Default What ya think?

So had a bit of spare time at work today and made these.

btw i work (and pretty much run!) a laser cutting company. I draw 2d shapes/profiles in autoCAD and cut them on laser machine out of anything from 1mm thick to 25mm thick stell (aluminium,mild and mostly stainless).

What ya think?









The STI one won't be in mine cos i only have a sport (for now) but I think they look ok.

Also did this



why not!

By the way if anyone would be interested in ANYTHING like this let me know. Ive aslo made loads of other bits for cars, sump guards, brackets, interior pieces, doorcards, treadplate etc. So if anyone needs owt let me know i'll see what I can do. Max size of plate is 4m x 2m!

Comments welcome as always

be VERY careful mate.

Tingtong started showing people what he could do when he flocked his own dash. Then got bombarded with requests from people to do theirs, so Scoobynet slapped him with requiring a traders membership, for something which was basically a hobby to him.

Needless to say, he doesnt post on here anymore which is a damn shame.

I never said to sell, bits ive done for other people before was for a favour or in return for parts etc. Not interested in making a profit or selling, its more hassle than its worth.

Just letting guys know what I can do. Im sure you lot help each other out with items/knowledge/lending a helping a hand?
