Haha cheers guys. Still need to line the front panels up 100% and a few other parts. Hence why I was doing a u-turn from blacks on Blenheim road. Never have too many bolts. The car looks darker in person so will try get some better pictures. The mx5 seats weren't too bad to bolt in. Took a bit of pissing round to get them in. Would be easy if you had the factory mx5 rails though. I didn't .

You need to get that door and front guard lined up, spacing and swage(sp?) lines aligned. Then align the bonnet and get the front chrome trim aligned with your light chrome trim.

Once that is done it would be PERFECT. Looking so bloody good. Well done!

What will you be doing with your existing carb setup?

No ca.
Some more bits arrived today. Turbo carb kits and a nismo manifold gasket with bigger port holes and a malpassi fuel regulator.
Have blow off valve and oil feed kit aswell. Plenum is going to be tricky but see what happens.
