Those callipers stand out nice :D What size stickers did you go for? I think the originals are 70mm but I put 90mm on mine. I also had El Dude strip mine back to the anodising and repaint in a semi-gloss hardened paint that doesn't need lacquering, so it'll never peel again :D

How comes you didn't take the callipers off though? Worth doing, isn't it? So you don't have any red left behind?

I dont think theres any red behind lol, took about 3 hours minus drying time and that, also i used 2pac paint and just sealed the decals with a dusting of lacquer so i dbout they will peal for a long time.

This car is really gorgeous mate, well done. The black roof really looks good on yellow LCR's. Top work!

Thanks LukeRST

I haven't had time to do much just washing and polishing.

ive got Powerflex poly bushes front wishbones and rear axle on order so will get them on soon and bought a new clutch aswell but not ready for that just yet there isnt any probs will the 1 in there so wont fix what isnt broke just yet

The idea is to get the clutch and Diff paid for then fit on a Sat that im off work

Not really i like the power how it is. not much can keep with it. i still need to play with V tune on the rollers and log and watch air/fuel make sure its safe to push the boost and advance timing a bit. then maybe put water meth on see what i can do then
