Re: four door mk2 road rally project

Fair play your tunnel went much better than mine I couldn't mate mine up to the original tunnel because it had been butchered before so i will have to fab that piece up. And the welding on mine isn't too clever.

Re: four door mk2 road rally project

Yours looks fine mate, mine would have been easier if it had a flange all the way round like the one pictured on plr website!
