Thanks all

There is a wing idea on the cards....

Update

Pulled the front end of the car apart again to hit off a few bits under there.

My new axle stands allow me to get the car super high





Started by flatting back treating and then hammeriting all (most of) the metal work behind the bumper. gave the intercooler a bit of a clean too.






Then I sorted my bonnet pins(that I've painted satin black) out so they could sit flush to the bonnet using nuts and bolts instead of crappy plastic spreaders and sealant that was used previously




Made up this detachable bracket for my reg plate




Then came the tasks of cleaning the engine bay up after the bodyshop filled the bay with dust didn't take too long and added a sticker whilst in there!



So all clean and better than ever in there!

Such a lovely motor, but i've never understood why you've left the bumper vents grille-less. It looks like they're missing.

Thanks mate, Erm I've never really thought about it. Not saying this is why I haven't but I've never seen one with grills / mesh. Not sure what it would look like!

The work at Midlnds Car Care has been completed. Full wet sand detail and coated with Gtechniq products.

All I can say is wow. I'm picking this up at 2pm. It feels like Christmas.

Few more shots of the car since I've collected it.





Beading from the Gtechniq EXOv2 is incredible.



Rare picture of both the 200 and the 635 being clean and protected!



Took the S14a for an awesome drive yesterday too. Got the setting the Gizzmo nailed and it pulls like a train! Just need to fork out for new discs for my k-sports now!

Washed the car ready for a photoshoot on Sunday. Tried out my gtechniq quick detailer which is fantastic too easily cuts through any water marks



Nice clean paintwork.

Literally one of the very, very, few cars ive seen that actually suit those ridiculous wings.

I think its the crazy cartoonish proportions; stupidly low, wheels stupidly wide, wing stupidly tall = win!

Thanks for the comments guys. The wing wasn't a decision I made lightly! I've always wanted one but only felt the car could pull one off recently.

Took it out for another drive today. Feels fantastic to drive. The mid range is just devastating on this car! Love it!

Not a fan of the wing endplates but other than that I think it suits the car nicely!

I wasn't keen when you first put it on Sean but it has grown on me massively!

Went for a photoshoot with 'Danielle Austin Photography' Thursday and it was awesome. She's still processing the pictures but I did get this snap on my phone that I love!

I can't wait to see the proper pictures though!
