amazing car...on the first picture of it lowered, it looks like a matt black on the sides, i think itd look amazing in with a matt finish!
what size spacers are they dude? and do the tyres now scrub the inside of the outer wall (if you know what i mean)

The spacers are 15mm ones and no, there is no scrubage at all and the backs are wound right down.

I got the FK Konigsport kit Guiness;)

The splitter isnt sitting right but its better than it was last week. I doctored it at the weekend as there was a buldge in the middle but could do with getting a new one idealy.
