Same guy. Mine needs lowering, lightly tinted windows and I plan to change the rear badge and spoiler, then it will be complete cosmetically speaking.
I'm not surprised your career has been in design, you can tell you know what will work and what won't.
I plan to set up my own business in the not too distant future. Would love to pick your brains at a future meet (maybe Weston or Inters).
Cheers
