Collected these today.
Had both front & rears done previously 11 months apart by the same company, but the apple candy red ended up being a different shade as they weren't painted at the same time!!
Apparently, with a candy colour this is normal?
So, had them all re blasted & painted again at the same time.
Everyday is a (expensive) school day...
Turned out looking good in the end.
Just need to buy the drilled / grooved 340mm front discs & pads & drilled / grooved rear discs & pads, then change out for all the standard stuff.

Ordered red grill trims and new front and rear badges
It’s a question of your personal preference, I had the sportline on but it always irked me that it looked out of place. Hence I swapped it out for the simple splitter.
The TransporterHQ splitter is easy ish to fit although you do have to remove the bumper to fit it properly.

Looks bloody awesome @moomin-j, mine are to go in to be sandblasted and powder coated but something very unique colourway… hopefully.
Thanks for the comment @Texxaco
You may not see them when driving, but when parked up, a set of old, manky, discoloured brake calipers really does my nut in when sat behind some nice open spoked alloys.
You going for a single colour or a rainbow LGBTQ+ type colour scheme?

Totally agree with your comment. It’s going to be a dark purple which depending on the angle you look at it will also show as gloss black.Thanks for the comment @Texxaco

I had a car like that.
Mine was an R33 and not as purple, more black. (not the best colour rep as its a scan of a photo print.)

I like the flared rear arches - a little like an Audi Ur-Quattro, which is my all time favourite car
How many speeding points did you get whilst driving it?
You can't have a car like that without giving it some oooomph...

I love the Ur Quattro as well. I always wanted one back in the day. Only 3 points as it happened. That car appeared in Redline magazine.
I’ve never driven anything else like it. 4WD and 4 wheel steer. Plus somewhere between 400 and 450 bhp. I knew a guy who was running one in at 850bop and when run in the turbos turned up and expected between 1100 and 1200 :O
Currently having a coffee in McArthur Glen outlet whilst @CRS Performance fits some bits to my van.
Hi there
ITS READY
ITS READY
I wouldn’t know where to start with all that equipment.

To be fair I just treat it as a learning experience albeit an expensive one. That and having a nice picture to follow helps. Although it's moved on slightly I just used this to piece it all together.
Now actually a cad drawing with some revisions to the stage 1 draft but I haven't brought that home.
I’ve fitted solar panels and extra batteries to motorhomes we have had in the past but never full blown electrics like you are going to do.
