i just put some of them indicators in mine they fit bot not very well im thinking about sealing them with somthing, i think its because the mighty boy guard curves more then the shitbox commy guards

The SS indicators look OK there, (If there's enough room behind) but won't cutting that much metal out of the guard just there weaken it heaps? :-o

Sorry Cam - I was belatedly replying to Angas' question about his SS indicator location on the black guard on page 1... :oops:

Your's look fine.

I'm sorely tempted to get a set of VT indicators for my car, seeing all the others running about with them fitted, yours now, too.

They do look schmick.

But what's with that big wing mirror parked there on the guard? :-o

Shades of 1960's...! :D

Each to their own! :wink:

Cheers

good way to wreck a mighty boy is to make it look anything like a commodore lol would be different but

Probably... maybe it could be reinforced somehow

Thats what im worried about. I still think those indicators actually look cool, im just not sure about them on the mightyboy

Hey everyone,

I've recently started to get back to work on my mightyboy. So heres an update of where I'm up to.

I bought a Hatch and stripped it, mainly for the F8B.

Apart from that, I've just been working on removing surface rust and straightening panels. I also bought a new front bumper :)
I plan on having the F8B checked out and have that sorted out before it goes back in.

Its exciting to finally be making some progess again now that I have a bit more time to spend on it!
