Your car looks amazing. A lot of hard work but it will definitely be worth it. I love the white 20s. How wide are they?

This is a great thread cannot wait to see it finished.

Something I noticed and probably missed it, but id this thread two different cars? It started grey and now it's white, and the reg plate changed too. Im thinking its two different cars having the same job done and miss read it cause Im knackered.

Please put me straight. 8O
