yeah with the title it will make more sence in a couple of years lol.
and the wall makes it look soooooo good. home job too.
thanks again for the comments everyone.

I just realised, it is not legal to "wall in" your gas tank. It needs to be accessible in an emergency, and having it like this is defectable. Your car and your life though, and it does look neat and tidy.

I've built side walls in my boot which just sit there nice and snug, no screws, no bolts. So I'm sure if you build something that has no screws or bolts and can be just pulled out it wouldn't be illegal. My side walls have never fallen out, there nice and tight but still easy to pull out by hand.

yeah i knew that actually. pritty soon (school holidays) i am going to to take it out and put it on a hinge and put a little 'access to gas tank' sign there. so then it is clearly visible to police/ fireies if there is an emengency.

Good idea. Once you've done it, I may just have to copy, if it works well, and still looks good!

Sick EB · 01-07-2007, 10:40 PM

Sick EB · 09-07-2007, 07:56 PM

thanks again matt

Sick EB · 23-09-2007, 03:55 PM

hello everyone again its been a while since i have updated this thread. i have spent a bit of money on a few extra things for it. i have put a new steering wheel- with the ea-ed boss kit (steering wheel addaptor), volt gauge mounded in dash, and as of yesterday custom made angel lights (yes the bmw type ones) ;)

next week im going to get the bonnet and front bar sprayed and the body touched up ready for all the car shows next year (and i get my p's).

i will be taking a while off work for exams so no mods will be happening during this time (saving money for schoolies). although i might do one of those home made electronic shift kits.

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO COMMENT- GOOD OR BAD, I DONT MID

and finally the pics:

LOW_XR · 23-09-2007, 04:42 PM

lights look hot. if i had standard lights id do that but not a fan on that gauge. just sorta sits there outta place but its your car.

BLKPHN · 23-09-2007, 05:51 PM

Wow the boot install look great mate, really really neat and well organised!!

DEVL-XR · 23-09-2007, 06:57 PM

Headlights look good at night, but I'm not a fan of how they look during the day.

+1 if you chromed the black parts of it then it would look stockish. just an idea

ORSMEB · 10-10-2007, 11:55 PM

Hot a fan of the headlights...may look better during the day though.
The gauge I feel doesn't sit right in the dash. It doesn't suit. Either does the steering wheel. It looks racey, but nothing else in the car does...

Sorry I don't feel the same way about it that you do...

Hopefully the respray at the front will bring it right up!

**Sorted** · 11-10-2007, 10:36 PM

Angel Eyes Rock - its good to be different...............

gngtho · 11-10-2007, 11:10 PM

comming up nice mate.

dont know about the angel eyes.

nice clean boot instal though.

keep em comming mate....

Sick EB · 30-10-2007, 09:17 PM

Now moved to where this thread really belongs.

Quiet times with the car these days. studying for exams has left me no time to do anything with the car + the financial situation with me isnt too good lol. after exams i will be working my *** off to get some money so i can get the car up to scratch for the geelong show. i have some good plans for this car in the next 5 months although im not going to say, just incase i dont get them all done!! ;)

JAKHMR · 30-10-2007, 11:29 PM

Good looking car mate. Love the colour. Nice & neat boot install too.

Sick EB · 17-11-2007, 04:45 PM

ok as some of you my know my car has been in the spray shop of the last week and an half and today i finally got it back, and i must say the guys at S&J smash repairs in campbellfield did a fantastic job. pic to come shortly

ORSMT-6 · 18-11-2007, 02:22 PM

X ORSMXR · 19-11-2007, 10:23 PM

Well i happen to know the owner so mine came out perfect, and so did another mate of mine. i also saw a couple of finshed cars there when i went to pick mine up and i could not see any fault and any of them

anyway here are some pics of mine finished. excuse the dust.

btw it has NOT been polished yeat and i recon its pritty shinny already.
