I bet you do, and they would if they weren't so small

Brakes and engine are the next priorities after the respray (with some coil-overs maybe slipping in at some point)

Always liked the look of aero catches, although i cant bring myself to cut up my bonnet!

Too small!! lol

Any more info on the colour? or is it going to be a suprise?

It's going to be a surprise, the bodyshop has been briefed and he's going to mix up some swatches for when I drop the car off so I can decide

Repainted the front strut brace in anticipation, and also got a stick on number plate for the front, but I'll give the paint time to harden before I stick it on
