Still work in progress at the moment, waiting for the front bumper and side strips to come back from the bodyshop, plus the exhaust isn't sorted yet either, but it's certainly coming along nicely IMO plus he's done everything (apart from the spraying) himself.




The Wings West kit was dead quality by the looks of things, and the chap doing the spraying has done a very nice job.

It's only an LSi Marc, picked it up cheap and with verrrry low mileage so he was happy.
Think he's going to drop it a bit further once everything's done - it's on Koni coilovers at the mo, and there's still a bit more tweaking that can be done on them so it should be lower yet 
safe_si - Um, no he's not asian... what sorta comment is that?

He's still got to debadge it yet, plus I think once the exhaust is on there it's going to make quite a difference.
I'll drag him along to a meet when it's done.

Chris - Just over a grand IIRC, on a J plate with just under 60k on the clock. Only had 1 owner and was in immaculate condition so a bargain IMO!
Marc - I think him and his missus are going to sort an engine conversion out, but probably next year TBH. First up is finish the bodywork, then sort the interior (Corbea recliners are already in) and the ICE

Very nice looking civic, hope he's having the wings west front to match the rest of the kit. Would have gone for a more Jap style rims but the wolfrace still look good.

Chris - Not sure actually, private sale I think? And ta very much Where you live then?
JKGSI - Yup, got the matching front too I agree about the wheels, but he got those for a very good price so that's fair do's.

The 1.5 LSi engines are actually very economical. 47mpg stated on parkers. but i know theyre economical. my mate had one. used to get 100 miles to a tenner easily.
My previous 1.4 corsa struggled to get 80.
