He's not wrong. I've got two and I wouldn't have another round nose (until I build a shorty (for our lass))

Why thank you. The weber manifold is a 6 inch, theres about 5mm clearance between the filter and the weber box! The exhaust manifold is a Maniflow LCB no idea what stage or whatever, richminiturbo gave it to me and I sprayed it black for added horsepowers.

I love the car, but you need to lose that Carbon plating crap on the slam panel and rad-shroud. That's chavtastic!

That's another story. Carbon fibre mirrors are OK ( I'd paint them), but adding carbon where it's already steel. Beats me...

Yeah I see what you mean, but I like things to look nice, so im covering up the crust looking steel panels and holes that have no use. + im not so worried about weight.

Not the best day today...

Some 2½" 3mm thick steel tube rained from the sky in the garage today.

Unfortunatly the clubman took one for the team...



Big news, grill badge came through today.



Put it back on its wheels so I can start fitting the arches and cut the body etc.

Dents are a minor setback but sooo friggin annoying.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.
