Update 25/01/2013 First time home since everything has been sent, photo of the items received on the first page! Things to go on tomorrow morning with a nice clean too, Photos to follow. :group:

 

[200 Gordini]

no probs for the filter mate, do you notice a difference?

 

[Deaks]

Quick update 11/2/2013 - Cazan Diffuser and Sprintbooster :hug:

Just been enjoying my baby but had a little to do to her.

Angels parcel - fragile!



Just clips left



Offt



She's on!



Absolute love it, wonderful job by Angel, take my hat off to you sir.
Feel I need more black on the car now though, definitely black alloys, some spacers and H&Rs then I can leave her alone (maybe:s)

Also got my Sprintbooster on now (special thanks to Chris197F1!) Pulls so hard and makes driving her that ever more enjoyable! (thought the car had broken when I turned it off:foxspeed

Coming this weekend is a Karcher K2 pressure washer too

On Detailing World I'm looking at the AutoBrite snow lance, anyone had any experience with Magnifoam?

Her dirty backside

[Fernandez]

That looks awesome Will. The box was a long story, had to make it as I'd run out so over wrapped it. Lol

if your looking for new alloys then get a wider offset, that'll save you having to get spacers.

Anyway really happy you're pleased with it.

 

[Rogue]

Looking great

 

[shubz197]

Lovely car :thumbup: Lovely colour :thumbup:

I like your optimism about stopping modifications after springs and spacers...
Good luck to that!

 

[Chris197F1]

Looks great mate and no worries about the SB, glad your enjoying it ha ha

 

[Mikeyjp]

looks good GZ on the work you have done
