    Looks tasty, think the standard front bumper looked better though

    Yeah definitely, more aggressive skirts and rear bumper would compliment it, if you do that I’d have the navan ones off you too

    Looking pretty damn aggressive. Seems like you got a nice paint bill coming up unfortunately. What do you plan to use the car for?

    Slow progress on the 14 took advantage of the time I’ve had off work over Christmas managed to get the wings finished off all the gaps sorted and mounted with new stainless bolts the vents re shaped as edges wasn’t the best how they came now the gaps are good I was happy with how it was so got started on the aero catches which all went well apart from losing one of the nuts then it was time to finish the front bumper and getting the indicators to fit took a lot more filing and shaping then I thought it would to get the indicators to fit but there in and good then it was just time to mount the bumper with new stainless bolts

    Got a nice amount of time on the 14 on the weekend spent the hole weekend grinding back and treating the front arches and sills in por15 can’t recommend this stuff enough after seeing @l16jay using it I had to try it after he gave me some tips the sills and arches came out sweet so thanks dude was glad to not find any serious rust anywhere still got the rear arches and hole under side to do but as weather turned to crap I thought I’d put the car back on all 4
