Details of the other work/mods will be announced asap.
Some "phat" undercar neons, some blue LED washer jets and a subwoofer, obviously.
When can we see it at the croozes?

right, back to some pics...
I decided that the old wheel just look like some chav in a saxo with a body kit on it so have borrowed some wheels from Paul @ Zen to try them on for size. These are wearing 888 rubber in the right size for me and were the right width and offset I believed.
Anyway, I took them down to ABW to test fit them on the car:
Spot on
and from above:
Again - perfect, the wheels will just tuck into the arches perfectly
Side view to show what they look like:
Looks like these wheels will be staying - I love them

They are Hyper Zero-1 wheels, 18x9 ET30, available only in that bronze colour for now, and all fitments are 5x114.3 PCD so only fit 05-> STIs or on cars with a hub swap.

You mean front bumper?
It will essentially be a WRC front but with some modifications to enable greater cooling.
Underneath that will be a custom front splitter incorporating brake ducting that can be unbolted easily for day to day driving.

Oh lol. Those are Daren's wings as mine were being moulded - just bolted those on to check the wheel clearance.

I've loved the drive up there for the last two years - awesome scenery along the coast road
and the hospitality and curry in town was spot on
The track was pretty good too
