UPDATE TIME!!!

have just picked up my roof lining from the upholsterer who redid the lining in black, details and pics to follow. more importantly at this point:

finished the quad exhaust conversion after some tweaking in sound... had the rear muffler deleted but that made the car waaaaay ricer... so added 2 high flow resonators and the result is much better. A slight drone Id like to get rid of next week, but thats just a small issue. The car screams like a happy chappy and looks the part with the 4 pipes... Had my mate accellerating for a quick video about 2 hours ago, so enjoy and comment!!

you really want a decent sound source for the video as sound is mostly what ull get from it, on my phone it doesnt sound half as awesome as on a decent speaker system.

CF front splitter and cf trunk spoiler on order! just normal sized trunk spoiler, no BS unfortunately, but I got a sweet deal, so I might still upgrade later on...

I blacked out my lower bumper part as preparation for when the splitter is fitted... can't wait...

Have installed CF front splitter on my 63 bumper... not perfect finish, but still VERY nice! took the bumper off to install after a bit of mocking around. Will post pics soon... done rear deck lid in CF as well at the same time... pics follow


new goodies arrived today:

(you can see in the pic that the finish is a bit dull, so I will get them sanded and recleared before install...)
