Cheers Kieran, I am really happy with the way it's going, and proud that it's my own work, as i'm sure you know with yours, instead of throwing money at it for someone else to do it like

Cheers Jambo, appreciate the honesty, i figured opinions would probably be mixed about it, but as long as people appreciate the work and effort gone into making the car 'mine' as such then i'm happy . Just out of curiosity, is it the general direction the car's going in that isn't your style? I know you've been a big fan of for a while

Well, kind of a non/update, I wanted to get out and get the splitter on today for the meet tomorrow but it's been raining on and off all day and even proper lagging it down at times so havent had a decent chance to get out and get it tigersealed on bloody weather! Might have a chance to quickly get it stuck on and leave it over night if it stays fairly decent though. Fingers crossed.

that's fair enough dude. I know 'badboy' extended bonnets are a bit marmite, or at least a lot of people don't like them. But i think it should just work a treat with my styling, especially with the custom slat grill. I have to admit it does look odd with the bonnet black, hoping once i've worked my magic on it and got it all painted up it'll be one of those things where it just works y'know.

Haha i wouldn't say complete yet Jambo i keep thinking of the to do list it depresses me, still a hell of a lot to do but thanks, something unique is exactly what i want

spose it has been a while since the splitters been anywhere near the car. Nope, unfortunately not =/. Next time it's dry it'll be straight on though!

Cheers Ad glad you likey figured you'd be happy about getting the front struts on and sorted

Lil pic whoring update seeing as i got the splitter fitted yesterday. Still needs a clean and tidy up to neaten it all up but that's easy enough. Actually got Dan's decent camera out instead of just using my phone so hopefully pics will be a bit better quality. So here's some pics for your browsing pleasure!













My favorite pic





One to show clearance underneath, as you can see, it's actually on the floor! haha

And a lil video for shits and giggles
