cars coming along great, alot of work has allready gone into this in so little time, would be nice to see this on the roads around Teesside again, it looks a great little track weapon and it deserves another chance....well done

going along the black intercooler lines now, think it blends in better and wont affect the cooling so its all good...

that front number plate is just crazy and its yellow? Is this going to be used as a daily/show car or a track car?

the front number plate is not staying on the car, it will be replaced with a standard size plate in the correct colour and without the gatso deflective spray on ;)

Can i just point out the car isnt in use at the minute, i wouldnt risk driving it with a plate that small id be better off just not having one and pleading it must have fallen off :lol:

and its going to be a daily car yes

if its going to be a daily, in needs lowering a tad more to get the wheels to sit nicely in the arches!

its on coilovers so will prob have a mess about, although from a realistic point of view any lower and itll be struggling to get around certain places, awaiting leon cupra front splitter so will see how low it is then.

Hats off to you guys your certainly getting it all together pretty pronto. I have been keeping an eye on this thread I must admit I didnt think i was going to be that keen on the front bumper but must confess it looks really nice! I also agree with a few of the others the intercooler looks good black as it ties in with your black wheels and dark bump strips.
