Sure you will be seeing it again soon!!!

At last I have got my roadster back with the kit fitted. Its take a little longer than expected but this is due to unforeseen circumstances. Firstly massive massive thanks go to CS and Andy. Andy has worked his butt off on this car and I personally think its amazing. He does want it back as he isn't happy with a couple of things but I am not going to point them out and due to him being a perfectionist these are very little things. CS has been a legend as usual and has put up with me calling him more than his mrs and probably giving him more of a headache then she ever could!!!! So onto pictures, I have only been able to take the 1 so far as its been dark before and after work, so i will be taking some more on Saturday when I am round at Nurrish's pad. Just thought I would put this one up as a starter before the weekend.

I see what your saying about feeling safer but thats not always the case. Sometimes a private sale, espeically if its an owner on here will have looked after the car and most people are very honest about their cars. You bet your life they have also used traders from here so you know that its a good car. Don't rule out private especially as you generally have more room for bringing the price down in a private sale. In answer to your post though I don't have any experience with them, sorry.

Very good prices considering that most things have only been on his car 2 minutes. Thats your 3rd bonnet in as many months!!!! You must have a very understanding mrs thats all I can say!!! I would be a deadman!!

I see it there a couple of times a week and usually in a permit holders space so I presume they work in the building!!

Hell yeah, roll on 1pm tomorrow when I can go get it. I hope I can just keep my head on the important cup game I am playing in the morning!!!

Because I didn't want to be sat on 666 posts especially since its just been Friday 13th. Not superstitious but don't want to test it!!!!

Great news Mark. Was good to speak to you the other day. Will be in touch shortly about this and I will PM you my ECU number tomorrow.

Please dont call it that, it may not be to everyone taste but its hardly a failure! You got there just before me. It may be a fail in terms of asking price but not the kit itself. I have to say this as mine is currently having this fit albeit without the arches.

NOt at the moment, my car is at the bodyshop having them swapped over. Should be getting it bck on Sat though. They are in good condition without any marks or scratches.

Also now got side skirts to go wit these. Going to put a price against these and say everything (front bumper, rear bumper and side skirts) for £150. Let me know if anyone is interested, obviously this would be better as pick up due to size. Thanks Grant

Looks like nobody needs bumpers!!! Can somebody have a little bump for me please!!! I am only joking of course!!!

That sucks but I know how you feel, not had mine for about 4 weeks now. Really missing it but I should hopefully be getting it back on Wednesday and I will be all over the place!!! Chin up it won't be long before your back behind the wheel of your beast!!

Ok I will let you off then!!!!

Are you on Stoneleigh road all the time??!!

Its not just the deliver charges you have to remember the import duties you get stung with. Sometimes it works out more expensive as it can double the price!!

That is one of the nicest kits in my opinion. I wanted it but I just couldn't afford it. So instead I have gone for the full V3, not many Roadsters with that so decided to try it!!

Depends on what look your going for overall. If you had some other carbon bits on then it could balance it out. Some people have done black/carbon fin and ends but had the rest colour coded. Lots of options to go for out there. You need to have the wallet to get the car where you eventually want it.

Martinmac has a bigger spoiler on his. Its hard with the roadster due its rather large backside, the shape of the car totally changes with the roof up to the roof down. I generally like most of the spoilers on the roadsters with the roof down but I don't like the same ones with the roof up. Thats just my opinion though. Sure you will like Martins though as it is very nice roadster. Everything on Martins compliments, the kit, wheels etc. Probably best one I have seen to be honest.

I paid £100 delivered from the states. Depends on what look you are wanting to go for as there are lots of options.

I am currently getting an OEM style lip spoiler fitted to my roadster. I bought my from Spoilerdepot.com as you need a specific type of spoiler to fit without adjustments as the curve is slightly different on the Coupe and the Roadster. The first thing Martin will tell you is "remember the boot is plastic!!" so I will get there first. I should have pictures of mine up mid next week as its currently being fitted as we speak.

Done and still in the lead. Looking like it should be in the bag.

This has been a really interesting thread whether it was meant to spark this debate or not. I am currently having a replica kit fitted to my car so that instantly says where I stand on this arguement, although I won't have any issues with saying its a replica kit. I will buy genuine on some parts but replica on other, it all depends on the risk I am willing to take. My priorities are paying for 2 mortgages so where I can save money on car parts is all good for me. If I didn't have those to pay I could probably safely say I wouldn't be driving a Zed and have something a lot more expensive!! At the end of the day it will always be down to the person and I think the market will always be balanced due to the fact that for every person that will only buy replica (due to price or circumstance) there are always people out there that will only buy genuine products (as seen in this thread). So the people who are designing and spending the money in creating products will make their money from the people willing to only buy genuine parts and the rest will make their money from people who are willing to buy replica. The world is obviously big enough to support both sides of this arguement otherwise the debate wouldn't have even been started as only one or the other would be able to survive in the market.

You chaps need the stealth flash. Never get found that way and can still enjoy all the fun of Xbox live!!

There are a couple of nice examples out there at the minute that forum members are selling.
