Thanks Matt. Will defo keep u updated. Haven`t decided what suspension yet but am on that now, will be custom jobby so i can get the power down. The rims look the dogs danglies and really set it off. Will stick em on take some photos and post the pics by tuesday and will take pics of rear end for you. The diffuser has been properly designed to do what it says on the tin, and u r more than welcome to the design if it works 4 u, and having v8 power under the bonnet it would be a good move 4 u
.t he original windscreen will be will be cut down to fit. The roof chop wasn`t originally planned but as car was a sunroof model the a posts were a rust sandwich that i only discovered after i bought the one owner donor. So ended up buying non sunroof model and taking 2.5 inches off. Was nightmare job
as nothing lined up, but good came from bad !
