Nice headlamps. Are they an indicator too?
thanks, yeah totally understand there not for everyone.Indeed they do, the halo pulses amber then the drl slowly fades back in after. Ill have to do a video to show them working there pretty cool (all credit to damians3, saw them on his S first but the black variation)

Very nice!
Do like the exhaust system with the pipes like that
thank you, they was setup like that with the big 6" cans before i even bought it, so i just went with 3" to stop grounding and left the setup the same, i think through the middle gives better clearance possibly?Do like the exhaust system with the pipes like that
They are abit Marmite the ol halo headlight's, I think it's those green hoses you admire the most tho richard
@LeTVR
Think your right there, judging by the scrapes on my centre box it must of been that which I heard at the one classic car show meet up down knowle. Must say generally I do clear most speed bumps around Birmingham tho

Well done Steven...if it every breaks down, you could pick it up by the exhausts like a wheel barrow....
No, seriously, good job, well done
And re grounding, it is always the hockey stick Esmeralda that ground on a V6. Don't think the rest ever get hit.
Thanks Andy, blimey might add that to my gym regimeNo, seriously, good job, well done

why thank you glen, thought it was about time the phantom appeared.
Will be testing it out this weekend, its had ALOT of work done to it.
Yep they are a tad modern, was trying to find the balance by getting the chrome face variation but I've kept the original headlights too.
I'll pop the bonnet & unleash the green upon the world once I change over my air intake.

Cheers, must confess it was more of a toned down mid shade of green shown on the website when I ordered.
Yeah was just a seat cover to stop mechanic dirtying my newly trimmed seat.
Main thing is the spine of the car is all solid now, no more rust!
If ever it got sold on in the later years ive actually kept the original headlights etc so stuff can be put back the way it was if need be.

Great to see the project completed. Sorry if this has already been done to death, but which front indicators are those?
thank you its good to finally have it back, no problem, the actual lenses are just aftermarket BMW E30 cost around £15 off ebay last year. The units themselves are sealed LED ones off a VW something, got them rigged up as sidelights for mot purposes (will end up changing them for white ones i think), my indicators are rigged up as a amber halo ring now that pulses then returns back to DRL white.SJS357 said:

Cheers simon, yep for sure I'll be in one of my green machines Look forward to seeing it in the future.

What is the body colour? Mine is "Ash Green" I think.....
Yep, mines metallic ash green, does look darker on the photos than in the flesh I thinkTarmac Tickler said:
Do we know how many variants of Ash Green TVR used?
I thought yours looked a familiar colour.
Well i found out that the body code under my bonnet was a completely different colour to the paintwork on the car (which is original), in the end i ordered tester from a website that assured me the code i was looking for was 0823b ash metal green (i think it was) not 0532b, there sample was an exact match too.I thought yours looked a familiar colour.

Go on, show us the engine bay
Please imagine it without the blue air intake (black on order), its actually quite nice when you stand abit further back & take in the initial 'fk thats bright green' moment.. thanks gents, appreciated. It certainly does contrast, i guess i just thought hey, it was about time i 'go green'..
