more pics as promised

plans? straight LPG turbo on the L18, just to be different and to take advantage of the government rebate. i'm not after huge power, just a bit more fun.

Adjustable rear is needed asap, it has around 3.5 neg camber and 20mm toe out! then some better brakes aswell.
Wheels are 17x7 advanti turin but needed bolt on spacers bringing offset to +10mm, and yes i know they are illegal.
Cheers

Looks great. I'm usually not a fan of fitting different tailights and removing chrome, but it's worked really well with colours.

Any details on where you got those glass guards? I like the flare on them, wouldn't mind getting a set.

sorry, couldn't tell you who made them. they came on a car i bought for spares, someone was going to build a track car but didn't get very far but i managed to score the guard, bonnet, grill, front sway bar for next to nothing.

they seem to be modified from what they were originally like anyway, it looks like someone had cut away some of the flare then replaced it with the larger one.

i thought there might have been a loophole for older vehicles but i'm going cross-eyed searching the ADR's.
Probably should fit some anyway.
