Rear of the year? We’ve got to be in with a shout...


THIS MONTH


CONTACTS


With the attention this car is now
getting on a global scale, it’s time to make
it look as good as it goes...
That’s right, it was finally time to rip
off the old metal makeshift arches and
fit something a bit more in keeping with
the car’s build. These came in the form of
some brand spanking new wide fenders
from the guys over at EP Racing.
First, we removed the old arches;
this didn’t take long at all. Then it was
time to break out the angle grinder and
get cutting. We need as much room as
possible under the arches to improve
wheel clearance so that we can take
advantage of lowes that come courtesy of

PB coilovers. We also tubbed and coated
the innards with Raptor Tough Protective
Coating; this stuff is proper hard-wearing
and should stand up to the insane amount
of abuse this thing will be getting.
With all this done, we got to work
riveting on the new fenders, and this
didn’t take long as they were a perfect fit.
The last stage for now was to get the car
painted – we opted for a flat grey on the
rear, while the front end will be wrapped.
We even had time to head back to
Caged Laser and get them to fabricate a
rear crash bar that incorporated a jacking
point. It’s proper Mad Max style and looks
insane. That’s another job ticked!
