Crappy pics, but here's how it looks now
Sorry about the pic quality; I'd just washed it prior to putting it in the garage, so didn't want to drive in the crap to another location just for a few pics.

Looks really smart, kind of radicaly subtle (if you know what i mean)
Loving that de-spoilered look with the lip replacement, where do you get a lip spoiler like that?

I got the spoiler off a guy on here, but it's an A-Line item, and you can get them from Japanparts........but they ain't as cheap as I gotmine lol
The boot lid was a plain one with no holes, and was a brand new item (so in pimer), but from a breakers (Grade A)

Very nice mate, its all in the details - black headlights, dark rims and the carbon ducts. Love the spoiler, did you keep you old boot and spoiler? That way you can have the best of both worlds

Thanks for the nice comments folks.
The brake ducts are from SRB Power, and are indeed Chargespeed items, although they took some getting! I paid for air freight to beat a three Month wait, and still ended up waiting something like seven weeks!
Not to worry, they arrived and the drivers side wasn't too bad to fit (complete with duct direct to the filter), but the passenger side was a fookin nightmare!!! The "brackets" on the back of the ducts are fibreglass and are pretty brittle, so needed trimming, etc in order to get the duct into place without snapping them off. The fit was also very good on the drivers side, but not so good on the passenger side.....it's pretty much hidden now.
Many thanks go to Mr Chocolate O Brian for taking the time and making the effort to drive to collect the bootlid from Grade-A for me. I was away at work, and he volunteered his services to help a mate out......much appreciated......I think the end result is worth the effort
I did all the work myself except for the painting of the boot/spoiler......I generally do as I like tinkering
Next?? Errrrrrrm, 450 to 500bhp or maybe......... an M5
