Update..Got a chance to do a couple more bits that I have been meaning to do for a while on the car!
First up was to remove the Recaro decals from the side rails on the seats..
This was an absolute pain! Recaro have used the cheapest vinyl that I have ever seen! Very thin, and when finally removed, all of the glue is left behind, so its a big job to get the aluminium cleaned up afterwards.. Had to use a razor blade as nothing else would budge it!!
Anyways here is the side mount before..
And after..
I think it looks a lot more subtle, kind of the way im going with the car really. Less in your face, carbon bits etc..
With that in mind im removing the carbon bonnet tomorrow and im going to have it painted in Candy White. I tried vinyl but nothing is close enough to the colour im after so its going to have to get painted..
Next up was to wrap the lower section of the front splitter..
I had been meaning to do this for ages, its a fairly long job though so I kept on putting it off ha.. Anyways! Done now..
Pretty pleased with the results, ties in to the rear nicely and gives the front end a bit more of a purposeful look!
I also re wrapped the grill, it wasnt quite right so thought I would do it while I was there!!
Looks a lot better now, much cleaner looking!!
I also had my car detailed by Jonny at Pure Detail on Sunday! Very pleased with the results, you can see in this pic the paint has been brought back to life. 90% of the swirls have gone (I didnt go for a full correction) and there is a nice protection later on the paint now!
I have the new short springs from KW and they will be fitted asap, these will allow me to drop the front end of the car another 40mm.. The rear still has about 30mm to come down on the adjusters so its going to be pretty low!!!
Im getting the carbon panels for the fog light blanks tomorrow so ill get the two lower grills sorted out over the weekend and they should be on next week along with another
'addition'..
I have decided to buy a set of summer wheels to run for the next few months.. Im still having the Alleggeritas for track / drag days but I just though while the weather is nice, it would be worth going for it!! Pics next week..
Little teaser..
