oh by the way zuki is no longer ten shades of silver!!!

ive sprayed her black as i needed to test the compressor in my new workshop, looks pretty good tho, drivers side bit funny but passenger side and roof perfect, not bad for first attempt at spraying using a compressor, will get some pics up later, suppose the main thing is now i have no rust on the rear or holes in the wings as i made sure i cagged them well and she is all one colour not multipul colours of silver!

no i meant under body protection as in skid/bash plates for your sump, bell housing, gearbox&tranny box and rear diff. sorry didnt mean for confusion. under sealing is still a good idea though, ill have to do it to my vit eventually

 If you wanna raise the short section of your snorkel, B&Q do a 40mm Flexible pipe or you can buy an adjustable elbow from plumb centre.

already thought of that! 50mm steel rollcage, looks a bit silly in my opinion but at least this time it saves my head! its not quite finished yet as i need a bar connectin both sides at the top of the windscreen and a piece at the bottom of the windscreen, BIG ANT has kindly given me something to use as a rag top ;) thank you matey, and heres how she looks at the moment!

close your eyes if you are under 16 as shes now topless!!!!
