and quickly turned into this, with all the front panels removed.Attachment 2426
Then all the new panels were dry fitted and found the new wings are wider at the A pillar so had to slit the door skins and open them wider from the MR2 door.Attachment 2427
To replace the MR2 ones, I picked up some cheap, genuine 355 wing mirrors from ebay and adapted them to fit.Attachment 2428
This is where I'm up to now....all the new panels are on & gapped. Final filler coats are going on and sorting out other minor bodywork faults before a full respray. Then I can enjoy that lovely 2GR power & sound again.Attachment 2429
Much much better Pete, if i'm honest i wasn't a fan of the headlights in their original position, looks great now.
I could be cheeky and say what's the difference lol, but the mk3 front looks great never been a fan of the 355 reps apart from this one as it just looks right.
I totally forgot I was updating this - so here is the finished project. Matt black paint & graphics designed by me from an idea after seeing a F430 Challenge Scuderia in similar colours. Attachment 2726
Very nice. Reminds me of something.......
