Just a few lil things ive added & changed over along the way, having some new decals done & a custom tvr sunstrip (to hide milkyness in corner of windscreen rolleyes ) but wont be for a few weeks yet will post up some pics when i get them.

Got these from amazon along with some iron on badges for around £10 cheap as chips but look rather neat


'Iron on' TVR badges for the mats, (forgot to add the logo when i ordered them from autostyle)


British born, british made wink



Decided on changing the typical amber lenses to clear, with the appropriate bulbs, i used osram chrome amber to eliminate the 'fried egg' effect



Side repeaters changeover, a lil fiddly but end result looks tidy & a much tighter seal than my original which were rattling about like a junkie waiting on a fix



After searching around for stainless steel wheel nuts (and failing) act couldn't get hold of any when i rang up, i got some zinc coated ones off ebay which tidy it up for now

Now that looks ace! I think the old amber side repeaters look a tad outdated, your oval ones look neat, I was considering them myself, did you have to adapt the original hole in fibreglass at all?

I used some modern ford ones (fiesta I think). No adaptations in the fibreglass needed but strangely one ended up slanty so had to cut some lugs off the new repeater unit to make them level.
think i nearly got the same ones off ebay but weren't sure if they would of fitted without tweaking the fibreglass hole abit, i had trouble getting the original ones out with them lil clips on the inside i pressed them both in but just wouldn't budge, ended up snapping one off to ease them out.

oh and nice alloys what size are they?
