I made a hole for the start button and used some wrinkle paint on the alloy plate and then once installed it almost looks like it was meant to be there.
 
I am pretty happy with it.
 
Cheers

Matt,
 
DId you turn down your axles or open up the centre hole in the discs to make them fit?

Hi mate,
 
I had the axles turned down.  I don't think you can open the centre hole to make them fit as they need to fit over the axle flange.
 
The axles need to be machines down to 134.80 mm.
 
Cheers,

Got some velocity stacks and I'm thinking of making a cold air induction set up.

Thanks Mate,
Guess I'll pull the axles again and remove the new studs...

Springs arrived late last night thanks to a great courier! 
 
Car is in today to get the Kill switch wired in so hopefully I'll get a chance to get the springs in on Satursday as Sunday I'm off fishing.
 
Cheers,

No luck, I went to pick up the car from the auto elec on sat but they didn't do a great job and nothing was working properly.  It stalled 3 times going out of their driveway.  The alternator light stays one, the brake fail light stays on and nothing on the dash works.
 
So it's still there and hopefully it'll get sorted out properly tomorrow and then I can get the springs in.   I actually quite like the hot rod lean!
 
Cheers,
 
Matt
 
On another note the fishing was crap today too.  Too windy.

Picked up the car and all is good and everything is doing what it should. 
 
It's too hot to do the springs today so may have to wait for the weekend.
 
Cheers,
 
Matt
 
Sorry for the crap pic
