Also reverse Chargespeed vent has arrived from Ryan (prodriverrules). I was never happy with the RCM vent or the EMB vent I owned in the past. This one is a Carbon one which has been painted and looks great, and I dont need to worry about the vents collapsing. If you need any paintwork done don't hesitate to get in touch with him. Awesome service and great attention to detail, very rare in this day and age.

the finish in my opinion was very poor on the top as you can see underneath at the sides and looks rough and unfinished. But I am very picky. I went for the chargespeed one, very expensive but its carbon so should not collapse with heat.

Thanks Martin, expecting to pick the car up week after next. It should be a lot quicker than when Glenn @ Revolution took you out in it after it was first mapped a year or so ago.

Looking forward to seeing the white bug out and about

Ahh "steve" I didn't realise this was you
Your car was quite oe looking and clean back then.

The bug is looking the way I sort of want it ,done quite a few things to it over the last month or so.
It's quite standard performance wise so quite a step down from my last hawk STi.

I have a 20G and lots of bits to go on very shortly + map.

It's all about individuality
