Just got it back tonight from another trip to the garage so had a chance to get started fitting the tech 2 kit.
Only got the borbets and the back bumper on tonight should get it finished over the weekend.
Just a sneak preview

Cool well done!
For a moment there i thought you may have pulled it out of the bin and stuck it in shot for added council effect

M tech 2 front on now.
Removed the center bar on the front spoiler.
Going the stick with the tech 1 boot spoiler rather than the tech 2
I'm really happy with the way it looks now.

It would look even sweeter with red recaro's
Still not happy with the way it's running think it's needing a new zaust and front wheel bearing.

I assumed the litter was added by the snapper to add to the general council theme that is going on !

The car looks great, lovely colour. The borbets are much nicer than the fox wheels.
Best of luck with the car.

Never seen the check panel mods before ! Nice touch ! - Is it difficult to do ?
