trying do something a bit different now standard ish with a few pannel changes maybe front light change but cant find any wheels atm
Erm, how in gods name is that going to pass an MOT when the tail lights are pretty much completely obscured? lol

i got a spare boot lid;)
LOL, so spare bootlid for MOT, then swap back and be invisible in the dark.
Genius!
The boot covers the whole of the rear light bulbs, you can only see the curved edge? Lol
Nice work on the bodypanel, come out quite well.

Actually that completely obscures the tail and brake lights!
Think you'll need to trim them down a fair bit, or take the rear lights out completely, weld a plate in to replace the lenses, and fit some good looking trailer lights into the top half of the bumper.
good job on the body work mate, i have a 5 door nova with a big rust hole in the near side wing, im hopin to get it sorted next week though:)

just get stuck into it bud and hope for the best,
best way i found is cut the new pannel as near to what you need then put the new panel against the old and mark using the new pannel as a template

the boot and lights are staying in the same place i'll get round it may even use some of mikes idea but just put extra main lights/brake somewhere
cheers mate we'll see how it turns out next week not we :) if i can get the whole 15 posts thing up il try and get some pictures up of the beast:)
