I was considering the scuttle being done in gloss black, not high on my list at the minute though! The rear diffuser will be sorted with the triple r composites one :)

Thanks mate :)

Looking good mate. Personally I'd have the rear lower though.

What other car would you get if you sold the FR?


When looking side on it doesn't sit too high anymore. I wouldn't take it any lower as I scrape it a few times on bigger speed bumps anyway, any lower and it will be worse haha.

Not sure to be honest, fancy a 330 m sport or something. Will be a while before I change this anyway, I'm really happy with it :)

Nope, didn't want the hassle of private but this way we should get more than trade :)

Wasn't worth removing the splitter as there's a fair few marks on it - they aren't that expensive new either :)

Hi ,
What vinyl was used to wrap the front section of the bumper in?. And you mention it doesn't affect the Park sensors , this is my worry about doing mine , Did you cut out holes for the sensors? or wrap over the top of them?

Thanks

I believe it was 3M gloss black vinyl wrap. I got a professional to do it but it was just wrapped over the sensors and not cut out :)

Grand job , I was worried it would affect the park sensors as it was covering them, No problems at all with yours?

Mirrors & bumper

Hi I've also got white Fr, does the panel behind number plate come off easy? And how did you remove mirror casings? Cheers, car looks amazing by the way

The panel behind the number plate was wrapped while on the car as it's a pain to remove.

To take the mirror caps off you need to remove the mirror glass first and then you can release the tabs. If you have have a search there are guides on how to remove the caps :)
