Great choice in alloys Si - must drive very well with these fitted?
Front valance looks spot on - can't see any difference to my ED30 version  :smiley:

Cheers Dave, no sure if the placebo effect or not, but seems to turn and stop much sharper. Be happier once got some good rubber on them tho. Looking at replacing the rears too. Any recommendations? Goodyear, Michelin and Verds always seem to pop up in reviews.

Yeah pleased with splitter  :smiley:

Nice!  :happy2:

Anthracite wheels always look good on red cars, gives some definition between the rim and tyre.  :happy2:

Very pleased with the wheels, was a bit of a last minute rush, but for the price I couldn't let them go. Along with the splitter have really given it a fresh look. Side skirts and rear bumper next.
