done a good job with all the little touches. keep up the good work

Finally finished the vent scoops. Once they went on had to wash the car

Anyway here's a pic with them on:



And here's what it looked like 6 months ago:

It's all subtle stuff, but the car looks miles better.

A couple of what may be silly questions but will ask anyway....

1) The Trophy Lights.... Do they have the matt black internal surround or did you do that yourself?
2) What wheels are they? I believe they are off a later version is that right?

Cheers.......

trophy'ing lights how to here
The wheels are 16" 11 spokes as first fitted to the Trophy version and all cars with AP front brakes.

Thanks David

As for the AP front calipers - they are nearly rady to go on.

Will post a couple of interior shots in a couple of weeks, when the next round of add ons are installed

Your car looks SUPERB all those touches make so much difference, keep up the good work

Finally took some pics today of the latest round of mods, so here they are:

For reference, the original centre console when I bought the car:


New carbon fibre console/vents and Mike Satur heater knobs. Also swapped clock and oil temp gauge. Note red LED festoons in footwell (LEDS also in map lights, clock and oil gauge):


Mike Satur pedals and chrome footrest:


Rear cockpit view showing Mike Satur roll hoops, wind deflector and lighter. Also MGB badge on passenger airbag blank and 'badged' driver's airbag:


Font view of hoops (whoops - forget to put alloy seatbelt escutchions back on ):


The leather part of the hoops were a bit 'tired' and I want to recolour all the interior trim black, so I dyed the hoop leather and the T-Bar using 'Brillo' leather/plastic/vinyl dye This stuff works great on the leather of the hoops, the vinyl T-Bar and the speaker rings, so I will be using it for all the rest of the interior as well.

Red/black steering wheel is on the way and I will recover the seats and doorcards as soon as I fix the slight leak on the driver's window

That just leaves the brakes - waiting to get the new rears when available (already have AP fronts ready to install and a stainless steel exhaust and I'm ready for the summer

LOOKING REALLY GOOD Keep up the good work.

impressed with all the work so far, i especially like the carbon fibre console!
