Lovely car!
Been toying with the idea of blob rear lights on my hawk for ages. Looks loads better.

I can't comment on the springs as I'm on coilovers but I'd imagine the springs are just as good

They are well made but PU plastic can be a bit brittle and wont win against a low kerb or a pheasant

Looks very clean. Blob rear lights are about the best looking set for the newage
HTA splitters are great, mine has been kerbed a few times and I just keep repainting the scuffs

Had to remove my splitter since I put my standard 17s back on, and took the 18s off, seems to scrape on everything now even when I go up the drop kerb outside my house??
You scraped on anything yet??
