Finally  :signLOL:

First up the carbon bonnet with aero catches



A bit of work to do on the fitment but still it's very very light and looks cool when the bonnet is open  :laugh:

Next is the one most of you had guessed, a half cage



And finally, and my favorite, a full set of 2-way adjustable AST coilovers complete with adjustable top mounts  :party: :party: :party:



The car feels crazy now, it's soo tight and make 100's of different noises, can't wait for Combe tomorrow, just hoping for a couple of dry track sessions  :notworthy: :notworthy:

Well Steve bet you're glad to have it back! How you finding the suspension then is it nice and firm? Are you going to replace your rear interior quarter panels or leaving it as is?

Suspension is a new level of firm  :laugh: :laugh:

I will be getting rid of the rest of the inside panels out over the next few weeks and doing something similar to NeilM  :happy2:
