Playing with Fiber-Glass.
Ugh horrid stuff to work with.Am still pulling stray & painfull fibers from places I didn't know I had.
Prepping & doing some light repairs on the front bumper.Ready to fit that grille.
I STILL haven't decided:carb-fib or standard open mouthed grill

The '33 Undressed.(over 18's only)

For anyone thats interested,note the upside-down designed fmic.None of the pipe work has to pass over the engine,this means pipes are kept cooler & shorter(easyer to control vac).
Some smallish cracks in the bottom splitter,unprovoked attack from a thug speedbump!

Also strengthened a few bits

You HAVE been having fun havent you?
Glad to see you gave some consideration to the IC pipework routing too.
The only wee criticism (if i may ) is the right hand side (left as we view it) end tank where it gets its feed....looks a little abrupt and poss restricted? Apologies if im very very wrong!
Otherwise excellent job!

Thankyou DF.Lhs 'narrow' in appearance is mostly cosmetic,as far as I can tell.Its opened up with a large,oval,diagonal vent internally.Seems to work OK.

Finished re-setting the bumper(Garage that repaired it couple months ago sat the bumper wonky & incorrectly).
Not sure if you can see the difference from a photo,but have raised it 23mm left 25mm right.Looks much better & ground clearance is now less of a prob.
The white grille is wonky-I just placed it there to see how it looks.

Looks ok to me mate. Such a nice aggressive front end on the R33's too.
