OP would you be interested in the link below? Maybe we can arrange a discount with the seller if we can get a few interested parties.

That's who I used, as have a number of members on here. If you speak to Niall you may be able to get a bit better price but best chance is if you wanted more bits done such as front splitter

^ Did you paint your front splitter? I was hoping to do that as well. They've got it up for £165.00 iirc.
