Not so much an update really.
Car is going in on the 23rd for two stretched tyres on the front. Hopefully it means I'll be able to turn again. Having 165's fitted instead of the 185's currently so I'm hoping for a nice bit of stretch.

Nothing to really tell you about. Tyres have moved forward to tomorrow or Monday. Only the fronts will be stretched until the 10th so balloons on the back, stretched on the front
Here's a photo shop of what should be happening:
It will be a slightly lighter brown. Didn't want it this dark. The bonnet and roof will be slightly creamier rather than the white it looks.
A photo as it is. Just took this on our CCTV:

3.30am and I was bored so dragged out the other half for a few photos.
Next up are pressed plates ( I cancelled the order in favour of the teddies) and I'm currently hunting a GTi splitter to get the front down a little bit more!

Will the VR6 splitter fit without the big bumper?

Not so much an update really. Purchased everything I new to refurb the wheels. Going all out and rebuilding the lip as much as possible. Going cream with a brown bear.
I'm also wanting to go lower so I'm also looking for some arch trims so I can cut some metal out for clearance.
Watch this space!
