I'll be honest with you....they're stupidly easy to fit. If you cant fit them your an idiot, which I am sure, you are not!

You sir are wrong......

I can break anything, sometimes just by looking.

What size of wrap did you use for your screen surround? Is it one piece or are there joins in it?

Car is looking good!

I've no idea, I just gave the car to a bloke at ttints in Luton and i got it back 2 hours later done. It's all one piece.

Hi mate,
Do you mind me asking how much it was for this?
Can do by Private Message if you'd prefer.

Need to meet up and compare motors - would be good to see what stage 2 is like? Is it a TMS remap or someone else?

TTints did the screen surround in 3M Carbon Vinyl for £90, and the internal sunscreen for £15. chinky chinky

V-Grill will be Carbon, Badges will be left chrome however i've got de-badged caps now (just awaiting on them to dry!) and i'll be anodising the fuel cap & surround black. Stage 2 is carbon rear spoiler, front spoiler, air vents and a shorty diffuser. Stage 3 is a wing on the back, coilovers,12mm spacers and some Comps which is my treat to myself if I ever win the lottery!

What do I need to do to stop it being too much like yours?

If your badges will be chrome - that'll be fine

HIDs fitted. Not as much as a bastard as I thought it'd be when I realised it was actually quite easy to get to the headlights.

Also, goodbye crappy silver vauxhall centre caps and hello slightly suspect customised ones.

I'm undecided on them. They look OK on the car. Just off to give her a quick clean down and stand back and see what I think of them on the car.

Try polishing them with car wax, if you want them to stay shiny when they are dry.

Where did you order your black wheel bolts from and how much? I got some from demon tweeks and the thread pitch wasnt consistent all the way down the bolts, so i need some new ones.
Cheers looks good btw

Sorry for the delay!

Another vote for moonland from me thumbsup

looks a nice example you've got there.

Have you fitted the wheel nuts yet, can't quite make out on your wheel picture. Just wondering how good the black zinc plating is & if it chips off the first time you torque the bolts up? Also have you done anything with the silver locking nuts left on each wheel?

chinky chinky

Must be said the nuts are on; the camera is pants and the light is even worse so they don't shut up. Theres' absolutely no chipping and they were torqued to 82NM. I'm sure when the sun comes out and it's detailing time they'll have made all the difference. Locking wheel nut - will be replaced with a black one if i can find one. Think Irmscher do them.
