look what i got done... :D


Must give whopping great chunks of appreciation to Steve and the lads at Brickworx for damn fine work. Especially for working in rediculous heat and torrential downpours not to mention all the extra bits that seemed to somehow fall onto my car ;)

now i'm in the same boat as william, needing a set of those Mk1 ;) cooper flares.. :)

..and some sand dunes to test my new 4x4 ride height :)

You could ditch the spark plug leads and simply use the alfoil. Might save some weight and it's a great conductor.

You might have to wrap some of the alfoil with electrical tape near the dizzy to stop the spark from jumping over.

I would BLING the Inno flares by using S/S self tappers from yer local boat shop. :D
If you don't, the rust lines on the flares in a month or two from the POS steel screws looks decidely Un-Bling... :cry:
