beautiful lad well done i know what a mammoth task it is to do on the body if youve done it all yourself, youve even got the rear quarter meeting the lower spoiler properly
got the power to back up the looks, good choice of color too, a cosworth only color always looks more convincing than the usual reds and blacks
mines mallard green
are the back arches steel as well?

Looks great mate, far far better than the usual reps you see around I must admit!

I'd be tempted to chuck some 18's on it as the genuine wheels don't quite sit right in those arches

Also, have you got rear disc's....?

The one in Solihull is still about, possibly only a 1600i at best. No match either for the fit and finish on this rep. Spot on!
