Re: BB4+A bit of Mugen on the side

Finally got round to fitting the Mugen sideskirts - I was only planning on putting them on for a quick look as I like the Eurobubble sides - thing is I quite like them and theyve saved about a kilo per side in weight :?
I will let the pictures do the talking

Good job Nick :) Glad you finally got rid of the bubbles and they're black to, so actually tie the lips in nicely too :D

Are these the (green? Or yellow? I forget!) ones you had?

I love mugen skirts but I have to say I don't think they go with those lips? The colour definitely works better but I think they're too understated against the 2 lips??? Plus the lips are sort of curvy and the sides are sort of square, so the lines don't follow through, if that makes sense? :?

'course this is all just personal opinions of course...

Im going to leave the mugen sides on for now - i like the all black lip look :) Maybe the pics dont quite show them at their best angles but they do flow well with the rear lip but maybe not so much so with the spoon front lip but i guess that the idea of having a added front lip is that it does sit a bit lower and is a bit more obvious if that makes sense.

Ive also fitted dinos old passenger door to replace my badly dented one - its only taken me 6 or 7 years to get round to doing this :roll: was a bigger job than imagined and not helped by the fact that the main relay was faulty and some of the lock mechainsm needed rebuilt (all after fitting the door) :evil: still its done and now the lude has some sleek lines along the side again :) thanks to Michael and Craig for their help and patience in getting that job out the way ;)

a few other bits done recently:

fitted new dimmer switch
fitted leather centre console arm rest
fitted clutch inspection plate which i got from jdmbb4

had to swap the piaa alloys back over to the oz alloys due to punture (not repairable)

redid centre exhaust gasket - got a bit more poke now :D

sorry no pics only boring words :?
