That body kit is about 80 hours work all hand made from steel and is now part of the car. The paint job is not finshed yet but that will soon change!

say, how long have you been running the car as it is in the pics?

i'd say put the heat sheild back in, or any sort of heat shield between the brake cylinder and turbo..

not that i'm experienced with mechanical stuff or anything :shock:
