Yes on the brake front! I want bigger ones again! 280s aren't as big behind 16s. Wouldn't say no to the S2 twinpot 280s though!

I'm buzzing man :love:

The BBS are going too look awesome when they are finished and on the car. And a set of 312 brakes behind them would look amazing aswell :drool:

[B)]

Can't wait man.

see you on the 3rd arun. love your attention to detail!

Someone say attention to detail :happy:

You definitely going to be there? Bring Willy along x

Updatings

Started taking my car apart for the US bump strip

Started cutting the bump strip up to get it to fit using a hack saw (I was also slightly tipsy), slipped and cut my finger open so fixed it with ducktape

Then started prepping/filling the bumper, still got a fair bit to do. Some pics from a local meet.

Car is looking awesome Arun, I really like the US rub strip. Im guessing you are smoothing out the plate recess??

That Fabia looks awesome aswell :drool: [B)].

I have been having a looking at the Fabia VRS's for a while now.

Cheers Craig. The Uk strip has a recess in (can see it in the pic below), whereas the US plate doesn't, is smooth all the way across and has the side lights.
The bumper doesn't have a plate recess, just that it's got marks and holes where the plate used to be. I've been sanding and filling in them in so it'll look nice and fresh when sprayed! The US strip will be getting colour coded when the front end gets resprayed!

Yeah it's not that bad ;) it's Gavin's (gac on here), a dirty diesel pushing around 200-210bhp, not to shabby!
