coldel Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 ...ordered from Mr Tarmac, arrived from the US via two US airports and one UK one in good time and completely unscathed A pretty good fit actually, some minor gaps but overall looks great...in my opinion. I would guess its a bit marmite but there you go This is only part I of the exterior look I am after, part II to be ordered shortly, that to be fitted maybe next week Quote
Willy P Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Good work coldel. I think that looks brilliant. Quote
Wasso Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Looks great Col, not my cup of tea but still looks the part Quote
coldel Posted March 6, 2012 Author Posted March 6, 2012 Another photo - looks better than the iPhone camera gives it credit for. When I get the other parts done will whip out the DSLR... Ended up getting Burnham Garages Bodyshop to do it for me, based in Slough, top blokes and a top job Quote
SteveRS Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 The coolest thing about it for is the way it's held on to the bumper Quote
evilscorp Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Looks great and before anyone else can get in there. Just needs lowering Quote
JoshThePonce Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 those alloys dont do the car any justice imo Quote
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 those alloys dont do the car any justice imo They are Volks Josh... Quote
sasha@lazytrips Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 those alloys dont do the car any justice imo They are Volks Josh... All a matter of personal taste I guess whether they are Volks or not. I personally love the splitter, but really not a fan of the wheels either. Quote
coldel Posted March 6, 2012 Author Posted March 6, 2012 They are 2 piece Volks GTVs, although the angle of the car probably doesn't show them too well as the centres are black with a polished lip... Quote
Wasso Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 It's an aggressive splitter but not sure the bumper is doing enough to be aggressive too. Lowering would make it look ace, but then on London roads it's just not feasible Quote
coldel Posted March 6, 2012 Author Posted March 6, 2012 I know what you mean Ian, I moved the number plate down and it made it look a lot softer on the front than before, it made quite a difference. Might move it back to see how it looks... edit: before moving the number plate Quote
coldel Posted March 6, 2012 Author Posted March 6, 2012 I considered taking all that stuff off Taddy! The Ings front and carbon bonnet, but I want to be aggressive and kind of smooth at the same time so not over the top - hard to describe really, subversively aggressive? Once I add a few more parts to the overall exterior it will take away the 'look at the front' feel it has now... Quote

I personally love the splitter, but really not a fan of the wheels either. Yeah you are right... be pretty boring if everyone liked the same thing.. Quote
brillomaster Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 I really like splitters and that looks Big front bumpers are a bit marmite, but splitters give a car proper race look, and that stillen one looks really good. Quote

Yeah you are right... be pretty boring if everyone liked the same thing.. each to their own, it's just the style i don't like i guess, i've got volk TE37's on mine Quote

JoshThePonce Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 but besides that, that splitter is very looking at getting one myself in the future, that or a nismo v2 rep bumper, undecided atm Quote
Sam Mcgoo Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Really like that Looks like the forza Motorsport one on the Xbox. Quote
