Front bumper needed modifying to fit to the wider 22b arches. Was split to allow shaping to the arches and then fibre glassed over.

Spolier isn't fitted in these pics and will be sitting a lot higher when finished but it gives a general idea.

All the holes in the shell have been sorted and the 22b kit all in situ. Not much to do now until it comes back from the paint shop.

Engine bay starting to get mocked up. Both the twin scroll full race and GT spec gen 2 headers didn't clear the dry sump so I'm still undecided whether to rotated or front mount set up.

Rear view with spoiler. We mounted it another 3-4 inches higher and it looked spot on so Gaz is getting some CNC machined mounts made up

First polycarbonate window fitted. Gaz gave the window extra strength by screwing it in and then used some silicone to bond it to the seal. He also fabricated 3 brackets to help keep the window closed when at speed
