That is fookin gorgeous fella! :thumleft:

What make is that front splitter? Thinkin it might work with my Bomex Skirts.

Oh and the first set of wheels were great, not everyone's a fan of the silver lipped style or black. Was nice to see someone else with some nice shiny 5 spokes, very nice :thumleft:

Yep as said it's a border front bumper. As for the wheels I did like the 5 spokes but think the current wheels suit the car alot better the 5spokes looked great when the car was near standard but looked a bit tame with the kit on lol

Not updated for a while so thought i would add:

Cars looking pretty much same just tidying up areas got a few bits to go yet, just had mot which highlighted the fact that the cars wheel allignment is seriously out somewhere as have worn a bald strip on inner edge of front tyres so now got 215's on the front which look better on the 8" wheel and off to get it all aligned asap.. Other than that been to a few shows, was part of the fast and furious promo event in london and had a feature in fast car :) and now got some nice up to date photos to share. Thanks to phill steindhart for the following photos and Nick turner for sorting out the feature:

Well the story so far:

Thanks,

The strips were removed and metal strips welded in there place have seen people do it by using just filler but dint trust using filler as more likely to crack/sink etc
