just fitted a set of Tein lowering springs, which lower it a really decent amount!

Also bought the wheels - to be revealed in a few days once the tyres are on!

The car will be for sale once it's completed. It already has the mounting points for the hardtop - so if I can find one cheap then that will be done to finish the project!

thanks,

Faz.

wow, so it is!

I wanted the Top Secret front bumper for ours too, but couldn't be arsed with the wait!

Notice we painted the rear bumper slightly differently with the white/black combo!

White is the new black!

Hey guys,

thought I would post up some more progress.

masked up the back bumper to do some parts black using fineline masking foam


the finished article:


Also sprayed all the mesh satin black:


Fitted a set of Tein lowering springs to drop the car down:



Next, we custom-made a stainless exhaust, modelled upon the Blitz one...

BEFORE:


AFTER:



Still a little on the quiet side - may remove the smaller silencer box!

Cheers,

Faz.

I was as sceptical as you UKTotty!
But blow me, when I came home tonight my 3 year old twins had run one up for me out of some yogurt pots and some drinking straws  s:shock: :shock: s:shock:  

Sprayed it silver and just need to pop it on the car over the weekend!   s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

Threads like this (and the Hayabusa powered race car one) make me seriously jealous of some peoples fabrication and bodywork skills!  I'm about as handy with a welder as a one armed orangoutang.

As above - sadly I dont have the lip for the JDL front anymore - someone snapped it up when i sold the bumper I'm afraid!

Nice looking build though!  s:) :) s:)

Mmm... That will look good when done!  s;) ;) s;)  I still haven't seen a bodykit that suits my personal preferences better than properly fitted JDL kit. I need a spoiler like that too, something not too flashy.

yeah, i'm looking for £8k for her, taking into account the Cat D status.

Car will be sold with full service, 6 months tax and a fresh MOT.

We've spent a lot of money on the car and she's been treated to only the best in parts and repairs. It also already has the fittings in place for a hardtop.

Any interested parties, feel free to email me -  e mailto:faz@planetperformance.co.uk">faz@planetperformance.co.uk e

many thanks,

Faz.

Looks amazing, but I think the the front lip in this pic would finish the front off nicely, especially in gloss black.

Hi guys,

that front lip/diffuser looks nuts - where can I get one of those, is it a JDL product?

Still looking for a couple of things to finish the project - I would like to get my hands on a hardtop as the car already has the fixing kit for it in place.

fank you an good night!
