Talking Carbon Engine cover on.

Took a while to fit as the forge oil cap is larger than the standard one so out came the dremmel.

Little bit of alignment on the brackets then it was on.

Not a very good pic as it was getting dark.



will try to get a better pic over the weekend after i have cleaned the engine bay.

Just taken a couple of pics but cannot get a pic to look right.

But here they are anyway.





Still needs a bit more taking off here and there to get a better fit. Job for sunday me thinks. Car needs waxing first.

Cool

Weight saving should be noticable the amount i have cut of it to get it to fit.

Not going donny this year mate.

Going to try to start my install and finish the engine cover off.

Alec with the red coupe has had it smashed up so got to help him get it ready for the FCS.

Got to try and fix my boot as somebody thought they would exchange my vrs badges for a load of scratch's along my boot
