This is where it all started in April 2010, he had a rather large bonnet scoop, silly airfilter and full of dents and knocks

Then we decided to change the bonnet as the scoop was on the rather big side and buy the reg number K17 TFU, and remove the wrap round spoiler

Then it was on to the body damage, NS rear quater and OS front lower wing

And added a knightrider light cut into the nosecone

Then it was out and about looking a bit sorry for himself

After getting fed up with the " patchy " look, it was time for the primer and fangs

When i had the time ( at last ) we decided to go for the satin black look with red pinstriping

Added a bonnet bulge and then thought it not suitable so removed it

We also looked at buying a KITT nosecone, but as knightmare is a custom interpretation of KITT i made my own version from a 92 nose and added 4 spotlights
to the crashbar

And last but not least i have finally painted him, black with purple glitter, so this should now be it ????????????????MAY 2011..............

Nice pics! When you had the red pinstripes, I was reminded of the Batmobile from the 1960's Batman series.
Cool!!

Thats a great story mate. I love the way you've done the nose. Not too keen on the fangs though.
