any chance youve got another one of them centre consoles going? been scouring everywhere for something that will suit! Hi Ollieballs, RTR now have the pattern and tooling for my steering column cover and my dash panel. I am not sure if they have made any from the tooling yet but worth giving them a call. |

Mabbs, since you'll be bored without a toy in your garage I could fill it with mine if you have withdrawl symtoms you could finish mine off hehe.
PS Ollie, if you get the centre console I can supply a nice dash to fit in the hole, Oh err missus ;o)

A rare view of Mabbs car at Top Gear live...  as this is what it looked like most of the time...  There must be more pictures of this engine bay with crowds around it than of any other car that was at the show. Many thanks to John for the loan of the car. RTR |

Yes I have some new seats that I am collecting tomorrow which are full pre-preg carbon fibre weighing in at 2.5Kg each. The seats that are fitted are RTR's which I am sure they will sell !! |

I keep meaning to ask what rocker cover it is under the paint. Is it a silver top ?
I want mine painted but obviously the standard plastic black top isn't suitable.

The Rocker cover is the standard black top plastic unit. The sprayer said it would be fine and has done many before. Can do more or less any candy/flip colour you want |

That's good then. Other forums have spoken of putting a silver top on as the plastic rocker covers can't be sprayed. Obviously you've proved that myth wrong |
