Im happy with what ive got.

90 spec interior with 88 spec exterior, add some 17's and lower it a bit and you have a stunning S2.

Only if its in red though

T28 have you modded the front bumper? the 88 looks as tho it will obstruct quite a bit of airflow? I have a spare 88 spec front bumper and have been thinking of some strategic hacking, then fitting it.

I have modified the bumper

Bellow the number plate ive cut a section out underneath where the numberplate is, i then got a smaller plate made up, alot of the foam on the rear of the bumper is cut away aswell.

You can see here



This is what it should loo like

Nicely done.

I think the modding looks better than fully cut out, unless the car looks like a full on race car.

Apart from the one ive got- red 90 spec throughout

I reckon a white 90 spec exterior with 88 spec interior, dark headlining and no sunroof would do it for me. And a flocked dash.
