Not much holding that paint on is there Robin.
-
^^^^
Paint is involved with the new mod but it ain't carbon wings (or fenders).... Not yet but still on my list when funds eventually allow. Other financial commitments to honour first.
-
Hmmm... black roof?

Hmmm... black roof?
....If I was doing that I'd vinyl wrap not paint it :happy2:
-
Youve lost me then... so it involves paint? And isnt wings?
99% of your mods are all functional so i'm struggling to see where paint will gets involved here.
-
^^^^
That leaves 1% that could be cosmetic.
All should be revealed in the next 24hrs, though could be 36hrs. I'm surprised no-one has guessed it so far.
-
CF B Pillars?
-
CF door cards?
CF bumper?

Looks a bit rotten........... I know not the mod, but are you getting that sorted?
-
Ps carbon slam panel?
-
Post winter detail ready for spring? ?
-
he was on about getting a removable roll cage a while back. Could be that!!
-
CF engine cover?
-
Is it a carbon fibre cod piece, to keep you contained in the VAG babes section. :innocent:

.... :signLOL: - You're a star with your sense of humour, TC - I like the idea of that, but no, it's not. Thinks Black Adder series in Prince Regent's time.

You wouldn't believe it but I've just been looking for an image of a carbon codpiece!! No luck though, but did come across some interesting sites!! :grin:
Robin is it a carbon fibre middle finger warmer?? It must get cold always stuck up like that :signLOL:

I'm very surprised none of you guessed it - You guys are always so quick to suss things. Here's another (very strong) clue:

Not cod piece but carbon lunch box? :smiley:

The clue was right in front of us! he is getting a modded and painted up engine cover! With the carbon strip to replace you FSI one!

Now you'll need clear/see-through bonnet, Robin. :wink:

Very tasteful Robin :happy2:

....Thank you, Alex :drinking: - Tasteful is always what I try to be.
I'll write up a How-to in the thread I already have in that section on the Evoms cover. Though I don't know anyone else with an OSIR carbon centre strip to modify if they wanted to. I was going for an OEM-Plus look but perhaps it's kind of OEM-PlusPlus.

^ Early stage of aluminium paint. Cut from my original 'silver grey' OEM plastic centre strip:

The design idea was mine but my very very good friend Dan at BIALI HQ did ALL the work and added his expertise in the detail.

Thats what I said back on page #2, Robin..
CF engine cover?
Looks great :happy2:

^^^^
I already had the carbon strip engine cover and this latest mod was to add the 'FSI TURBO' badge. Your guess was by far the closest :happy2: :congrats: :congrats: :congrats:
