Is that a genuine part? Front shut line shows a large gap?

The fitment isn't final. The gap is due to a dent in my front bumper that I just can't seem to remove. I'm guessing something has misshapen it during the course of its life as I noticed the front bumper had been painted previously. I'll attack it with a heat gun one day. It was from xenonz

You have nothing to apologize for.

The car looks stunning.

Out of curiosity how much lighter is the Cs bonnet compared to the old one?

Quite a bit I had a look at the weight difference a while back I'm sure the cs bonnet is around 11kg where as the standard is somewhere closer to 25kg. I fitted it alone and can attest to the weight difference being pretty substantial.

I second that. To most, this car looks amazing and I bet it puts a smile on your face well done

I get that.... the M looks much better but isnt the most practical car - its loud, hopeless in wet/ cold (which lets face it is 80% of the time!)

You have created a car which suits you - and looks pretty cool too.

Whats next on the list?

I fancy some CS rear light on mine - but cant justify the £3k price tag!
