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

Very nice
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

I think this looks great
I even like the color!
Damned, i feel a project coming up. This Break idea is spinning in my head for the last 2 years
Don't like the backside....think that can be done better though.....
