Default Puzzle complete.
Got the final piece of my consol today. Thanks to Gaela (gtsgt) who was extremely helpfull in this aquisition. Although we had to side step and go for painting due to a hiccup. But the consol is now complete, being GT-P Silver from ICC to rear vents. The last and hardest component was the Auto Surround fascia. Trying to order the Auto FPV version ended up being a dead end, as FPV needed a build number. The FPV build number is mounted on this section. So painting mine was the only real option.

Really pleased that you are so happy with it, Kev. I use the best Panel Shop in SA (Franklin Crash in Franklin St in the city) and they are so good to deal with. I know that matching the colour and the satin finish was a real challenge for them.

Hope we didn't scratch it squeezing it into the box........

Cheers
GT

The precedent of stripping weight and using full slicks was set years ago now.

So if you want to beat em, ya gotta join em, and being manual makes the time even more credible.
