z3 California replica

[Lee]

hadnt noticed the seats, that was going to be my next question for sir percival, you couldn't really have roll hoops in a car like this, so it kinda dictates you have to use the original z seats with the roll over protection built in. then how do you go about a steering wheel, you need to keep the airbag so again your stuck with the z wheel, unless it can be modded in some way and converted to wood.

The zed seats don't give any protection. It's only the hoops that give that. Some zed models had them some didn't. The steering wheel you can just change and unplug the airbag. I used to run a Momo doing the same thing.

I like the way this kit changes the doors as it hides the car it was.

 

[The-California-Man]

the body was very straight forward to fit,once the doors are dry fitted the rest is just a matter of getting the door gaps write and fixing it in place,it is a two man job with the big bits.caliman
