Took some photos last night of the inside of my Elan with my new CD player in. Think it all matches very well with all the red dials in the cockpit ... feels like a fighter jet lol!

Oil pressure and boost looks a bit low in your fighter jet LOL

PS Your exhaust looks like a small pea shooter in a big void - it would look much better with an oval PECO in my opinion

Well spotted, looks like the S2 has them more inboard :?

I know some bumpers have the mesh in 2 pieces but mine is the same as the one above :?

Guys, can you see the boot being a bit high up on the left side rear light? (the third and fourth last pictures) It is exactly the same as mine, I was wondering how to fix it, is this common?

Clemo,

So I should just love it the way it is then? Out of curiosity does SE's and N/A's don't have this quirk?

Well ... I was looking at the rear photo's thinking that the exhaust looked awfully small with respect to the orifice in the bumper then I looked at mine and other photo's and thought that the bumper was indeed different ?

The space for the exhaust looks much bigger in the red S2 than the NM SE

Have a look at the images below - is there a noticeable difference or am I just imagining it ???

That last photo looks spot on.

The bumper looks completely normal from that angle - must be my eyes or a trick of the camera. :oops:
