Yer I don't mind a little lag, it's a good feeling when you feel a bit of kick . I would not mind few more horsies a but I might look into coil overs first and maybe come down on the skid pan with you guys and learn how to drive it properly

nice car mate! you should look into getting some foggy covers and also blackening your headlights. that would look mean as on your current scheme. an NA bonnet would look pretty unique as well

Hey Gk,

I just read through the whole build thread mate. Great looking car and great build.

Haha, Powdercoat the FMIC matte black, get yourself an NA bonnet and a spoiler-less boot lid in the same colour and you would have the option to go full stealth whenever you liked.

Nice build thread mate,

car looks the goods, but is crying for some foglight covers to complete the front end.

N/A bonnet and boot would make it look like a nice sleeper.

Good job
