OMG!! That's gonna be amazing! I've seen those wheels on Magnus Walker's "277" Porsche this is a amazing build, and the best modded non stock I've seen around, looking forward to the next set of pictures :mrgreen:

I dont want to know final costs lol! especially as i've decided to step it up a level after this years volksworld show!!

/i havn't been up to much exciting but got some metal work done!

Horrible rear arch repairs and the need to move the fuel filler meant a complete new panel! Quite happy with the fuel filler placement.

Painted the inner rear corners before fitting the new ones so the paintwork is spot on in there!

corners going in

Engine lid hinge panel replaced, tailgate, rear valance and engine lid test fitted. About a third of the way with the metalwork now!

Looking awesome, stunning work. I was wondering how long it would be before those wheels ended up on a bay nice choice.
