I like the silver/white mesh, it's different and looks nice in the flesh, to much black puts me off
Yep just working out what size spacers

Yes the sprayer spent 3 weeks smoothing the kit out.
I'd say im over the £10000 mark. If i was to price everything up without discounts i'd be well over.
Ill make a new project thread soon, start to finish and price everything up

Alot of inside work and problems along the way, such as rad falling out of the engine onto the motorway!
spent £1000-£2000 on repair work alone. Labour costs alot these days!
Project thread with all info is now up

i agree on the wheels they either need to be pushed out to fill the arches, or wider ones.
really hard kit to do ive seen much much worse,
i appreciate the work thats gone into it,
