Saw some sort of Seven kit: green/ali in the town & a blue Caterham on the way home. The roads around Rye, Romney & Dungeness power station will be a fantastic location for a run out in the Zero; lots of quiet, flat, relatively wide, good visibility roads & the odd remote pub dotted here & there.
Some good challenges too with unexpected right angle corners with 5' drops into ditches either side of the road.

I have my eye on the marshes on the north side of Kent too - these roads are begging for a time trial, you'd just need a local landowner into cars that could close the roads :)

Cycle wings
I did make a start on the front cycle wings, just adding the edge trim & offering them up on the car. Dug out the relevant part of the IVA manual on wheel arches & all set to fix them.
They don't line up that well when just sat on the stays; as pictured here the arch is sitting too far forward. I need to get the car in the drive and look at the profile from a distance before deciding on their final position and mounting them:
Rear lights
My 'full kit' didn't have fixing bolts for the rear lights so also got these in ready to install too.Early in the build it was challenging to find a simple hardware/nuts bolts supplier. I've ended up using Spalding Fasteners who generally turn round orders and deliver within a couple of days, or for thre 'must have today' more basic stuff Screwfix actually have a good selection & are 5 minutes down the road, provided you don't mind ordering things in 100s!
