Like your thinking, the de-badged 5 slat will look better being the colour the car is.

You come to any decision on the wheels yet Beef, how wide are you planning on going ?

ta bud , i think it was a bit of a marmite item when i fist got it but think folks opinions may change when it fitted up ect ,

wheel wise , not yet , think im staying 17s , and would like ch's with fat rears , but it means buying them as a rear pair and a front pair separate to get the sizing i want , and would have to be gen aswell , so theres 1k without tyres ,

still i think there perfect for the old girl !

but my rosejoints i orders got sent bk to mcgill by the postie - and should be with me tomorrow , so ill get on with looking at mocking up the rear end and offering a cpl wheels in so c whats what size wise ,

Genuine will set you back a penny or two Beef but when you have put so much time & effort into the shell you can't scrimp on the wheels can you mate

lol ill sort some piccys over the weekend ,

gaz popped down last nite with the parts that he had left ,

everythings spot on , but it looks liek whn carrying the spoiler into the house ive just clipped the leading egde of the spoiler ,

its not major , a dink about half the size of my little fingernail , but the paints cracked slightly ,

total fail on my part, would no doubt be fine , but ill send gaz a pic and have him make an opinion ,

so been a tad quiet of late , been settling in to the new house and sorting the babys nursery ect,

gaz came down thursday i think it was and dropped off the kit

with it taking up room in the house the missus gave it the marching orders

to this eve ,it was taken to the gargae and k popped over to help with a test fitting ,

nothings 100% fully bolted up , was to get an idea of the fit ect ,

some pics ,

grille fitted







spoiler fitted





rear bumper on there aswell

front bumper and end caps were cheekly fitted , well it would be rude not to lol







overall very happy with it , couple of little niggles the bumper brackets are a little dry on the inside. wouldnt be an issue if the bumper didnt sit away from the car as it does lol so it makes them visable .....

no worries , k will blow them in



and speaking of k , seems his talents know no bounds lol


hes taken up carbon wrapping now


couple of practice parts a pair of cossie roof trims and a door handle







genuinely wanted these to come out like shit lol ......... but they fucking didnt lol

finish is top drawer lol , reflection and shine is unreal and its propper pukka cf !!


so it looks like a shitload of parts will be getting wrapped by k ,

as well as a few other cool parts and bits coming from a few other pf carbon peeps



ohh and finally got my rosejoints lol

will hopefully start playing with the rear end shortly ,

beef & k
