Just a little painful cutting up over £1500 worth of carbon doors 2 mins after taking them out the box!!


Still fascinated by this write-up. Keep it up!

Really do NOT like the shape of that rear bumper, it looks like someone has hidden a USA spec rubber bumper bulge under the skin of yours.

Each to their own and I can see your point but in this case aerodynamics was the key over looks. The bumper will be modified and custom rear diffuser fitted. For this function, this bumper is ideal. It also allows us to mount the fuel cell lower which is key to weight distribution and balancing the car out.

To be fair it's the only bit I don't like and it's not my car and nor is it meant for the road .... i just think they could have made more effort to make it look a little less 'square' around the edges

It does look horrible, but I reckon when it's all in paint and the car is on the floor it'll stand out a lot less

Love the rear quarter panels, very beefy

covered in glossy red paint, a load of stickers, rear diffuser, huge wing, high camber wheels and wide rubber I don't think it will look out of place.

more pictures please
