That's news to me, and alot of rally cars around the place. I do know that you have to have a collar around the filler hole to collect any spilt fuel when refueling and this has to drain back into into the tank.

Guards are done now, primed. Whole body needs to be block sanded and the another coat of primer applied ready for paint...still havnt decided on the colour, but have narrowed it down somewhat :(
Bonnet still has to completed...Got new custom manifold, with external flange so have to sort that out also...list never ends...so much for just wanting something cheap and economical :w00t: Although my 3cylindr swift is going great guns, good be the best buy of my meagre existence haha

Getting closer to paint...HAve also taken the little lights off the guards...and am looking at doing something with the boot garnish, maybe painting it the same colour as the car, not sure yet...any opinions. Have seen it done once before looks nice i think???

took the lines off completely.... just tried to make it blend in, cause the lines of the E6 dont line up anywhere with the VR4...

you should just be able to see it here.... your brother should be able to blend it in more then i could (well as far as i CBF lol)... use sheet metal and weld it onto the bonnet, to make new lines for the vents to follow.... will make more sense with the body lines as well...

Alright my brother finally had some time to get some more work done :)

Shaved the boot lock and welded up the holes for the spoiler.

Moulded the evo 6 vent into the bonnet and modified the inner frame to suit.

Also shaved the chrome strip out of the body moulds
to tie in with the evo 3 bar that obviously doesnt have it.
Little things to help it look like it could have come that way from the factory.

Still a ways to go but hey after 5 months why not wait a lil longer haha i miss it so much :fuuuuu:

Where in Ningi dre, Carls good.

He filled the body lines with fibre glass, he says the plastic filler peels up and ya end up having to fill over it to make it smooth anyway.

I figures hes the professional i guess he done it before so ill leave all that in his capable hands...i really am lucky hes a bloody perfectionist, just perfection takes a hell of alot of time :w00t:
