Another small update,
id been on the look out for one at a good price for a while as i dont intend on spending full price on one of theese,
However, as usual Livvy had just what i was after for a great price, so snapped it up!
No idea of the make other than it says "carbon made" on the back, but was imported in an ek9 they had,
Came with a neosys super low rail aswell
Pics:
Will get a pic from the back at lunchtime!
Really supportive & Alot lighter than my recaro, Just need to get some harness'

Awesome build up man.
Have you got anymore pics of the rear interior?
Also is it one piece of double layered carpet you have covering the spare wheel well, and the rear of the car i.e. once piece which you've cut to fit around the rear plastics and cover where the seats used to be? I'm hoping to do something similar to my 9, and yours looks pretty much the way I'd want mine

Cheers for the comments guys
ill get some pictures mate! Its basically an offcut from when i re-decorated my room under the original boot carpet around all plastics etc, for the sake of the weight of a piece of carpet it really cut down on the noise, its still loud, but not as bad ill get some pictures and PM them over to you soon mate

Cheers Man!
Small update, or repair.... Basically my wheel bearing was well on its way out, so got a new one & then went upto see my mate si with a k20 EK to get it fitted by his fine self, after going out in hereford friday night we got up fairly early and went and cracked on! He had it done in about 40mins. Legend
Out with the old, in with the new..... Just need a nice new hub-nut on the other side now haha
We then went for an epic drive into wales via a road called the Skenthrith Road or something like that, Awesome stretch of tarmac!. There was a nice hump in one section that has us both 4wheels in the air. Nothing like taking the 2 cars out for a good drive. Love it!!!

Many thanks to DanF Who sorted me out with this TRS 4Point 3" Harness, After pinching some eyebolts off my mate i got it fitted! holds you in place great!. Ive left my oem seatbelt on anyway for those lazy moments! Also finally go around to giving the car a good clean / hoover which was much needed! Anyway.. some snaps!
Couple of it nice and clean, Will get some good pictures one day
Still unsure of my new sticker haha ill see if its a grower as im not usually one for stickers tbh!
Apologies to whoever it was on here i saw with the "eknine." sticker and liked the idea so much i copied it! my mate makes stickers and fancied trying it out so i went for it!
(think i got the sizing a bit wrong tho as yours looks better) haha
