nice car i really like what you have had carried out on the car and its a bit different to the usual. have you thought about getting the bit behind the front number plate done in carbon fibre?



i told you that you should do that ages ago in your thread :rolleyes:

Ooops! Must of missed that ! I'm on with it now anyway :p , quite hard with it been so low down on mine!

Any chance of you posting some close up pics of your difuser sarah? Like in the corners near the top etc , did they remove it or do it on the car? As in is the carbon cut around the lines or pushed behind through the gaps?

Ps: you need carbon on you're front S , if you need it doing send it may way and ill sort it out :)

I'll get some more pics at weekend, as it's dark now when i'm getting home from work

I don't think they've removed it as it looks to be in one piece, but it goes right the way under the car.

I've ordered a debadged grill to see if i like that, if not i will be carboning the original 'S', or the other half will be for me.

I'm thinking of doing the mirrors, not sure yet though.

They removed it from the car, because when i called to see it round at the garage (it went in for mot aswel) i was like what's happened to the rear of it :doh:
There is a join, but only visable if pointed out.

Hmm , how do you rememove them? I thought it was plastic welded!

What have you got planned next when your piggy bank is full again?

WHEN my piggy bank is full again, that will be sometime off :):):)

Not sure what i'm going to do, i'm trying not to think about it at the moment

Only had the car 6 months & spent a fortune on it

I've found a better pic of the diffuser, and asked the man of the house how it's been done :D
It's been done in a couple of pieces, but you can't tell unless you get on your hands & knees to look at it.
As you can see from the photo it's trimmed right up round the number plate lights.
Hope this helps :):):)

The piece under the car is joined below the number plate, then that top half is in one piece.
Like i say you can only see the joins if you get down on your hands & knees looking.

Good luck with yours, get some pics up when you've done it :)
