Great looking car!! What a transformation! Glad to see your hard work has paid off man. Is that a real carbon fibre bootlid? If you need a fit, non smokey b18c then I'm yer man!

Sound lads. Bit late with an update. The car came back after 6 weeks of misery with spray painter he sprayed it twice and still not completely happy so i'm looking for a refund and getting someone else to fix it up.

Anyway will leave the giving out for another day. here's a few pictures after i got it back together. Have a Mugen twin loop on it as it's due NCT. Just need to bled the brakes and door cards, then we're good to go
