Pelles Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 My bodyshop is arguing over me what will look better, hes saying dont do it my way that it may bring the looks of the car down, but im not too sure... The scuttle panel, ok, my idea was to smooth the entire panel completely, then cut 1 rectangular shape along it on the left side, and one identical on the right side, then fire some some of the evotech front bumper flat drilled mesh under neath. The bodyshops idea, just smooth the entire scuttle and not bother with the rectangular shapes. If the scuttle is smoothed this wouldn't cause problems would it? What would you choose?

McRic Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 the panel directly in front of your windscreen that the wiper arms poke through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 Hum, I dunno mate............ Might just look better with some simple colour coding, but then the wiper arm is going to really stand out then if its black as well............. As for the shapes, why not try 3 circles about the size of 2 pence pieces in a row on either side, more subtle that way, and it wont look like a honking huge secttion has been cut out!

Pelles Posted July 30, 2003 Author Share Posted July 30, 2003 something to keep into consideration, any more ideas/opinions on this are welcome.....as im still unsure on it.... The window wiper, well nothing really can't be done on them excelt a nice set of aluminium ones so not really bothered about that. the little circles sounds like a good idea....

Colin Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 I reckon colour coded and smoothed over with three holes in it would look immense IMO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelles Posted July 30, 2003 Author Share Posted July 30, 2003 I reckon colour coded and smoothed over with three holes in it would look immense IMO! the mesh may look silly under it, as only a few holes would show if you know what i mean, i think id need some sort of special thin mesh with tiny type holes in them....

EssexMikeSi Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 why do they have the grills on there? is it to let summit breathe? coz i was thinkin of havin mine smoothed, but i dont wana cause other problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelles Posted August 2, 2003 Author Share Posted August 2, 2003 bodyshop got back to me and said why not have 3 little circular holes to be diffrent at one side, rather than having 3 at each side.... whats the general idea on that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
