That would kind of make him posting this thread pointless though Pete would it not

Martin all looks good but i can't stand those front bumpers To me they look like cheap nasty 'combat' style bits but its your decision!

this is what competition is about, Martin needs to be beaten to have reason to go faster or it becomes boring.

How heavy will the finished car be?

Tips on how to get my car down to 1050Kg would be appreciated.

Yea i like it think it looks good!!!!

Agree bout the bumper maybe have the morettes the darker colour?!
Althou just looked at ur old colours front looks ok as it was so maybe have 2 colours on the bumper to split it up a bit!

You wanna keep similar to the colours before so people know who u are but the silver changes it to be a bit different go for it
