Can anyone make these scuderia fins, they will just bolt on under the bumper! Original ones are fibreglass.

Ahh well, decided that I wasn't happy with the fuel filler, so go to some fuel hose today, and will redo it tomorrow

Well..... A good weekend in all, bonded the rear quarters on, fitted the fuel filler cap, re welded the engine cover hinge plates to other side of box section, fitted door catches, and linked to interior handles, fitted door rubbers temporarily, "adjusted" off side bumper bracket (bent it vertical), so now bumper matches up better!
Fitted engine cover, and connected engine cover release to original boot release lever.
Back to work tomorrow for a rest :-)

It depends on whether your planning on extending the driveshafts and moving the suspension out as well as back. On the older kits there was no option to move the suspension outwards so it required that modification because the wheels sit closer to the arch. I haven't built a kit with the new suspension but I suspect it doesn't require something as severe.
