Looking good! that rear fitment looks like factory!

 

We getting close for paint.







Again we built a frame for the front bumper to make it stronger.





A similar piece is molded to the inside of the pumper so its just bolts on with perfect alignment. Also adding nice ducting for the charge cooler.

 

Looks great!! Coming along.

 

Last few in the raw pics. Some sanding a prep work being done. We should see car complete next week.

 

Wow, nice job by your bodyshop... I can see they pay very good attention to details by protecting your interior.

That steel bracket for the front bumper is awesome... it will sure make your bumper sturdy. Cant wait for the end result!!

 

AMAZING!!! Are you going to paint in a dust proof chamber??

 

Yes, that area is only for sanding. They have two awesome spray booths. Will try get some pics of that whilst they applying paint.

 

Looks like they are doing an amazing job. Cant wait to see it when done.

 

May i ask whats the cost for doing all this ?

Plus why prior parts are fibre glass and not abs plastic ?

It would not cost over 10k for the kit if its fibre glass

 

The car looks amazing, first BS conversion in South Africa
What colour did you decide to go with?

 

Can't wait to see the final mean look!

 

Couple more pics. We had issues with bubbling so baked stuff for a while and more prep work was needed.











and finally into the spray booth she went.

 

looking real good! She's getting close to being done! Can't wait to see the final results!

 

wow! keeping the palladium silver!

 

I am in South Africa so work like this is substantially cheaper than anywhere else so quoting a price would not apply.

I dunno about the price of the kit vs the fibre glass. I guess you pay to play. The kit does not seem to be all fibre as the exposed areas seem to have a different type of covering to usual fibre that I have seen in the past.

 

With the way things can be wrapped these days there was no point changing the colour. Am going to see how the skirt and bottom of front and rear bumper look with gloss black and if I do not go with the carbon fibre skins I may do the roof in gloss black and the mirrors. Although the car is very strong I prefer conservative looks.

 

What wheel setup are you going with?

 

I got the ADV 5.2.1 that where recently being sold on the forum. They where for Black Series fitment and after doing some calculation and measuring they where the closest fit compared to other options.

 

Doors on and things are starting to blend nicely. She is crying for the new wheels and suspension now.

 

 

wow. that's purdy.

 

WOW! Looks like not only do they do great work, but work fast. Can't believe how quickly they are going and looks like a super high quality job.

 

Coming out great Georege.

 

can't wait for the final product

 

What an amazing project! That thing is going to be a superb piece of machinery when it's finished. You must be like an expectant father !? Congrats George
