Got the car home, made some changes straight away, took the LCR splitter off as it was in two pieces and change splitr valve from atmo to recirc.

Also painted the front mount in black to disguise it a little

The car with no splitter and black front mount.

Gave the car a quick wash this morning and change boost gauge as old one was like watching a disco, new autogauge 30 psi gauge from halfords.
