Needs the badges on the back imo.
Would agree with John, paint match could be better.

Why a new boot have I missed something?
I would have gone with a CSL rep boot providing you can get one that is a good fit.

Recon the debadged boot would look better if the handle was somehow smoothed in or removed

Its decat at the min and has a rasp enhancing x-pipe.. He's putting the cat back on and removing the x-pipe in favour of straight pipes as its too loud and raspy at the minute...
Ohhh and yes the wings are a differant colour so are being redone

He does realise its RWD and there's no need to yank the steering wheels round pretending to torque steer?

It was wet and he has 340bhp going through nankangs without traction on? I've driven it in the dry and it still squirms

Should run better tyres tbh. Budget tyres on a powerful rwd car is just stupid.
Previous owner of my 325 ran it on budgets and it was a nightmare / dangerous in the wet / damp!

Yea he mentions this regularly but as its rarely driven in the wet and he's just spunked £1700 on the subframe contribution aswell as the fact its getting insp 2 next weekend they are low on priority as they have like 6mm tread.
