Silver diff cover, replace two rusty screws, shrink wrap knuckle spacers, and steering is done.

Never finished the grill because I've been looking for the perfect mesh. Any suggestions?

for the mesh you could use the metal file holders that can be gotten from office supply store. they have different "grate" patterns . im going get one this weekend for the panel vents on my 1.9 Koh wraith

Fawk it. It works ok on the back of the panel. Doubled it up to get a finer mesh and it looks good on the bench. Should know for sure once i get it in the sun.

Man that's coming out good!! Dash is looking sick!!
About the mesh on the hood..... What if you redid the hood panel using 2 thinner layers of styrene. The top layer being just the outline that way you could "inlay the mesh and it would be even height with the finished hood.. Just a thought

Running out of patience and materials so the hood will get 1 attempt with lexan and calling it good.

Interior is almost done.
Moved the dash and used velcro on the steering wheel and seats. Gonna shape and paint the seats a couple more times and if it sucks it stays.
