Looks great Daz really like seeing updates in this thread! - so apart from paint and fuel filler cap is there anything happening on the outside?
Are you planning on reinstalling the front foglights in the gaps?

not sure yet chase_d - I have the quad low rise headlights to go in so maybe the front will look too "busy" with fog lghts aswell - I'll install them a nd see what it looks like. Also there's defo black mesh going in for the main air intake on the front bar. Onto the mesh I'm going to fix a black "Midship Runabout" emblem to one side; It'll be sat inside the mouth of the front air intake opening so wont be immediately visible unless you look for it - a little touch for those who know..
Elsewhere on the outside there are a few black touches - front indicators, side repeaters, fuel cap, potentially a couple of black "Midship Runabout" emblems above the side repeaters (if they aren't too bug or look cluttered when I test fit them); erm, I'd imagined the wheels to be a little darker in colour than when they arrived but i think they do the trick - there'll be huge gun metal wilwood calipers behind them with huge shiny slotted 310mm disks front and rear. Hopefully get hold of some black number plates, and I ordered a TRD 2000GT gel coat (copy) logo, in black with red letters last night from some emblem manufacturer in the US.
that's about it I think

The pack comes with two, but I ordered them in black background with red lettering and red outline - I'd say you can have one but it prob won't suit your tangerine paintwork! [88]

Also, picked up my recond dash today - it's been re-covered in black leather with red double stitch around all of the major lines, which matches the rest of the interior's re-upholstering - looks very fkn noice...

A place called First Class Motor trimmers (Les Smith), he's at 2/1792 Albany Highway in Kenwick - really nice bloke, pretty good and reasponably priced too. i got a quote from some redneck operation in Midland and they quoted $2k a seat for re-upholstery (AND I was supplying the materials) and the woman sounded like a right junkyard dog on the phone; Les did the whole lot for $550 - i chucked him another $50 to do my gear gater too - looks sweet... defo recommend him
