Looking good Addie!! You just got to bring her over to Ireland now for a weekend of madness :D

[Adie]

Dave did tell me :duh:

I think its where all the cables are for the emanage but have been expertly hidden....I think ( I'm sure Dave will come along and jog my memory )

[MrADeveci]

Looks nice mate .... well done ............ I notice that you have the same air scooop (in bumper) as Dave ...... as well as the number plate modification ......... :D

Not forgetting to mention ..... that Dave now has his own L3X number plate

Cool.... Dont think i'll have time to get the other bits fitted for the STS meet, maybe a few.. Also with the coilovers fitted i'm not sure if it'll be too low for the cameras now. :duh:

Would that be the number plate mod where you have it laying on the floor of the passenger footwell :P

It's usually in the windscreen ...... passenger side .......

"it just fell off officer"

"oh right ....... that's strange, because there is no evidence of it EVER being on the front of your car !!!!"

Looking very good mate :winky: i hope Dave will clean it for you

[aido]

Here we go fella, all the pics downsized to 800x600 - sorry it took awhile!

So what is the deal with the number plate area being filled in - is that because the intercooler is so big and the back of the bumper has to be cut out?

[Dave-Ellen]

bumper mod is to ensure the maximum amount of air gets into the intercooler.

OEM number plate hangs down a fair way so this is more efficient.

Difficult light in which to take photos but it does look the part.

Dyno day is Tuesday :D

[aido]

It certainly looks the part Dave, that front bumper work is impressive!!

Everything is just so tidy, great job by your guy :D

Are there any plans to relocate the plate at any stage? Just wondering what the legality of having no front number plate is?

Are you thinking eventually of doing something like on Mat's white car in terms of the number plate location on the Hippo Sleek bumper?

Looking forward to seeing what she's pushing out powerwise, I was amazed how quiet your car is when we were in Edinburgh mate yet it was pulling away easily!!

[Adie]

I've ordered a motorbike front plate and a 3/4 size plate from fancy plates. I'll see what looks best. I'm hoping for something like what Mat has done on the monster. Only problem being is getting a fixing for the plate.

I still might get the top of the bumper cut away in the future to expose the full intercooler similar to Daza's. Apart from Daza's got a TTE front bumper.

Just going to nick all the best ideas from everyones car for mine

[aido]

That's the way we've all done it mate :D

Lookin well Addie.

It seems to be a race against time for us as my car is supposed to be ready before the end of the week :D

That is a smart build you've got there!!!

I hope to see yous guys over here soon and then we can have a proper look at the motors.

We delivered my car to Jonny (Autronic installer/mapper) today and the sound from tha car was foookin amazing. just think SKYLINE!!!! :D

Hope you get the motor on the road asap.
