Thanks guys.. do you really think so gavrocool? I've got 3mm spacers anyway because the rims wouldn't clear the calipers on the rear.. i think 10mm would make it look like a rollerskate?

thanks man, I will leave it at 3mm for now, might change to 5mm in a couple of months do think the rear could be a little wider in stance.

Great mods! Not a fan of the polished lip on the wheels but other than that great choice.
Are you planning to lower it?
EDIT:
What wheels are those? They have only 15 spokes and a polished lip. I haven't seen these before.

Thanks, yeah I might lower it, looks higher in the pics than it suggests because of the incline that the car is sat on. Just ordered the black grill, I was going to have some HRE P40 19s but decided against them, may well change the wheels next year anyway!

Grill
I ordered the 55Tech grill last week and it showed up yesterday. Of course I had to drop everything and go install it.
Installation was pretty easy except for the section that attaches to the hood. There is a felt gasket that needs to be trimmed to get the best fit. I'm still not entirely happy with the fit but I plan on tweaking it this weekend.
I'll post more pics next week after I have it detailed...

nice one thanks for that pic, looks very nice on your car, very stealth!
I've arranged for my grill to be delivered to work so I can see me leaving early that day to get it fitted

hey dr nab, i'll shoot some pics over to you later when i get a chance to snap some better quality ones...it'll maybe help you decide on wheel choice, size, and if you should/need to lower it.
