No - but seriously considering it, so will be watching this thread closely...

I have seen a thread a while back, so stick steve edwards in the search (see below - there are several threads).
It looked a major piece of work, and leaves you with a thick black band around the edge of the perspex IIRC. The TVR Mark 3 conversion looks to my eyes to be the neater solution.

Steve did mine last year. Very happy with the quality of his work.

I think that looks very nice!

Ordered mine on Wednesday (gone for the tinted lenses and matt black cowls) - plan to do the job myself.

Watched the video about 100 times!!!

That does look very good, I've always quite liked the original open look but that could sway me. Stunning

I have a darker red car, Alun - and have gone for the smokey lenses - I will do a post when I start doing it

The video makes it look simple (to a point), but some of the steps take a long time (curing and the such like) - and after speaking to Steve, asking a multitude of inane questions, I am sold.

..........and agreed - it looks bloody stunning

I'll be reading your thread with renewed vigour Nosh. I once worked with mastic and the like, I might well follow you and do it myself.
