Eek! Added non-lightness!

Seriously, looks nice.

The pedal box area stiffening plate is nicely done. I am OK with adding "unlightness" in this area where the safety factor in design is less than 1.0.

Right. And we see you've (presumably) cut a BIG opening in the top of the pedal box to facilitate re and re of master cylinders, etc. (judging by the full size cover plate).

I have certainly contemplated this, too.

What is the colour? Lotus, or . . . ?

Hi Randy I've not cut out any material out of the pedal box , just made a stainless cover ,the car colour is astonmartin almond green

[Sea Ranch]

Okay; no metal removed, just a cover. Do tell? I assumed it was a cover over an access hole.

The colour looks beautiful. Those Aston colours were very well developed, chosen, etc. (although I will say I was quite shocked to see a Vanquish or Vantage in Bahama Yellow - my car's colour and one I have always disliked )

Anyway, keep the updates coming. Very nice. Keeps me motivated, too

I also had a steel mounting plate made, but not as large as Shaun's. It was a big improvement to the stability of the pedal box. I also have a removable plate in the top. This was fitted previous to my ownership and is extremely useful for removing master cylinders.
