Very nice mate. Is that middle bonnet 'vent'/cutout straight though. To me it look very slightly skew wiff. Probably just me though.
Anyways, nice car

Why did u get rid of the Euro lights?? Did u know u could adjust them to angle down a bit more so not to be in everyone eyes?
Hoses, try SFS Performance in Luton. They done the demo hoses on my car, it includes the EGR pump hose accross the front, that you dont get with the Samco kit. And its cheaper. (bout £80-£90)
Oh, just seen u aint got that part
Mantzel engine cover? Then get it sprayed? Or build up your own to be straight like Donnas?
Also, purchase an elbow (45 degrees), measure the diametre size, make the induction pipe look much better.
Battery surround, bout £10-£20
Aliminum header tank (like the one i just bought (Bailey)), or speak to Donna about her one. Its expensive (bought £150) but looks cracking, no visable welding!
Also, speak to Samco about Vacum piping. The thin pipe coming off of the cam cover going towards the back, get the diamter, and by a few metres worth. Its only about £2-£5 per metre. Cheap effective mod. Just bought some for Donnas engine bay!!
On the whole, good car, and i love the install
