Paint work and 90% of the body is lovely,only thing i can say dose not suite is the big stand out off the car jap bumper,it sticks out way too far mate..
Nice as an all in car thoug.

Proper breaks! Very nice. Im not one for the kits, except the wide arch kit which in my mind HAS a purpose. However I can appreciate a well prepared car 8) Nice.

Brakes are 325 mm discs cross drilled grooved and vented with aluminium bells, and 4 pot red brembo calipers! Cost me about ?900 from godspeed i think! www.godspeedbrakes.co.uk They do quite a good selection! Take a look! Had to buy new caliper mount bolts but as protec is just up the road from me that was a bonus! ?3.20 for four!!!

Wheels are veilside hoijens, painted black with the face done in silver with an ice pearl lacquer! Took ages to decide how to have them but im really pleased witht them and i think they look mint!

As for the front bumper im not 100% keen on it personally but its gonna cost me a fortune to replace it now so its gonna stay! Think it fits with the car though!

Stu!

Cheers for the comments guys!

How much did the wide arch kit cost and any site where i can get em from? ?? love the paintjob !!

Stoo
24-04-05, 12:24 AM
Think i paid bout 350 for the skirts and 4 arches! its 500 with bupers too!

Look for Pro tec performance and u cant go wrong
theyre made from moulded fibreglass and i think its an awesome kit!
Dont forget the fitting and spraying! Its a big job! The fronts are bolt on but the rears and skirts are bonded on, all the inner arch and outer arch needs to be cut back, new inner arches fabricating etc etc etc!!

Cost me 2500 for the fitting and a respray amongst other things!!
