Final Body Work |
| Mustang Depot's FSI kit is the crappiest kit on the market..... | |||
Here is the current update on the body work. Mason Road Paint and Body agreed to take on the installation of the body kit, and final paint. They have done some other Eleanor's, and knew exactly what I needed. That was, until they saw the kit from Mustang Depot. Previously, they worked with the Maier kit, which they were happy with. I won't go into all the details, but the kit took them a lot of extra time to fit and make work (many pieces had to be "re-built" to fit the car. Below are some pictures that tell the story..... I will be updating more in the coming weeks. |

| Let's start at the back of the car. You can see how great this "high quality" kit fits. You can see most of the parts hardly fit the contour of the car, or are completely off.. |

| Thanks to Nick at the shop, the team worked diligently, and really used all their skills (and patience) to sort the issues. Here are some pictures of the almost final product..... |

| The front fit was a disaster - including fitment as well as the mounting studs pulling out of the fiberglass.. Here is the the outcome after a lot of hard work. |  |

| The lower scoops did not fit the contour of the car at all. They had to be cut to make them work. Also the sides of the car had to be cutout so the pieces could be recessed into the car and align with the door. |

| Here are the finished inside hood and trunk. You can also see us "color matching" to Donny's Cobra. |

| Kick ass side exhaust.... |

| So far, they have done a pretty good job of not trashing out my engine compartment! |
