I have to agree with everyone else. The car looks savage, do nowt more with the body work as it looks factory fresh as is.

Thanks mate.
Thank you! Defo happy with her looks, I will keep any changes very subtle now, I'm thinking some carbon touches will help haha

What a nightmare!
GrpA nuts arrived that I needed 11/16" and as I already knew in back of my mind, not studs are to short.
So, waiting for them now lol

I would have said don't paint the tyres but they actually really do look good on the car.
I was surprised to see drum brakes on the rear of a pretty quick and fairly modern car....that said, drum brakes do work pretty well.

A mate of mine had somenof his car parts skinned in carbon and another mate I’d seen doing his own.
So thought I’d give it a go... I skinned the rear boot lock strip. Also skinned two roof strips I had loose for Lucifer 2, thought theyd be easier to start with, not easy the firstbtime!
But I’m glad I tried and will be a lot easier next time, I’m quite happy how first lot turned out, takes a long process but if I can get even better it’ll be worthnit.

Managed to get a carbon bonnet for RS
It’s got some accident damage but nothing I can’t fix.
It’s one of 2 I had made years ago for some mates.
