also i think you should do the rear diffuser matt black just to break it up a little?

either way looks factory!!

When you did the headlights geoff, did you put them in the oven first to melt the sealant, or did you cut through the sealant and rip them apart?

ive been down to the garage today for a little job and got to say it looks even better on the wheels!

hevangel: the lights are staying as they are, as far as i know! they are euro spec anyway, might look better if they wee smoked slightly to match the fronts but im not sure.
