Personal opinion is that particular wheel (GB Minilite?) looks far better without the centre cap fitted.

Yeah, just looks a bit rattier though? No big deal either way. Certainly wont be spending any money to buy+paint a new cap.

So, I spent 20 mins this morning lowering the rear. I need to do the front a smidge too, but it looks better already. I had to pop out so I couldn't do both this morning.

Great work Alex. Personally I think it would look better with the bonnet fitted normally though. Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

It can't, the ill-fitted Frontend means that there is a 1 inch gap at the back if I put it on properly. |

Heh. I am still thinking about replacing the front. Who makes good quality FG/CF fronts? Or, should I put together a metal front, if so, who makes decent panels? |

There is not much between the grp manufacturers, might be better refitting the one you have as it will be as much work to fit a new one and the results may be no better. http://www.twin-turbo.co.uk

Can you repair holes in fibreglass and retain some stength? I reckon if I could patch up the holes in the front and cut a better angle into the wings, it would look a bit nicer. |
