Spaceframed SR20DET RWD Nova

Today's job was to work on the scuttle cover so got the MC, heater, wiper linkage & washer bolt into place...

And then started trimming. I already had the main outline from the template of Shaun's but I had to trim in the bonnet hinge clearance and the tricky bit the holes for washer bottle and brake reservoir. Didn't get time to start on the washer bottle but have done the MC cap. Not 100% happy as yet tho. Its well positioned but is putting pressure on the reservoir and might cause leaks. I need to have a better look at it before I decide whether to leave as is or cut out the shape of the reservoir.

What do people think - do the cover white or satin black?

Dude it looks very nice!
Scuttle cover looks good. I need to re make mine.. Do yours black.

You might need to cut out the slight shaped part that's lower on the brake reservoir, as i noticed this is what twag will have to do on the one i made.

Also i think do it white mate.

White!

Looks good dude. Geeeet it finished!

Looking good !, Can't wait to see this done but its interesting seeing it coming together ;)

Best of luck !

white dude!! i love this car me its going to look fapping mint when finished!!

Nice one Simps, can't grumble at that paint job, looks fresh. Prefer the white stoneguard to my hammerited arches!

As for the scuttle cover, satin black all the way!!

Good work man

Cheers for the comments.

I'm leaning towards satin black purely because I want it powdercoated and it may be hard to get an exact match on the white. Got the same prob with the rocker & belt covers but with them not actually joing any panels I can get away with more.

On the corsa pedal reservoir you have the cap, well if it sticks up above the line of the bulk fire wall then you might need to cut out a bigger hole that's the shape of the top of the reservoir bottle, just slightly down from the cap mate, it's hard to explain! lol
