im also VERY concerned if the bonnet will actually touch! and this woulldnt be a problem if the 6 branch manifold wasnt 1 cm away from the arb as i would lower the rear engine mounts but as arb is there this will make mani rattle so im not sure what to do there!
its the rear drivers side corner of the engine that needs dropping a cm
or 2!

another lil update :D

i really had to sort these VVV rear arches outyou can see the lip from the g60 arch and then a rolled metal lip from the 1/4 pannel, they were very dangerous as ive stretched the tyres onto my rims the side wall was directly above the 1/4 pannel lip and if i was to go over a bump it would pull the tyre of the rim no problem.

so yesterday i set about sorting them out firsty i cut the metal out which obviously took a while as my arches are stuck on and cant be removed

here is what the arches looked like inside with the 3 skins

P5030004.jpg


i then cut slits around whole arch then etched the metal so no rust would return, then hamered the metal into g60 arch and then smothed it all of with windscreen sealer its given me about 3/4 inches extra dropping ability so im chuffed!
