I'm actually going to number it 55 so it's the same as the car I'm copying. :cool:

I think it's my cheapest option for a good look for now, run it with livery until I can afford a posh respray.  If it turns out good enough I may leave it like that.  :cool:

I may be asking for some help at some point regarding sourcing/making up graphics...

New exhaust tip welded on:

and refitted to the car:

I got it on a bit further after the photos and it needs a bit more adjustment but over all well chuffed, much less chavtastic than the old one.
