    Just read all 12 pages, where to start....

    That is one hell of a restoration project! Fair play for doing it.

    Thats bad news about the break in, fookin knobheads... but Congrats about the bambino! Top marks for keeping at it after all that crap (break in, not baby poo, lol!) aswell, can understand why you would want to throw the towel in!

    Anyways... wheres the updates??!! I, as im sure the rest of MIG do, look forward to seeing this progress further!
    Nearly finished building a C20XE nova...

    Not done funk all since march as new jobs and new kiddies are hard work but also looking at moving house so money isn't exactly abundant. Been buying odds and sods, daft clips and bushes etc. But my fav buy for a bit landed today and to say I was gob smacked by the quality would be an understatement. It's funking awesome and I mean awesome..







    I've seen a few carbon bits and bobs in my time even kevlar etc but the finish on this "second" bowled me over... Always wanted one chuffed I bought one it looks the part and fecking light as funk which means more beer and burgers for my fat middle aged ass

    Re: It's like a giant airfix kit crossed with a nova.....(56k unfriendly peeps)

    No it wasn't melmao How much did u end up paying?
    By the time my mate told me it was too late
    One the the best examples of a carbon bonnet imo and i have no need for a bonnet catch so it would of been spot on god dammit
    Definatly dont paint it, just get more carbon stuff so eventually the painted parts of you car are the odd bits

    £250 was at £200 for ages... TBH I couldn't believe I won it for so little. It's meant to be knocking the doors off £600. It has the bonnet catch etc they'd just forgot the safety catch mount and as I'm using bonnet pins I couldn't care less. All the others I've ever seen never have a safety catch mount any way. So to coin the phrase "bovvered?" not me.

    But trust me it's funking minter then I ever could of hoped matey..
