Graham - looks really sweet mate, as has been said a subtle drop (not a council slamming) will finish it off a treat :D

All credit to you fella, it really does look the business. As the guys have already said, just a nice drop and that'll be it!! Any ideas on what sort/type of drop/springs you'll use.
