You can see the difference in the quality of steel they use vs vauxhall. I got a long middle one instead of a back box because the back box causes alot of restriction whereas that middle bit doesnt because its just a pipe with a bit of padding around Smile

I was going to but see the little bump above the tip? There wouldnt be one on the other side so it would look weird and also i wanted performance so had a really long middle box rather than a back box so its just a straight pipe

Well at least it wouldnt of been that noticeable and thats the exact reason why the biturbo/1.6T bumper with dual bumps is so sought after

So i have done quite a bit since last posting. I have put groot up on the dash [Image: 57c8c8b93c26798e06d5295e6bce3922.jpg]
I have put a dtuk tuning box in the car. It didnt seem to do much but after playing with the settings it seems to have done the trick! Its such a feisty car now but it likes to change down two gears instead of one when i kickdown (auto) so i have played with the pedal box to basically increase the distance that i need to push for the second gear shift down which has worked so very happy with the result up to now Smile [Image: e24a6626fd3c25c9812d92e7e428ec27.jpg]
I put a rear lip protector on which will help if the gf accidentally slips and the wheelchair drops and it matches the colour scheme i was going for [Image: 6556bb4b5bdc8c9ce863f92c8161fd5c.jpg][Image: 2f8fd43fd4a9d75723d86ecdc893fa47.jpg]
Also put on the dash cam sticker to hopefully stop people getting up my ass Smile a spare wheel and jack kit with the foam and tools is on its way Smile i need to paint the callipers when that comes so i can test the spare wheel while my other is off Smile got a few splitter fins which im not sure about but will see when i test them on Smile trying to get one of those vauxhall rubber boot protectors which i think will be alright Smile bought some masking tape! I KNOW RIGHT! Its for the brake calipers when i get round to it and sorry for the long post but no potato here

I have done a couple of mini mods to make my life a bit easier. I have put one of those things to stop stuff falling in between seat and centre console so it stops that ballache when i it happens. [Image: 42b05e8443462d62641a6c4fd9cab4e3.jpg] also put a metal and rubber cover onto the place where my foot rests so it matches my vxr pedals and also stops my foot from slipping when it spasms Smile [Image: 65ed3fa3c5be3b9fc392ec3b15fd00c4.jpg] i have received the spare wheel tools in the foam so thats good and a few more that i shall be doing. Stay tuned
