Hey thanks

Antman is in JHB so with transport and all it would be rather difficult, But at least I got a Windscreen Company in PE that sold One to me with weather strips and fitment.

Visited the body shop yesterday and she's looking better and better.

Decided to do the FLUSH look thing on the bootlid, Removed wiper, antenna, bootspoiler and window washer on roof, and had all those holes filled.

The bonnet is looking much much better, but still not 100% so I will replace that later with one of JAPSPECS bonnets.

The "tuner" agreed to remove the motor and fix the problem with the sump free of charge, I just hope they do not stuff up the new paint job on the fenders etc. I think I will use old blankets loosen the fender bolts and fit the blankets between fender and chassis and then let them hang over the sides..... or something. Yip I know PARANOID :oops:

It should be back on monday/tuesday will post pics asap.

Nothing wrong with it , it's just been taken out of the car, lying on the floor in my garage..... And I will not be using a lot of things, so was thinking of making up my own one, with a universal FUSE box. And also no carpet in the car to hide that big ugly fat harness..... :roll:

I am just not sure, about the lights, electric windows etc if the need controller boxes etc

so its a stripped out track car?

then i would definitely rebuild a new harness. there is so much useless crap on that harness, it is ugly, and it weighs your car down unnecessarily.

have a good look at the wiring diagram from the fsm, and you will quickly find out what is and isnt needed!
