Im so very happy with the result of the re-trim, new rear cards trimmed and not painted like factory, new trimmed kick panels, and new trimmed seats, refoamed and all, the only part i never touched were the door cards are there we perfect

There has been heaps of other stuff but i haven't had time to sit back and list it for you, ill update this thread as soon as i get the next bit done, my wheels!

Red low back interior looks great. As a bonus you can park the mk1 underneath the patrol when you need the space[:u]

As you can see i went to a lot of detail, even new bolts and all, nothing left undone, next on the cards, head gets sent away for second stage of work.

Hey matt, great to see that your still making progress.

Just wondering about your 13x7's, what type of rim are they (any pics) and what offset or back spacing are they?

Thanks
Nathan
