Very nice - huge step up from your previous car too!
Good pics / location too.
20mm isn't much of a drop though? 
I love how you can have such personalised plates too!!

1. Very huge step up 
2. i cannot drop it a lot more since my garage is not street level and at times when going down the ramp it already scrapes the from rubber beneath the bumber. i could go down to 30mm but would need to remove a part of the ramp 
3. those are the cheap personalised plates. 3 letters and 3 numbers. then we can have the more expensive option of ANY 8 characters you want. but that would cost around 1300GBP.

just to give an idea of the progress the car has made and where i want it to go....
first showroom pic

how i want it to look:


changes so far where the sport smoked headlamps, 17" alloys, carbon fibre b-pillar cover, red calipers. not bad for 2 months of ownership i guess

thought about VXR/OPC style rear lights (smoked) but actually quite like the bright red on white and black so they might stay on for now. the money will be spent on the kit and lowering first
