    Enjoy the new diff, you owe me a new finger as it gave me one hell of a blood blister taking it off the other car

    Passenger rides are always welcome :thumbs: just come and ask whenever you see me and as long as I have time then more than happy!

    Right nearly there now, can't believe how quick but then again how stressfully looooooong this whole process has taken lol - was just over 4 months ago it was just a bare shell and I wondered how it was going to turn into a car....

    Anyway back to the update - started bolting the bodykit on - Big thank you to Stuart @ KN Solutions for taking my lovely new bodykit and copying it for me so we've got a mould "if" I break it lol

    Also got a new Carbon bonnet from Japspeed :thumbs:

    Just waiting for my BGW now :p

    Few pics with the kit placed on and waiting to go to the bodyshop for paint.

    awesome work so far, but the kit is a bit marmite, might look better with paint and different wheels, but good luck with the rest of the build

    Didn't want to put a spoiler on it tbh but the back just looks lost without one so I have a nice 1700 wide Sard BGW coming :p

    The wheels are only on there so the others don't get fducked! got a set of Rota GTR's 17x9.5 ET12 all round.

    Kit will look awesome once painted and fitted properly ;)
