Body is now pretty much complete, as is the engine bay, minus the headlight brace thingy. Body just needs the lights installed and the number plates. Added mesh to front bumper...oh and I still need to just paint the front lip black.
Bonnet seems to fit looser now fr some reason, as if the front fenders widened or something, but I think once finished it should be ok. Still working on the hinge for it but have barely any materials to make it so am scrounging around finding things that might work.
Wheels I'm keeping stock because I the black suits the metallic blue perfectly and helps make it look mean. These pics were taken at night so apologies for the darkness.
Some touch-ups to do for the final finish but so far looks ok...I have no idea how to wire it so it lacks that level of detail which I would've liked
. I'm gonna try and also apply cf decal to the underside of the bonnet. I'm guessing I'll need to apply a coat of smoke over it though (from looking at other people's cf work) to help make sure it's set onto the bonnet, because I doubt using the normal method of just water, will adhere it enough.
Just leaves the interior to complete now (the bit I hate doing) and it should be finished pretty soon. Thankfully in the UK we're getting some pretty decent weather now so I'll hopefully be able to take some nice outdoor pics of it. Panel lines I guess could have been darkened, but I don't have anything to do so, so will have to stay this way I'm afraid. I think I need to put on a pretty wet coat of clear too because I'm just not getting the glassy finish you pro's achieve
.
Next update hopefully with interior shots and the final stages just before completion.
