I'm sure that the bumper and the bonnet are originally from James Bentlys old S2 RS Turbo "SOY" As I sold them years ago for James.

Its not got the big mouth one on anymore. Looks better with out. I just can't see to clearly on the front splitter, don't think I'm slating the car as it looks bang on. Especially engine bay

Bonnet is still soys old one an bumper isnt anymore but has still got the rs valance on it. im thinking about putting the cut out back on to be honest i know not to everyones taste but i build my cars to my own taste. still sorting egine out at the mo just waiting on my custom manifold to be made with external wastegate then getting it set up.

Your rs turbo looks stunning mate love the front of it looks well mean and the cossie rims look hard too, the only thing I would change is removing the bonnet rasers and adding chrome front indicator bulbs other than that Top looking motor, oh by the way your engine looks beast.

I still think it looks cool in that mag picture above, not as keen on the wheels as i used to be, but it kinda suits the aggressive styling of the front end i suppose. Think it had big Hi-Spec brakes all round as well, so it filled the 18s well.

Im in the process of putting new hi spec rear brakes on. just powder coated all of the underside an stone chipped it all so mint again. Just fitted power steering aswell which is so much better also has adjuster inside on dash so can make it softer or harder. Waiting on new manifold then ready for setup

looking spot on, take it you've not drove it much if running in but do you expect much hassle off the old bill for the wheels poking slightly? I've been done a few times over stuff like that.
