Seeing how much work you've had done at AKS, did you have to pay for the decals or did you get them free? :P

Moving over to Flickr, sorry for the broken picture links!

Visibility is fine, you just see the supports not the wing itself!
N24 was the look i was after! i just need wider front wings and rear arches.
i am looking at carbon arches from the N24 car I have found a chinese supplier lol
edit: sorry yes it is also my daily lol. i have a motorbike to get into london but i drive this nearly every day.
Uve gone sticker mad  :rolleye:

Wots it all in ads off

Suits the car - liking that update! Bet that gets a few people looking...?!

All you need now is a set of wide arches and a wide track conversion!

EDIT.. You posted about the arches just as I said that. I was half-joking, but it'd be awesome if you did!

Not sure on the michelin man now though...thinking of making taking off the large one on the rear.


Anyway, went to Santa Pod, had a good day.

Set a new PB, 13.6 @ 102.

I'm sure I could get to a 13.4 but I didn't want to break the car and I was happy to finally get into the 13s. Had a bit of luck with launching :)

Great picture! :drool:

Do you notice a difference on the handling at higher speeds with the bigger roof spoiler? :smiley:

Great times! That's faster than a stock Scirocco R. :smiley:

yes I do notice it seems a lot more planted at higher speeds. Doesn't seem to cause too much drag either really.
i think i could improve time more with more practise but i was happy with the time.

sorry forgot to reply to some other comments

Looks great!

Where did you get the wing from? I bet it would fit my MK5 nicely... :wink:

thanks.

i got it from a contact at a race team. fitting was not easy as you have to custom make mounting points and also drill into the boot.

Like  :happy2: :happy2: :happy2:

thanks :)
