just had a flick through and some of the mods done in the beginning were really tastefull (ditching Lexarse lights etc), not a big fan of the diffuser but the car is looking ALOT better than when you got it!
Fair effort bud!

Right, got a little parcel in the post today
Momo handbrake gaitor to go with my richbrook handle
Also hopefully today or tomorrow will get the front struts off my other westcoast to put on my 'R'.
Had a thought though... are they a straight swap from westcoast to VTR? Kinda puts a spanner in the works if they aren't..
Anyway, got the rear dampers ready to be fitted by Rimz Inc.
