Think of going mat black with the paintwork.

Thoughts?

War Westfield! I think it will look awesome. Mad Max goes racing!

Passenger seat in by the way.... doing drivers one tonight I think. and starting Fire extinguiser plumbing.

going widetrack rear end like Stus with extra wide carbon arches too...

Carbon front splitters have arrived.

They look comically shit!!! but work well apparently.

Very funny to look at though!

I'll reserve judgement till I see it I guess, I suppose with the carbon bits and shiney exhaust you might get away with it, but im not really feeling it personally.

Plus I love yellow so im totally biased

SO near to being finished now.
SO far away from "budget trackday car"

Cant wait to drive it tonight! weather looks amazing!!!!!

Supposed to be doing a Spin class at 6 but knees to sore anyway so it will be zooming over to Stus at mach 3

and continuing my efforts to leave my 'marks' at every set of traffic lights on the way!!!!

Outside the crown pub looks like the Start line at Santapod still!


ooooh and one more thing was tested at the weekend! the Ł6 Intercom system for Lidl!!!!

It works SUPERBLY!!!!! bought a pair of Ł39.99 flipfront helmeta from there as well!

REALLY nice! comes with a bag and spare visor as well! the whole helmet was cheaper than the spare visor for my Sparco lid!

I think that looks rank

Mind you, the graphic designers I work with describe me as "visually illiterate" so my opinion might be best ignored TBH
