Car looking great mate, pretty much perfect I would say.
Can I ask where you got your Defi's from?
I am looking to get some but want to get from a genuine supplier, do not mind paying more but want to avoid the wrong places and ensure I get the right things the first time.

I had, if I had bought a DCCD box then I would have gone for the clocks but its too late now, Defi link display gives me shift lights so I would only gain the red over green.
How’s yours going any more mods.

Going great -
Trying to remember what I have done
Got new alloys, Tein coilovers, handles so well now.
Got the sports cat fitted, took off rest of cats, fuel pump done and then remapped.
290BHP and 350 Lbs , great daily driver.
Not sure what to do now to be honest, very happy and just thinking of what to do next.
Do want to get the centre 3 gauges for sure, only got pillar boost gauge just now.

I find them superb to be honest.
There are 32 different settings on them, massive difference at either end of the range.
On full hard to ride is very hard but handling simply superb, on full soft car is a bit looser but still handles ok; not harsh at all.
I have them about 14 from Soft, works well for me but I still change them quite a lot; takes less than a minute to change all four.
Would highly recommend them, not cheap but I do not really do cheap as I have no problems in paying for quality, I know you share those thoughts.

Small things but Both very important if you intend on doing some track time, the aero catches simply because of the power/torque your running, tow hook is a must before any track day, in the unfortunate event of an off or a breakdown the trackday marshals will literary drag your car from any point they see fit if there is no tow hook.. with FMIC it is not an easy task a couple of guys have gone for the materiel strap type otherwise you may have to fabricate a bracket from the sub frame....
Have a great time at Le mans

Chris, your car is looking sweet with the roof vent addition 
you must have been bricking it when the cutter came out 
I know Frayz has a great reputation but it must have been horrible hearing the grinding noise.
Car looks awesome, for me fatter wheels & tyres would be a nice touch

The Frayz / MADDOG comedy show made me forget what was going on, TBH all the prep and time that Frays puts into doing these job is well above and beyond what I had expected so I didn’t have any worries 
.
Going to save up and get the suspension sorted (ohlins or BC) and then I would love to get some different wheels, in white.
Thanks for the kind comments

It was mega, gave the Anti Lag a good work out (got home and the SD card wouldn’t read so I lost all my photos)
Very good point made, Will make sure I get that sorted before I track her .
Thanks

the Ohlins in standard form are not available for the Hawkeye, but are available if you have £12k+ from Mick Gardner racing 
I had white wheels on mine, pain in the ar$e to keep clean fella, never again
Looking great
