The width and height is good for me, i\'m just not 100% sure about the fixings on it i can see why its fixed that way, so it hangs over the back. It just doesn\'t quite look right? Do you know what i mean? Perhaps it will grow on me though, get a full on rear shot, so i can see how far over each side the spoiler hangs

does that wing do anything other than slow you down

Not personally a fan, i reckon if you widearched the rear it\'d look mean though

Rear spats now fitted. Not the right shade of white but its not like its a show car lol

before

after

going in for some stickers tomorrow. nothing major, just a couple here and there

I like that mate looking good

L18M · June 14, 2011, 12:47:26 PM

finally stickered up a bit.
not OTT, plane and simple

just some more interior bits to do (gauges at some point) but on the outside thats pretty much done. maybe different front bumper later on and tinted windows.

maybe a few more small bits here and there.

I think the wing would have to be like that, if it were placed further forward it might have issues with opening the boot. Looks good

although I would de-tango the front indicators, but that just me

B.Martin · June 14, 2011, 02:56:45 PM

As mentioned before i\'m liking it

my home made twin level turbo heat shield made from old exhaust heat shield.
reason for twin layer is from watching a survival prog. where then they made a shelter in the dessert they have 2 layers so air can flow between the 2 layers and keep the bit below cooler.

only found a wire brush thingie that attaches onto the drill after i installed it >.< D\'oh!

Looks practical! Definately needs a polish though mate

Spoiler looks way better now than when you first got it back and it was 30 feet tall. I quite like it as it is now!

Quote from: L18M;765513Cusco BMC stopper finally installed

this has to be the best pic for me, i always wanted to know how they were fitted and what they were for:yes

L18M · June 29, 2011, 12:35:23 AM

thanks

have to agree with the best pic. had me confused for a while also! but with some group head bashing finally found out how it fit.
google didnt even bring anyting up

374bhp at fly at 1bar and turbo didnt run out of puff!
surprising as its .84 hotside on large street ported engine.
Full boost by about 3k rpm. I would of thought full boost would be sooner unless the porting is not so aggressive?
(305bhp at wheel)

anyone got any views?
