Iain's 20XE Trackday Nova

[Iain]

I must work really slow, as I've only managed to get my splash guards sorted today.

Fruity template made:



On to old bonnet:



Cut out:



Stubby splash guard cleaned to bare metal:



Tacking on with new wing in place to get a good fit:



Crap welding, couldn't get a good flow, but it's on and not moving:



Stitched on at back:



Finished articles:





Also cleaned up drivers side arch. Given them both lots of rust killer and will etch prime them later:

Got a xe yet????

[Iain]

I'll have yours when you wrap it around a tree

[Adam]

Oh thanks

[Iain]

Don't worry I'll wrap mine around a tree too; I'm getting used to 1.1 Fiesta power.

[Adam]

lmao, wait till you floor a xe then......
compared to a 1.1 fiesta... hmmm

[Iain]

Front arches came up well. No doubt the rust will come back through again a month after I've had it on the road.

Rang Beevers auto panels in the week to order my rear quarters. Made it quite clear I was going to pick them up to avoid damage (as recommended by Paul off here), thought that was that and then they arrived in the post



One is good:



The other is damaged:



So will be ringing them on Monday and asking for a replacement... Collected, if they know what that means.
