          QUICK UPDATE

          had to fit my 16s without painting them as tyres on other wheels where knackered and all the snow came lol



          just before xmas some old bloke reversed into me and smashed headlight indicator and bent the passenger wing and i had a slight mishap going into my dads drive in the snow and i found out my drivers rear arch was rotten
          so in the next week or so ill be fitting 2 new front wings , drivers rear arch , gte front an rear bumpers , irmscher headlights in anthacite and should get my wheels painted anthracite

                      I would leave the colour scheme the way it is, looks mean as hell at the front haha, just tidy the bodywork up & lower it....sorted

                        now you have put me in a dilema lol i was going to colour code the bumpers and do the bumper strips black and i have side skirts to go on and was going to do them black aswell
                        i do like the way it is now but not sure what to do with the bumper strips as i think if i did them black it would be too black
                        the car is lowered now but im going to go lower with it

                            Do the bumper strips black aswel, that pic looks quite good, i'd move over if i saw that behind me, just needs a big intercooler poking out through the gap in the front bumper (and a C20LET in the engine bay)
