Cannot get over the attention to detail on this car!

 

[Zonda]

Thanks for the replies.

I forgot to mention I have a carpet in now as well.. also other stuff... but dont want to over do the pics.. already posted more than I meant to lol.

I'll post an update as things get sorted in a bit.

Had to get the seat mounts re-fabbed.. as my 1st attempt with the design didnt go to plan.. but fit like a glove now..

Matt, had them made... not cheap tho specially when u fook em up the 1st time.. :S just looked up some metal fabricator place and sent them the design.. u should be able to find them around most places locally.

Dont overly listen to the sounds with kickin bass... so opted for just a better player than the other one.. the quality of the sound even with just a new player sounds 10x better than the other one with the flippy spinny font on it.....and I get to see 'HIM' on dvd..

 

[matty J]

dont suppose you have your design so i can use it as a guide???

and whats the grovey switch for in the switch bit??

 

[matty J]

Bit of carbon in the back... hope to get some more soon..

and where did you get your carbon bits made i want to do the same on mine as the rear quartor trim looks gash imo

I didnt keep the design.. :S it was a bit of a discussion over the phone with the changes after my 1st balls up.. I just said add a bit here and cut a bit off there! lol.

The switch is for the charge cooler pump... I will be running a twin cooler set up in a few days... and that switch will be to turn the cc off so I dont get carb freeze when the weather isnt so friendly.

 

[matty J]

looks awsome well mines getting together just takes some serious man hours and money
will have to have a meet with both 5s

You've got a lovely car there, mate.

 

[Englebert]

Yeah... that is cool Zonda. Thought about replacing the dash with a Clio item or something? It lets the otherwise sweet interior down IMO.

 

[matty J]

cheers dude have emailed him so we will see

 

[GazFish]

That is... AWESOME!!

 

[B16DOE]

every time i look at this the car just gets better and better .keep up the good work

Yes mate, I have been thinking about that... but its one thing at a time... and kinda slow going. But after all the trim (more carbon hopefully if it goes to plan and other stuff I havent decided on) I fancy going fully digital with the dash... but this wont be till the other stuff gets sorted.. something like this..

Cheers VL. almost every day that its been sunny.. only rain stops play (last time was about 20 minutes ago lol) posted the spec earlier... but it changes by the month as its an on-going thing with tempory bits on..no point setting it up till its all on and dusted.. will take a while yet till its all sorted.

Yes I have all the orginal Reno mats with Reno stamped on them.. I can imagine there arent that many around.. but soz.. holding onto them as i still like them.

Quick update...

Have a few new pics... managed to get a few new bling bits under the bonnet and a new stage 3 head fitted.. so its just going to get a few miles on it till its set up.

The carbon is now fitted..

Loving this thread, absolutley amazing car, one of the best 5's I've ever seen. Only thing I'm not overly keen on is the wheels, but thats just my personal preferance.
