Jim...

The Tech Art cars have a larger air intake scoop in the quarter and it`s also a slightly different shape,the new panel is tigged into place and leaded in...........the front wings,bumpers and various other panels are also changed.....

Oh and thats before the £12K Titanium exhaust system,engine upgrades etc etc.....

Oh nearly forgot,very blingy new wheels at about £3K a piece...

We`re hoping to have her in paint by the end of next week,then she goes back to Tech Art for some mechanical mods.......then back to us for some final finishing touches....

Will try and get some pics as it progresses.....

Mind you,we have another 3 to do too...
