Cheers man!

Purely just to keep the front looking clean and simple, plus my front number plate will be going where the n/s indicator unit would be just incase I need any extra cooling holes in the centre of the front panel.

Couple of weeks ago I got all the stuff that had been previously bodge taped to the car fitted up properly

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Made a start on the wiring loom with the assistance of my mate Ant, this is the part I've really not been looking forward to as it's such a difficult job to get looking nice.

 

Rear loom is all sorted, loom for the removeable front is all sorted, engine bay side of the loom all got finished off yesterday too. Just the mass of ******* behind the dash to wire in now.

 

Stuff..

 

A shelf for it all to sit on

 

a tea break

 

a nest in the making

 

a weirdo who enjoys this sort of thing

 

figuring out the route

 

engine bay 99% wired, just one temp sensor to terminate and sleeve once I've got a boss in my top hose for it.

 

 

got my idiot lights fitted tonight too, still ignore the aem, that'll be going

 

and this one just because it made me sit back and think '*******'

just lacquer it and go! great build

[Lt-SilverDragon]

That looks amazing, love the whole look of it.

[Turbo Nick]

As photobucket has ******* everyone over I really cba to sort out rehosting and such like so it's killed my build thread. 

 

I'll just carry on over on Instagram instead @Turbo_Nick

[Turbo Nick]

Haven't updated this in ages, after photobucket took a massive **** I kinda lost arsedness and just stuck to Instagram.

 

Good news is the car's "finished".... well, it's MOT'd and i'm working through the niggles and getting some miles on her ready for the summer :)

[minimissions]

Love this thing, I also had a good look around it at Bingley wicked looking mini and you can see all your work that has gone into it

[megamini_jb]

Wow that is nice! 

 

What camera/lens do you use for the photos of it parked on the street?

 

Thanks 

[Turbo Nick]

Thanks guys, its far from perfect but itll do for me.

Camera/lens is a Nikon D750 and a Nikon 70-200 f2.8 VR2, wider shot was probably my sigma 35mm f1.4 art lens.
