Update time , cars been sat up for winter and I took the wings off to make a mould .
I've had a few hours today to get it together for it's first outing for a while .

while the wings were off I fitted a pair of summit wing stiffeners



I think the rest of the kit may take a little longer to fit

I was down at Darens on Friday and I have seen the Summit parts in the flesh and the quality of fitment and finish is amazing.

Summit Racing gear is really good quality. Internally reinforced on Strut Braces.

Need to talk to you about a rear strut bar for the Spec D Darren.

Well bloody hell!!

When i started reading this thread i didnt realise that i had seen the car and spoke to you or one of your colleagues about the conversion at Combe, last year i think it was?? Am i right, it was at Combe?

Cannot for the life of me remember the cost of having this fitted, sure its in the 11 pages somewhere, but i cant see it. I have considered the WRC bodykit by Accolade, but local is always better. The Accolade kit was about 2k delivered IIRC.

Spot on car though mate, takes some real tallent to achieve this by hand, well done
