wheels are the right offset they are et45.
the blue colour does come out very light in the pics, but i got the powdercoating done for free, if id had to pay then i would have chosen a different colour

might buy a pipercross viper one day. only when they drop the rediculous price tag. i mean £200 for an air filter
It's not an air filter, it's an induction kit.
If you want an air filter, you can have an offcut of foam for a couple of quid.
If you want something that's been dyno tested and proven, plus looks gorgeous in the engine bay, you'll have to pay top dollar I'm afraid.

K&N panel filters are considerably more expensive than a Pipercross filter, plus they'll clog with dirt three times faster. Bargain

Your opinion needs some work then. An induction kit is different to a panel filter, yet both are air filters.
If you just want something that will filter air, then stick with a paper panel filter. Even paper out performs cotton-gauze in pressure drop tests (dust load).

Looks really nice. Blue is a real clash though. You missing your oil filler cap? Sort the driver's side wiper out too.
