Hi Al, convoy was good, I kept lookiang at your car in my rear view mirror, you had your xenons on and it looked the biz! TBH, my girlfriend kept complaining about the cold weather so I spent a alot of time in the car!  :signLOL:

The rear badge is off ebay, it's real carbon fibre but a 'sticker'. I had white worm on mine so I needed to do something about it!

Here's a link: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220678956955

Hopefully, we'll get a chance to catch up on the next meet  :happy2:

Thanks mate, Is your rear badge a 2 piece one? Any ide if this one would fit ok over a 2 piece one?

Thanks for the compliments, Still got a lot that I want to do to the car.
Still need to order a front splitter like yours too, but undecided if prefer the votex one.
Need to wrap up warmer next time. I was frozen up on the stand as well.  :confused:

swf7y:
Mine is a one piece badge but as far as I'm aware it was made for a two piece badge as it's from America and I'm pretty sure they didnt have the one piece badge like our early models.

I've still got loads I want to do to mine too  :wink:

For me, it an OSIR front lip was the only choice. I really like it, however the Votex is a good choice  :happy2:

Well, after finally finding a new job I continued to slide down the slippery slope of modding  :laugh:
I've had a custom downpipe fitted by Torqueflow (sorry no pics) who are local to me. They did a great job and are extremely friendly and genuine people who are perfectionists!

Next up was something I've wanted ever since buying the car - a Forge TwinTake  :party: :party:
Some eye candy:







I fitted the TwinTake myself. Much easier than I first imagined it would be. Although removing the plastic hose from the turbo inlet was a major pain in the b@llb@gs!  :grin:

I'm not sure what to do next. I've been wanting new wheels but might put it off until the Summer. SWMBO is not happy with me spending more money on the car than her!  :fighting:

I'm still at stage 1 re-map, considering going up to stage 2 or 2+. What do you guys think? It's my only car and a daily driver so not sure where to go from here  :confused:

keano:
Looks brilliant mate  :happy2:  Are you happy with how it sounds and all that?  :love:
