Getting mine sprayed next month hopefully just like this. Think you got the right idea Berry... Looks good.
I also went to rtech for my map and like others have said its fine driving normally then mad when you put your foot down. Its an easy drive from Guildford area too, think it took me an hour and a half and it worked out abit cheaper than revo. :happy2:

Have you also colour-coded your side-skirts as well? Just wondering if it would look odd if I left them standard black.

Yeah I got the lot done along with an ed30 front last year. It's made a huge difference.
I'll get you a pic tomorrow.
It's a pain to do for the bodyshop, they have to build it up to get it smooth and ready for paint, which cost me in labour as well as the paint. It's not as simple as flatting down the textured finish. So to get a standard bumper done at a bodyshop would undoubtedly cost more than I'd take for mine!
So, it'd save someone money on labour, as it can be painted straight over if they're not Tornado Red, and save on labour and also paint if you're already Tornado

I actually said I wouldn't do any cosmetic changes to the exterior but this has got me thinking. I'll have a look and make a decision. I think you're right though, if I do that then the side skirts would need doing also.

You know what mate, I said the same. Then I got the bug again..!
I'll take a couple of pics tomorrow and ping them over. I don't have a build thread or anything to point you to.
I actually like the look of a standard car with Monzas, it's a clean look, maybe with a bit of lowering though. But if you decide to colour code things, which does look even better... give me a shout
