mounted splitter to get a better idea



used original hardware with some washers. worked fine just needs a few small tweaks to make perfect now.



Skirts also having a bit of adjustment for better fitment.

 

changed brake and clutch fluid for super blue, old stuff was like poo water. Shifts feel much less notchy now. Brakes weren't bad before but have done for sake of anyway.




Headlights looked a little cloudy so gave them a going over.
Before



After


Took lights out to get rid of any mould/greenery and gave them a polish



Proper wash underneath too

 

Mk1 template made and tweaks taken back and amended on cad drawing (mainly fixing points refined)




splitter Mk2 cut and fitted. Simply a case of undoing original bolts that hold bumper to undertray, slipping some washers over them (work without also but just to spread the load) Also put a couple in the middle section where there was no support previously, again using OEM holes so everything can be reverted to standard if needs be. This is what annoyed me with other companies products, having to remove the bumper and drill your own fixing points!














Tried and tested around the evo triangle yesterday. no issues whatsoever at any kind of speed

Will be testing this on a couple of other cars before offering to general public, Also interested in getting a prefacelift version made in the coming weeks

MK3 version will be gloss black one side and matt black on the other so will be able to be flipped for personal preference. Still working on a set of side skirts.

For anyone who is interested they're made from an aluminium composite panel

 

Looking good.

 

thanks buddy. Went the evo triangle to other weekend, grabbed a few pictures







DIY lip stood up to excessive speeds, just want to try it on a couple of other cars to ensure mounting points are all good before making a few more and offering them for sale

 

having my wheel retrimmed, existing one is looking a little worn and lets the interior down. Having it redone with perforated sides like the one below.

new wheel collected.

old one was shiny and had a few scratches where someone had been wearing a ring. stripped it down.


new ones nappa and chunkier. absolute beaut!

 

Took a trip to Jack Smiths at the weekend. Left Liverpool at 3.30 in the morning, pootled down and came across some mega roads (some may recognise from topgear!)

Top itself is good, few little bits i've tidied up, spot of glue i've picked off and threads that needed trimming but for £280 i really cannot complain. Ray's a nice chap, says it how it is! don't use him if you're easily offended! his workshop is down some shady alley way in swansea.

so roof before. Wasn't the worst of conditions but never liked the blue anyway!











all fitted and on my way home. Was advised to leave roof shut for 24hours to aid the glue to set



Managed to crack the proper camera out in the morning and take advantage of some mega roads!





fly collection



gave the top a quick wipe down once i was home and applied some of this



Also had chance to test fit my splitter onto a car with the OEM lip.



Unfortunately doesn't fit without fiddling around with it! Never mind. when i get chance i'll make one that does!

 

managed to have a nosey at what bolts i need to order for a proper Geo, 3 of 8 are unseized (thanks Ray at Daytona)



Bushes and bolts on order shortly!

 

The new splitter looks great man, also a great job with the new steering wheel too. What soft top did you end up going with, I have a similar tear and was curious on what brand you got for the replacement?
