    All works spot on . Ignore long bolts and stuff they are just for mocking up . Got all new cap head bolts for every thing so will all loog same.

    Also just to help anyone else out in the future the drivers side engine mount bush normaly uses an m10 bolt throught it which is renound for the bolt head touching the chassis leg and vibtrating through the whole car . People usualy drill a hole in the leg or dent it to solve the problem . However if you use an m12 tap you can thread it all the way through and just use an m12 bolt (much more heavy duty) from the out side no need for the nut easyer to remove and no longer touches the leg . as you can see mine has a piece off 12mm thread bar all the way through at the min

    That front end is so much better. Got a clever way to mount the wings also?

    Thats the job for in the morning pal . Those hex female thread things on the sides are m10 so idea is to use some sort of 10-12mm stainless bar threaded at one end with locnut for adjustment then . Other end drill 2 holes for R clips one inside the wing and the other outside . Bar will pass through the wing and bumper . In theory

    Nice way to have done it. Love the engine mounts too.
