Nice wheels & brakes.

Unsure about the custom leather?

Crystal lights will look better.

I would also colour code, and maybe change to a more modern grill plus a different splitter.

I personally wouldn't go for a suede wheel or different seats/belts. I'd go for a Momo steering wheel if you want to change.

Generally looks clean as, some nice mods too

Looks very nice but the brakes look a little small!!!!! are you sure they are the grand turismo setup or a set of calipers on standard size disc's??

Hi Danny im live in Melksham

and the brakes are Brembo Gran Turismo Brake Kit if you look at the wheel a bit closer you can see the discs are 2 piece not 1 piece

Very Nice.
1 thing . Are the front Discs on the correct sides ??
The sweep of the groove normally flows with the fwd direction, It may just be the design but they seem to be opposite !!
You can tell for certain, with the Ebc Turbo Groove

I see what you mean Dean , but the discs were on it when i bought the car
I just had a look in the Brembo book that come with the car and the book says thats the way they go . Plus these discs are two peace not 1 peace like EBC Turbo Groove ones
