Sonic Build Diary 03: What's Next

· Charlie Zartt

Sonic isn't finished. Here's what's still on the list, and why each job matters.

The Arches

Sonic needs its arches. They come in black plastic, so they need painting to match the car's white pearlescent paint, and that's quite expensive.

When they're painted and fitted, I'll mount them slightly lower on the car so it looks slammed. I don't want to actually lower the car, though. That would make it much less practical over speed bumps.

The Interior

The black leather seats have some burns from the previous owner, so the interior needs white seat covers.

I've already got a head-up display projector for the dashboard. The challenge is fitting it so it looks factory. I think I'll need to 3D print a housing for it to sit in and hide the cable.

Tint and Aero Discs

I tinted the rear passenger windows myself. It's imperfect and needs doing professionally, when the budget allows.

The front aero discs, with the white arrow running around them and the number, are yet to be bought. Like most of this list, they're quite expensive.

One Change at a Time

That's about it for now. Each job will get its own update as it's done, so you can follow Sonic as it changes.
