I have finally got around to posting some pics of my car it has had ea82t conversion, 19 inch wheels, four wheel discs awaiting bigger front brakes. Narrowing beam and lowering some more. drop spindles just weren't low enough Aeros gaurds are being fitted, removed the old porche style kit. 65 bonnet and front valance being fitted. Was on the road driving a little without engineers cert. still wasnt what i wanted so decided to srtip paint for respray again. and fix up the handling and appearance of the car.

the colour started out as hot house green corect. but we have changed the colour a fair bit by adding a light yellow pearl and adjusting the mixers to get a cleaner colour. looks great on the curves in the sun.
