Mr Sport, are you familiar with the Skunk Works? Is that what you based the name on or is it just a random coincidence?

If it's the former, shouldn't the car be matt black?

It looks very nice by the way. Very elegant and understated approach.

Loving it mate, I wouldn't change a thing.

Other than the badge on the steering wheel

Apart from that, absolutely amazing!

No i wouldnt change the BBS badge, but then if i bought a set of vauxhall wheels and fitted them to my Honda i would. Just looks wrong imo. The car is a vauxhall no point in sticking porker badges on it, people that dont understand will just say, ha look at that kid trying to make out he has a porsche...

I like the bodystyling. But the wheels dont suit it
