These are some pre paint/filler shots taken yesterday.

Have removed the bar behind the seats head rests and will fill in the holes where the bar used to be.

The car has been sent away to a special friend of mine whos a proffesional Autobody Spraypainter/ Ex College Lecturer for spraypainting and he's very good with an airbrush :).

I'm a waiting on the main metal frame to return looking really out of this world, if the stuff he's done already is anything to go by :)

Will also be changing the rims to possibly some dubs or other Bburago rims. I have two turbos an intercooler and some piping aswell. So who knows.. may even make it a twin turbo viper! :) :giggle

Will update this thread as things progress, prob when the car gets back from the paint shop :) :giggle

I really like the look of this car wthout the rear top bar! gives it very smooth lines in my opinion! :cheers

:iagree . I really helps the car's stance by turning a brute into a sleek, almost Italian design. Now we can finally appreciate the long swooping rear fender line. Very nice. Can't wait to see the final product... :nicejob :nicejob
