then she went to the bodyshop to have the custom rounded rear arches on ( I have got pics of that happening somewhere, i might be brave and find them on Mig to post on here)

She peaked out at about 5200rpm i think and it was 257.7bhp, 301ft lbs of torque = fooking good fun :D

the rear arches are front wings with the arches cut out, spun round and put on the rears, my car had just been valeted by a mate before some of those pics were taken (not the last two) he sprayed them with some stuff which made it shine...only problem with that is that all the dust then stuck to it and made it look poo lol :(
now i take them to the bodyshop and they areosol them with black paint, but they are being repainted properly next week, so they will be blingy shiney :D

Good lordy it was a fine car then and it is now MS Untouchable.
Wow I had no idea about the round arches, even when I was defying my Arthur Riatus and moving like mercury while doing my photo shoot.
That is one Crisp motor you have there Mel.

there might be a bit of bling coming soon
just had a thought, try this guy at: http://www.nor-mal.com/ he makes loads of stuff to any spec you want, he knows what he's doing and does an A1 job!
Might not be quite what you had in mind, but worth a guess!
