*****UPDATE*****

After doing some minor jobs that needed sorting I washed the car today.

Took it out for a late afternoon blast with a mate so got some photos during a stopping point.























It's booked in to a Porsche Specialist on the 27th to have the rear arches rolled so I can bring the back down with some new suspension

Thanks buddy Quite a change from the first photos

It's completely different to anything I've driven It has so much character and handles really well.

To be honest, I understand the whole LET and XE thing but so glad I changed. The downer now being parts are a lot more expensive for this than a corsa

I won't be tracking it at any show/event like that. The amount of hooligans that seem like they have to show off puts me off.

Thank Gav, I still feel like I robbed them telling people how I much I paid!

I like the plain plates but this is going to be used more and more around europe so seems sensible to leave the GB stamp on. Much nicer than a sticker on the back imo.

Yeah I suppose... but then that's on the body work

I'm so wavy on my opinions towards them too One minute I love them the next I hate them.

It's the gb on yours that makes me dislike them i think. Without I'd probably love them, legal font on pressed plates always looks too bold
I'd put mine on the z4 but my plastic plates are shorter and look neater

Yeah true.

Yeah I suppose it is, still need a hefty budget to do a big LET build though Silvia's have grown on me a lot more recently.

That's fair enough, at the moment they're staying though. I'll probably get two sets of plates made up to be honest.

Bloody perfect!

Pressed plates are fucking lame. Do not fit them to this nice car, you aren't 18 and this isn't a Volkswagen Polo that has been stickerbombed.


Really love what you have done with it, it's looks so complete, all the little touches. I'm even growing to like the front clear lights now. Wheels suit it perfectly
