Cheers mate

I'm still undecided weather or not to keep this car and fit the spoon aero or try and find a GPW or NFR to do it on as I don't like that with a black car you seem to loose some of the definition of vents and bits like that, eg a vent on a black car looks black and blends in but on a GPW it would show up more and make more of an impact?

Good choice of colours there Nick, When I get my car back im going to wrap it in satin white to see if I like it or not.If I do I will probably go for a colour change like Chippo did.

Good idea glen, any idea of what a wrap costs?

Chao they sure are, im going to use the s2000 disc's as well.
I saw in a post that you were going to give them a try a while back?

Spoon mani, just needs a good polish.

The vinyl wrap itself isnt too expensive, I was thinking of doing the work myself.Daytona Dave did his own wrapping and said that with a few pointers and some patience its possible to make a good job.

At the moment im not sure of a few things time wise regarding my car but I'm thinking a color change to satin red or satin white vinyl is something I can address myself as and when I get the chance.

What's required for fitting the DC5 kit then?

I tried it on a 4th gen lude once and it required custom discs, longer wheel studs etc.

We need to make sort a meet when are cars are done,

Going to be some pretty special cars

Love what you have done this the S so far Nick keep it up and i am sure it will be even better,

Only thing i am not sure on is the spoiler, Always like the ones that mount on the outside but that's just a personal thing

What made you move on from the CR setup?

Tango PM'd you re the Brembos,

4x4 yep they should be epic, really looking forward to getting it all together.
I really like the CR set up but i have been thinking about The Spoon kit for a while and just thought sod it im going big!! bit worrying as the rear arches need cutting for the rears.

I have something sorted for the spoiler don't worry
