He should change the panel too I think, 16v´s should have black panel. Grey is so boring...

Very nice :D

Like the way that he's extended the rear arch extension though the join is very obvious.

The front bumper is also an aftermarket one :?:

The front bumper is a standard one with the bars in the middle grill removed, they screw in but when removed they leave little triangle shaped hollows but i think hes filled them in, looks nice.

Hadn't even looked at that Simran, I was focusing on the lack of insert detail :roll:
