tigra scuttle panel fitted
before

After

And Finally Got Round To Fitting My GSI Replica Skirts






i will get round to taking more pics soon in a better location with a better cam but these will have to do for now.
also got a irmy front splitter and rear bumper that im not sure wheather to fit yet as im not sure how olong i will be keeping her for & depends on how much it will cost to have the splitter smoothed into my front bumper and the back bumper painted and all bumper and arch trim & skirts painted satin black.
comments & suggestions welcome 
enjoy

Looks really tasty with those skirts on, looks spot on
Fitted a tigra scuttle to mine and think it looks so much better.
Get that splitter and rear bumper on! Don't make me come up there and force you to fit them

Why do people like the tigra scuttle?
Standard scuttle looks better imo.
Maybe diffrent wheels next ?
And black magic tree is much nicer

Lovely little car. Unusual colour. Not seen one in that shade in the flesh. Wheels suit her to a tee.

i now have a forest fresh magic tree in ( its green).
wheels are staying because i havnt had them very long and still like them.
i really like the tigra scuttle it tidys the wipers up a bit i reckon and gives it a more sporty look.
is it just me or when you take pics of your car it always looks miles better in person?

I think it would look so much better without the rubstrips.
But except for that it looks excellent.

iv been thinking about that mate but im not sure if the colour under the rubstrips will be slightly different shade if you know what i mean but dunno if you seen my other post in general chat about bodyshop mopping to see if it would sort that out if i did remove the rub strips.
here's a photoshop a member did fo me a few weeks back without the rubstrips,and i cant make my mind up wheather to fit the irmy front splitter and rear airdam i have lying about.

don't know if it is 'cause of the light though, but the skirts look really white.
Other than that, lovely

What do you lot think about having the rubstrips removed and the boot debadged?
and do you think its worth adding the irmscher stuff,i still have not decided if i wanna spend my money on a engine conversion or buy a C.
since iv added the skirts i love my car even more.
