[sykes197]

right a little update, spent a bit of time getting it polished and waxed
well the weather was ok, added heko deflectors black front and rear badge covers and the little rear quarter renault sport decals that my mate knocked up for me, also some exhaust tips but i think i need bigger ones, im also thinking about wrapping the roof gloss black as i have the panoramic sun roof, anyway

also have a carbon centre console to fit just waiting for the warranty to run out, its going back in next week as the sun roof is leaking and it has a power problem

 

[Giles]

very nice mate

 

[Deaks]

Looks good man I don't know whether to put black covers on the diamonds but I like your's. I'd agree though that the tips are a tad small mate!

When payday comes I'm taking my nimbus to get black vinyl roof - good choice

 

[Zoe]

eBay do great exhaust tips bud... There is a link somewhere in the exhaust section that Roary put up... They look spot on on mine...
