Looks cool mate, really like the colour. Black grille slats and rub strips would look awesome! 8)

Thanks for the feedback everyone  :smiley:
@lewis1641
The wheels came from a mk2 facelift VRS which is 5x112. Pre-facelift are probably 5x112 too but I can't be 100% sure about that.
@dubsport
The rub strips are staying colour coded as the colour is too nice to have black rub strips. I did run a black badgeless grill briefly but the stock grill looked much better.

The pictures I took yesterday turned out rubbish. Camera phone  :rolleyes: A mate of mine took a few pictures with a proper camera so I'm hoping he'll post them online. I also tried some rolling reflection shots down a street with super polised windows but again they turned out rubbish  :grin: The car still hasn't settled down yet but it's only been a few days. I just want that finger gap gone  :grin:
