Wheel spacers arrived today.
To bad I can't play with them till Saturday now!

 

[The Patrolman]

The Spacers worked a Treat on the fronts now they clear the suspension arms...

Oh and make it look even more awesome:thumb2

 

[The Patrolman]

And from the front with 1 new front wing:thumb2

 

[The Patrolman]

not a bad job, but still need some finishing off and painting

 

[The Patrolman]

Had a little try of the prototype bumper with the new wheels / spacers and wings looks like it should go together as planned:thumb2

 

[The Patrolman]

Ok And one from the side as I cut a bit more of the arches too:nenau

 

[elty001]

:thumb2liking the look you are aiming for:thumb2
No narrow lanes when it's done:lol

 

[The Patrolman]

They won't be narrow after i've been down them:augie

 

[The Patrolman]

Both fronts on now:thumb2

 

[The Patrolman]

I'm thinking of removing the roof rack for a while just to get he extra wide look:nenau

Just the axle rebuild then we should be some where near done:thumb2


Till the body lift:naughty

 

[elty001]

You will be suffering from vertigo with the body lift :thumb2:thumb2:lol

 

[The Patrolman]

just done a side4 by side ( well top to bottom ) photo shop

can't believe these are the same tyres:nenau

I do prefere the genuine Nissan rims but Hey Ho!!

 

[spinna]

This is one awesome project you have mate. Looks brilliant and love how you modded the front wings:thumb2

 

[The Patrolman]

Thanks Bud!

just got a bit of patching around the lower sill areas to make it water tight then a few more spots of welding on the rears as they are not as good as the fronts, a skim of filler around the joints an possibly a bit of paint. Not too sure on the colour yet.

i need to replace the plastic arch protectors with something as the originals do not fit any more. The new arches are St/St so I don't need to worry about gravel rash feeding the tin worm too soon.

Quite pleased so far:thumbs

Nice work again here You can't beat a big wheeled Trol :sly
I can't wait to get back on mine but the Black Pearl must be finished first .
Keep up the good work :thumb2

 

[Sweety]

The new arches look great:thumb2 I've always liked the 17's you have on the Trol now as they are a nice classic 5 spoke. As for the arch protectors could you not use some of the edging stuff that door seals are made from (forgot the correct name of it:doh)

 

[The Patrolman]

Sorry, i have some trim stuff lined up for the outer arches. but what I need is to stop all the carp clogging up inside the rear of the front arches if I cut everything back level it will be easier:thumb2

 

[elty001]

How about some heavy duty rubber sheet :nenau
Not too expensive and easily cut to shape.
Didn't realise how much of the front wing you had cut away until I saw your pics :thumb2
Looking awesome by the way.

 

[The Patrolman]

A bit of a rub down and some paint:thumb2
