hi steve. it looks good mate. very good !! wheels are my only issue unless you have mentioned your plans..

i have always wanted to change front appearance of my 460 into 463 but never ended up doing it. and after the launch of the pur edition and the workman models i dont think i will anymore, though i do get tempted....

its a personal thing, if you like do it...

good luck.

Steve - like many others i have been watching this transformation with great interest - my question is about your front end - in order to fit the 463 headlight surrounds did you have to fit 463 front wings?

regards,

James

Morning james .....No  the wings are the standard 460 items..i just manufactured brackets to fit the headlight surrounds and i used stainless "bighead" bonded fasteners for the lowerpanel side fixings.

Just been scrolling through your pictures..........fantastic job. I didn't realise you could fit later headlight surrounds/grille. Looks far better

thank you....opinions seem to be divided..many seem to prefer to keep old g's original....i just like the 463 look with the simplicity of 460 mechanical's....its been a fun 12 month project though.
