I'm trying to find the words to say to this thread.

But I think I have it. " Thank You" .

I'm enjoying the write ups and photos.

Keep up the good work mate. Great stuff.

I've spent all day today straightening up and repairing the boot spoiler , I'll be priming that tomorrow and the rear bumper .
I've also got an exhaust to make . The wrc bumper I've got has the exit on the offside so the back box is going diagonally across where the spare wheel well was . I'll get some pics up tomorrow battery ran out on my camera today

not to sound like a **** of an anorak, lol.. but just thought id say the hawkeye WRC only ever had the 06 rear light clusters (with the grey backing).. you have the 07 clusters in with the silver backing... not a big deal, just thought u might like to kno, depends on how serious ur taking it really! lol..

besides that, i think it looks amazing!!
