Default new defi's, plus new crystal lights

managed to get hold of some defis, the standard boost gauge, oil temp and pressure. with a carbon fibre pod

pics at night







pics during the day





















new rear lights, makes a huge difference imo. car look a lot fresher(also removed carbon sticker i had - see profile)









the bad part - cracked my splitter



and kerbed my wheel - wasnt me, the guy who sold me the defis thought he could drive



well pis**d as i've only had these bad boys for a few weeks and it wasnt even me who kerbed them

finally had time to take some pics of the finished job
looks okay imo
whats your opinions on the new scoop

splitter fixed







new scoop





new look



i personally think the scoop sets the car off, the original was a bit on the small side....
let me know what you think

Looks like a decent job for 300notes, spliiter looks new
Scoop looks good from the front, but a bit wierd from the side imo.
Didn't you use any black mesh on the scoop? looks a bit wierd with such a big empty gaping hole.

They're not live gauges. Just a fancy graphic equalizer

True. But at least the mesh will protect the engine from any unwanted crap with a scoop that big
It's amazing what gets inside my scoop.
Cleaning my engine a few weeks back, and a few bugs had been laid to rest on the intercooler
