest, but its hard to get an idea in these low light conditions.

Some new OMP subframes arrived today for the new seats too so i may have a play with these tomorrow.

Had a little cry tonight as the Recaro finally came out for its new owner. Droped the pair of Prodrives in on their new frames and loose assembled them in before i lost the light.
They look nice and are comfortable, so far so good. Pics to follow once i have some daylight :)

Pics as promised.

Sorry for the photos, flash plays havoc with low light and dark objects. They look nice in the flesh and feel quite comfy. Only a journey will tell lol.

New steering wheel setup should be here in the coming weeks. These jobs are just tiding me over at the mo till i can get the final bits to drop the motor back in. ("tick tock" "tick tock" lol)

:)

Lets face it, we all like photos. So finally some stuff to show you all. :)

Got my modified boost pipes back. And also got a nice little boss turned up for the Syvecs air temp sensor. I wanted to see wher was best to fit this once its was all mocked up. So now that can be TIG'd in place and then teh pipes can go for powdercoat.

Alyn at AS Performance came up trumps yet again with a new dipstick tube (lost the other one... dont ask) and also a new throttle body gasket.

Also my steering setup arrived from Works Bell in Japan. This consists of a billet ally boss, forged Rapfix quick release and also a larger paddle.
Momo wheel should be here next week to complement these bits. Really am very impressed with the quality of the Works Bell gear. Its beautifully made and i cant wait to see it fitted :)
