Get rid of the bar option on your grille. Sometimes ‘less is more’ as it is in this case.

I think no bars it is. Thanks for the feedback.

I seem to of been following this for so long I can't remember if it's been mentioned, but how are you dealing with getting this 'engineered' ? Has it been an ongoing process ?
All the best

Spoke to an engineer even before I started and kept him up to date with pictures during the chassis build. He is not too worried about the body as been very happy with my standard of work and says if I keep that up, there should be no problems. Actually makes it easier too that it wont be painted to start with, as no hiding of crimes!

Sweet, that doesn't sound half as bad as I imagined it would be.
And understandably so considering the quality of your work.

Yes, and while he’s at it, increase the roof height by 5mm and widen the whole vehicle by 25mm !

I prefer no bar but have you tried not putting it in the middle? Maybe in line with the indicators?

Once painted the slots wont stand out as much as now. Also in the flesh it looks much better than in the photos as you can see the black mesh behind the slots.
