Ginge, those pics make the car look stunning 
Those wheels are SO cool compared to the ones you ran at the Ring. Looks mint, really really like it
However, as I think maybe someone else MAY have mentioned, deffo go for the smaller scoop.
White for the wheels though, black ones you can never see in pics and normally look poo....
And a tad of lowering at the front.
And maybe a slightly smaller front plate.
Mirrors I think look fine
Did you ditch the flappy fake rally slag red mud flaps? Expect they fell off, hard to tell in the pics, but they looked like they were flags in a hurricane on the way over to the Ring!
Really liking the pics of it now, very impressed

rear flaps are off the car,,, fucked a second rear bumper parking when i tried mounting a curb again, driving in london sucks
fronts are still on as the car seems a " little " higher at the front
the other wheels where what i got with it and i put slicks on the spare 17's and the other 17's never turned up in time,,,, the RL7's where a bargin on ebay,,,, 92 quid for 4 of em which was a decent price,,,, considering my max bid was 450 quid pmsl

i LOVE the scoobie, i was ment to sell it after the ring but its just a childish car for me,,,,,nippy, good top speed, understeers when pushed round corners tbh ( and it spins on the ring if you cant drive,,,,, like me ) but its a great car,,, 6 months and just a radiator ive done in it racing a bike,,,,, and anyone who know me will tell you i dont mind going fast

my cossie was ALOT faster in a straight line,,,,,, but it understeered alot and i never trusted it tbh with all the cossie scare mongering you get,,, only ever lost the back end 3 times though tbh and then it wasnt even bad,, just a twitch but al the whole " rwd will kill you" bollox
Literally JUST had this conversation. Yours sounded good compared to mine! Mine is verging on lethal in certain condtions, but then I got shit camber/tyres/suspension. All needs addressing asap i know.
