October 5, 200817 yr Author comment_279262 Not bad ay? The design is called "Natural" Very hard to get that design so i guess I'm just lucky. Anyway.. Moe, lookin real good! I just realized something, You don't have any rear door handles??? When did that happen? I had them shaved AGES ago... but I think they were more noticable because I took pictures of the car in the SUN (yes, we do actually get that here in tassie :)) I was going to do the fronts, but got a case of the CBf's, so they will be colour coded, but the front door locks were gone! Looking excellent . You have inspired me greatly, the extra effort is worth it in the end . 10 out of 10 Thanks mate... much appreciated! Report

Hey champ! The rear doors will be only opened from the inside! Because I removed the seat belts from the rear (look to cluttered for a show car IMO), I cannot sit anyone in the back anymore! So I just open from the inside! The front locks will be run off of the standard battery and will be running a small 'back-up' battery under the dash which will be activated by a small switch under the car 'somewhere' in the case of a dead main battery! In Tassie, there are no laws against no handles (I reckon the same for other states, but best to check), as long as there is a manual way of being able to get inside! But because no one will be in the rear of my car, there wasnt any need! Hope that helps! Holy crap! I just read through this whole thread and I have to say..

October 9, 200817 yr Author comment_280262 Hey guys Got all my rear suspension arms back in this morning... Coilovers in... Put wheel back on... Wheel rubs on bottom of coilover spring :cool: Stupid big ghey ass wheels lol So going to get a slightly shorter spring set for the rear tomorrow (only needs to be about 20mm to 30mm shorter)... More waiting :y: Report
October 9, 200817 yr comment_280352 Ohh, well that sucks. I reckon you could get away with less than a 10mm clearance. I can can't even fit my finger though the gap where my tire is. Hope it all goes well :P Report
October 9, 200817 yr Author comment_280355 I wish I had clearance mate :P It actually hits the spring :P Only just tho! Report
