Re: BB4 -Body panels ready to fit

Post by vanzep » Sun Jan 13, 2013 4:43 pm

been working on some body panels so i can put the lude back to milano red - ive been storing parts up until i had everything i needed - then it was time to do any repairs and/or paint them - bit of a polish and now theyre ready to fit - just need a couple of dry days :)
will be taking off the ww front bumper and replacing it with custom front bumper with spoon lip
also fitted cooling plate
refurbed front bumper support
new jdm 1 piece black backed front headlights which i got from pedrodogg66
smoked front indicators/reflectors
nostrils repsrayed black - thanks to merlin for the paint
swapping both phantom grey front wings for dinos old milano red front wings (with vtec badges)
and ive already fitted the carbon fibre bonnet from bris old lude 8-)
pics dont truly show how good these parts now look

just need to change the loom in the drivers door and swap over the locks and mirrors

Once the panels are on i will need to think about getting the rest painted to match in.
