If you're taking the bumper off when you do the intercooler, paint the towing eye and bracket satin black too........makes the front look loads better!!!!

The wheels look great.

I like the amber indicators. I am trying to buy a set at the moment so I can remove the clears on my car.

Considering a fibre glass ones are Ł130+ if think it well worth it

Mine has the normal Late sapph door cards in, but id like to get them trimed in the same cloth as the seats.

Cheers again for the comments
