Trimming? no, Cutting in half? Yes unless you dont need the rear doors.
V3trox:
So I had a few hours free to start cutting out the rears. I still have to cut out a bit more but that can be done tomorrow.
How far wheels stick out
Squiffy arch :(
Side shot. Once i've got the right amount of metal cut out everything under the arch will be painted black. It kinda sticks out in grey primer XD
Drivers side
Needs a bit more clearance I think
Typical, had my thumb over the flash....
I was going to take it off the drive and get a better shot but i've got ecu problems. Namely that i didnt disconnect the battery whilst installing the ecu and i think something has gone wrong. Will investigate later tonuight once i have charged the laptop.
V3trox:
Its all fitted up and looking good (well...apart from the need for some spacers) went to the petrol station to put air in the tyres but couldnt get enough light for a decent picture so you will all have to wait until i have cleaned it for a better picture.
Yes i still need to get a badge for the front and no I probably wont be painting the bumper (even though i bought all the paint for it XD)
Morgen:
Well this is... Interesting! Good job so far
