My new nose cone and rear guards have arrived from my insurance claim for damage to my car while moving it from NZ to OZ, I had to fettle the nose cone a small bit as they had made a slight change to it, nothing major though and the new one fits much better than the one on the car now. The rear guards just need bolting up to check that they fit OK and then I will remove the front guards as well and take them to all be painted. I'm thinking a new color but I'm really having a hard time finding a nice color that goes with a all ali car, blue really does suit Aluminum. http://i660.photobucket.com/albums/uu326/Hotdognz/bits%20and%20pieces/P1050513_zpsce5f787b.jpg Also I have been testing out a small Bimi top this week which was kindly loaned to me by a Birkin owner on OZ Clubbies, we went out on Sat with it on and it really helped cut the sun and heat off us while in the car and even kept the seats cool while we were having a coffee, its very simply made and I have had a price of $100 to make one with a couple of modifications I want to make. Some pictures of the top (hard to believe the grass in the background was crispy brown 4 weeks ago, we have had a lot of rain) http://i660.photobucket.com/albums/uu326/Hotdognz/bits%20and%20pieces/P1050514_zpsd9c74aa8.jpg http://i660.photobucket.com/albums/uu326/Hotdognz/bits%20and%20pieces/P1050507_zps0fd907ac.jpg

Skip I have resized the grill to 146x155 and the file is being sent of for a price tomorrow, as soon as I know I will PM you. Cheers Stephen

Hi Skip Which of these sizes is the height you require I have scaled the seven grill to 146 high and it puts it to 155 wide keeping it to scale which is the best thing to do as this is easy to do in autocad, if you need 146x140 the grill will look elongated and also I need to redo the whole thing in Cad which is time consuming. So if you give me the height which should be the important one I will get back to you with a finished size and well see if that works. Cheers Stephen

4Mario I dont want to appear rude but this is my 4 sale post and I dont think its good form to post in my for sale thread, can you please start your own if you wish to sell your items and not post in mine. Thanks Stephen

Cheers Skip ill get it drawn up and priced. Stephen

Skip I can scale it down any way you want, currently the size is 195mm wide x 185mm deep if you can let me know the metric dimensions you would like well see how we go (I know metric is a alien in the US but its what I use). Cheers Stephen

Cheers glad it turned up and your happy with it. If any other members are looking at this forum thread I have just ordered another 10 as I have had email orders for 2, I have 8 left if anyones interested and thought they may have missed out. Cheers Stephen

Great to hear that they have started turning up, cheers guys.

No worries Mike, I make a very small profit from each one of course and you guys buying them have helped me out with some funds towards my Lotus fund which is great. Also have any turned up yet they cant be that far away now ??. Cheers Stephen

All sold from this run, if any one wants one please email me and I will put you on the list as soon as 5 people want one I will place a order for 10 from the laser cutters. Cheers Stephen

Finally managed to get out on the water on my new surf board which I purchased back in August. A couple of snaps from todays trip to Coolangatta, surf was up from the tropical cyclone that hit Fiji and I was itching to get out on my new board now we have gotten pass Christmas and moving into the house. It was a solid 4-5 foot a bit big for me as learner but I caught plenty of waves by the shore, water was 25 deg. http://i660.photobucket.com/albums/uu326/Hotdognz/Australia/Surf%20Adventures/snapshot_001_zpsc30aae73.png Managed to get up after 20 years of a surfboard http://i660.photobucket.com/albums/uu326/Hotdognz/Australia/Surf%20Adventures/P1050371_zps04e46080.jpg http://i660.photobucket.com/albums/uu326/Hotdognz/Australia/Surf%20Adventures/P1050383_zpsdf969a35.jpg http://i660.photobucket.com/albums/uu326/Hotdognz/Australia/Surf%20Adventures/P1050465_zps8ba2a86b.jpg
