Default Rally Day @ Castle Combe Circuit

Once the car was back on the road I attended Rally Day at Castle Combe where I unveiled the turbo conversion and the rest of my mods ...

The wheels have had fresh paint, Diamond White on the fronts with a Panther Black inner lip:

Decided to get something really different done, so I had lots of bits chemically dipped to create a custom look. Boot handle & rear bumper protector with new DMB gel overlay:

I'd also had all my interior bits done in this design too, but due to a problem with the last batch of materials they had to be done again from scratch.

Then came a few more changes ...

Saw these newly refurbed Speedline Mistrals on eBay, was impressed with the super shiny finish and just had to have them:

Unfortunately, the paint on the bumpers is shit and I feel it really lets the car down. It’s going in to my local bodyshop soon to be sorted.
