that's the spirit, seriously i like challenges.

just to give you an idea on metal costs. I had to get a replacement 350mm front section (lower) inner and outer valances, rockers and other small odds and ends. This came to 390 quid and thankfully I had a friend bring it as part of her business class allowance.

For the green panels, speak to Fig, but seriously expect to put some cash away for those. They aren't cheap but the quality is so worth it.

Love seeing a local project like this, I thought it was only my brethren back in the uk who took on suicide missions like this, then again, how they end up is nothing short of amazing.

Thanks Daniel

Im going to put aside alot of $$$ for metal.

I think it will take along time but in the end it will be exactly "what I want" :D
