Seen this when I met him going down to Ultimate Dubs last year!

The Bora boot lid is an amazing touch, it seemed to handle rather well also Hamish and I were following him for a while in the Rallye

Depends what widths of outer lips are available to get the correct width of rim. That was the case for me to get the offset and width I wanted. Looks could prob come into it aswell.

Mods to relocate the number plates are very cool Looks perfect apart fom the wheels. I don't like them bolted together that way, they look odd imo.

I like it, not a total fan of the wheels but the touches on the back are immense, really shows next to that standard one.

The wheels aren't bolted together wrong, that's how they're designed to be, they're proper motorsport ones, not 'cheap' road car bbs ones

Looks alright I guess. Wheels look 'bloated' to me. Not a fan.

Smart little car. Lovely wheels. Needs more headrests though.
