I thought you were stopping modding the Cupra and getting an .:R Mike  :laugh:

Mike, If you wanted to come down to Curby for fits and giggles I could probably arrange to pick you up :happy2:
Golf R gone.

I got to see your car in the flesh when I was at AKS last weekend and it does look the nuts  :happy2:

Carrying on from Rich's PS of the red on the side of the CF bonnet, if you follow the red from the a piller on one side down the side of bonnet that line then goes into the bumper curves round and back up the other side. My thought is for the bit between that curve on the bumper and the front grill is, if its possible, to wrap/paint it black to match the roof or CF to match the bonnet, I think this would tie it all in together nicely as then it would all flow from the curve on the bumper all the way through the car :happy2:

....You are NOT going to like the SuperPro bush kit, Mike! :wink:  :evilgrin:

I'm in the process of writing a Review which I hope to post later today.

Red topside and carbon underbelly is quite sexy and subtle (says he who has done the same).
