Thanks for the comments guys, the paint is Pearlescent purple and does look very nice when it catches the sun properly otherwise car looks black as people often comment.

The front lights are C-West lights, they were already on the car upon purchase i have just added the lenses over the top, i believe they are not cheap approx £1000 for the set, sometimes you might get lucky on ebay but from importers they are quite expensive :(

Touch wood when i say this, so far not a problem as the local police know me and where the car lives so have left me alone really, have been to meets around the country and so far lucky not to have a problem so far, i think if you have a plate that is very clear to read they probably dont bother as much ???? :3Confused

Ahhhhh unknown to yourself and well everyone else the new wing is here already just need to go fetch it baby :Thumbs-up should be on soonish, looking to collect this coming weekend ie next saturday, and hopefully have it on a week after that maybe ?? :Tongue1 and its not a cheap wing either proper carbon and all

The bonnet issue is alittle annoying though, carbon bonnet does not suit the colour of the car thus am thinking of getting the standard bonnet cut with a singular longish vent in the middle with mesh covering the opening ??? Not sure how yet but be patient peeps :eek:

Looking great as always mate,

The purple does look good.

Is the carbon on your new wing the same colour as the carbon bonnet ?

Yea wing will be the same as carbon diffuser and carbon bonnet colourings,

Orange RX - The carbon diffuser is fully carbon thus usually around £460, you can get copies for approx £160 or so but not carbon just plastic ?

cars looking ace gurj.  look forward to seeing the new spoiler.  like the apexi decal on the bonnet and the mazda logo on the diffuser.  all pretty sweet.

on a different note, have my rx booked in at the new premises wgt this coming monday.  will let you know how it goes.

regards,
Nik

Looks fantastic. Quite apart from the polish (amazing how much difference it makes to the depth of colour), it looks more "finished" with the covers on the headlights.

Top job :Thumbs-up
