Youre going to just have to get it all working and then just leave it until PVS and then trailor it Ye got my bonnet on, wheels are on with centre caps, rear bumpers on just waiting on the mesh for the front bumper and the white sikaflex for the sideskirts and then its all going together The centre cap badges are the gayest thing ive ever seen but they will do for now until its on the road and then i'll change them. Need to finish tidying my engine bay, change the EGR and blank off the SAI holes as mine is missing
