Oooopppsss!

Just scrapped a little bit of the RHD side of the rear bumper. Now how the hell am I going to drive the car around with a sekon - han bucket seat + my brand new Bride Type FG rails?

I love the feel of driving around with my head only peeking out a bit. Ha! My pal's setup [ he's a Spoon freak btw! ], Spoon's Kevlar bucket seat + old skool Bride rails : only his head is seen, and it's parked right on the bottom of the door [ more specifically, where the door glass ends lar when you scroll the window down! ].

The main problem with driving around in this setup is : you hafta see forward, much forward than previously. This can be a bit risky especially when driving fast on public roads, not a prob when in the track.

Also a prob when reversing etc. Remedy : place a clip - on large curvature rear view mirror, replace side mirrors with Spoon items [ those are blue - tinted so won't glare ] and practice parking often, especially reverse park!

But to purchase a nice sekon - han bucket seat, at least RM 800.00, up to RM 1.5k for a nice CF one. Kevlars can reach RM 2k wooohhhh, used summore!

I'm going to try to replace the door locks by myself again tonight!
