Thanks for the comment, have a few more plans for it before UD09, including refurbed BBS and custom brake paint. :)

USA specification bumper, basically an American/Japanese rear bumper, which accommodates their square format plates:

Matt I suggest you edit out your plate number. 
Without traction power is nothing!

Thanks, but I don't really see the point of editing out my plate, tbh. If it's against T&Cs then i'll happily do it.

Ill have some updates soon.

Getting the BBS CH I bought new in summer refurbed, and have spare calipers and carriers set up, and grille trim to paint NATO green, all in readiness for UD09. :)
