Everything looks awesome man. we have pretty similar cars, which is probably why I like yours so much. I must ask what strut bar you have as all the other ones I've seen don't have that much clearance on our m42 cars. Keep up the great work man!
Really need to figure out an imaging site to post photos on here...
