My pleasure Ryan. It was worth the trip to see your Blobeye! The fact you're doing it all yourself is mind boggling.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, those wheels are awesome!

What's the plan for the boot lid holes dude? Also didn't you have a black FMIC?

Thanks mate. That boot is coming off ive bought a smoothed off one with all holes filled off Maz. So the carbon wing will be going on that. Yeah the fmic front was painted black but flipped it now for reverse inlet manifold pipework. Keeping pipework short as possible.

Thanks mate. I know it would be done alot quicker by sending it somwhere but I just carnt afford it to be done by someone else. Will take a bit longer as I keep running out of funds etc but makes it that much special when its done at the end knowing its be done by me and friend of mine whos helping out alot
