@ bex1971 - No its not all one kit i have moulded it into one kit as the fiberglass was that bad (note - it's not an extreme). Its taken about a year and a half so far. No im not worried what it weights  :)

Replaced the indicator bulb to a 21watt bulb

Drivers side rear light all wired

Spaghetti junction

Indicators all working at last just need to be wired into the mr2 harness



Rear lights all working

A friend in the UK sent me this over


A friend of mine bought his daughter a 106 starter car so i decided to give him a hand in changing the rear axel
Axel out

Secondf hand axel all re-done and put back in

All back in

Second section skimmed


Front bonnet skimmed

As you can see the low spots wher the black is

A few low spots left

Bonnet all sprayed black ready for block sanding

Blocked sanded and re-filled the low spots

Still on section 2 a few low spots this side of the kit was the worst due to the previous owner storing them in the corner of his garage in a heap

As you can see the skim looks heave but it light as you can still see the white gel coat underneath

Bonnet coming along

The 3rs section skimmed it looks heavy but its not if you look closely you can see the white gel coat

Do you plan on doing anything with the wheel arches to get a better line?
