Only just come accross this thread. Car is looking good. Glad the HIDs and FMIC were well received. 
RE the brakes: Grooves and vanes are different things.
KSports are straight vaned iirc and therefore look correctly fitted in the pics. The grooves (as fitted) will draw the dust/debris away from the centre that way.

Posted in other thread. Vanes are curved, you can see in the pic below, look closely at the vanes on the disk that are in the middle of the caliper, they are pointing down, wheras if they are straight they'd be pointing towards the centre of the disk. Yours are on wrong in the pics above. HTH

Il spin um round when the rears arrive then if theyre wrong - i never go instructions and iv seen other discs like that so thought that would be alrite?
Small update -
Boredem promted wiring in 3 of 5 gauges! by the time i finished it was gettin dark so A-pillar pod + wiring will be done later in the week i think - awaiting some new tools to do the senders so dont bother telling me iv lost oil pressure etc
Love em! cant wait to have ALLLL of them in! so glad i went for these
Next up im awaiting delivery of my b&m quick shift + k sport rears, then purchasing of my AVCR + fitting no doubt then centre console can go back in ready for my new dvd headunit + speakers! Lots of wiring of wires involved at the min
Also looking at header options + injectors + possibly a fuel reg...TBC!

Thanks ross, looks like some griding is required to fit my scoop, only a tad though thats obstructing it from sitting down properly. also been plumbing in gauge senders. really need to swap turbo/headers+up-pipe+coolant hoses all at once then while im at it i can plumb my temp sender in as it a biiitch to get to, no rush though 
decided for some handling upgrades in new year, its nearly all done, only a few more its i NEED, and a few more bits i WANT then fitting it all..should be ready for scooby shootout 09
anyway - pics of scoop nearly fitted
Looks really strange without a scooping scoop instead of a reverse
more progress when more carbon arrives later in week
