looks great - love the wheels and grills. Where did you get the grill from? Fancy it for my gb-10

Nice plate!

The wheels powder coated?

Re: O WHAT A NICE DAY SO i WASHED THE CAR!!

I had the grills made by ZUNSPORT for me not that high tech but secured with chrome screws with dome covers. Yes powder coated - not cheap. The plate I had to have but paid over the odds for it - but if I ever sell the car may help the price? If you want close ups of the grill I can post them if you are interested - Peter

love this model - lovely

stunning alloys too!

and the plate will help resale (even if it adds nothing to the price)

Yes please, if you have one. Completely missed the plate - nice. Also noticed colour coded external plastics, the more I look the more I like what you've done.

Out of interest, do other road users flash their lights thinking your DRL's are fog lights? I've received a fair bit of DRL rage, to be fair they are very bright - not many people pull out of junctions on me though

Re: O WHAT A NICE DAY SO i WASHED THE CAR!!

DRL rage is because people just assume anything in that area are fogs!

nothing to do with brightness or being blinded..... just a hatred of decent lights on cars

but people who do drive with their fog lights on when its not foggy should be slapped.

Re: O WHAT A NICE DAY SO i WASHED THE CAR!!

Because they are too bright or just because its not allowed

What about those mercs and vws that turn on a foglight when turning a corner?

Re: O WHAT A NICE DAY SO i WASHED THE CAR!!

Yep they do flash wave and anyhting else. I do wish I could have the choice to switch them on and off? I would like to use them when the side lights are on? switch the side lights on and the daylight lites go off - I am sure this can be done. If anyone reading this can help it wold be appreciated - Thanks PeterC.

looks really good - but 'I' would remove all the badges and colour code the scoop to match the alloys.

The exhaust trim don't do it for me - but each to their own

[petronic]

Re: O WHAT A NICE DAY SO i WASHED THE CAR!!

Yep trying to do the scoop as well - but in keeping with the "red theme" have a few more ideas but not sure they would work or look good? Exhaust tip yep - not a 100% happy - was not sure about upgrading the rear end - any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

A couple of older photos of the front of the car - the grill l as promised:
