As a track car, why the hell not have orange bumpers and arches! I think it looks alright. Just drop a bigger lump in it now and sort the suspension.

Man you paid alot! And you don't need to strengthen the rear and all that. Was never done on my Corsa b LET and didnt have any problems. I don't know where that theory came from tbh.

That rear strut brace is near useless BTW as it bolts on to rubber mounts basically, so it moves with the mounts and doesn't brace the turrets.
You want the one that bolts onto the side of the turrets

I paid 400 for my Gaz coilovers on the front and springs+struts on the back of my Astra so not bad I'd say, still not the best coilovers going.
