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
