Hi JD I have been watching your progress with pleasure, your a talented man with cars.
As for the fuel cover badge, hard one it does look good on black or with carbon fibre, but im not sure on the red.
As a thought an alternative idea what about getting your daughter to do a shadowed or faded look logo for it, ie a darker red than car colour?
Or a clear one showing off shinny fuel cap hehe.

On side note reference to OEM 360 seats. Pug seat runner is 520mm outer edge to outer edge, OEM 360 is 460mm outer to outer so custom runner plate needed.
 
Keep up the excellent work.  ::)

Regarding the seats:

How is the floor hight in the pug? I heard some builders are experiencing problems with seats sitting to high in the car, because the roof is lowered... that where racing seats though...

What is your experience so far?

Hi dman thank u for the offer well appreciate it  but I think at this stage there's probably as much time rebonding a new cover on as finishing this one however if I'm not happy with this one wen finished I will take u up on it if that's ok cheers jd .

As for the seats I haven't had mine in yet to try ,watch this space lol .

evening fella.. now I do have some little ferrari badges like that somewhere, no idea where if I'm honest but I have.. lol  Have a look for ferrari tie pin or pin badge.. I think that's what I purchased.

It's down to preference in the end.. I've looked at it twice now, first time I liked it, now I'm not so sure.. lol keeps changing.

Hi,

Don' know how tiny your chrome horse is, I've got 2 that are around 2cm which I guess is a similar size to the pic. If they're a better size than what you have you can have them, just pm address and I'll stick them in the post.

Cheers

Rich.
