Bad Stuff:

The VT bodykit is a complete joke and...
New clips ordered right at the start chief - should be here today :)
I see what you are saying about suspension - but do remember that a) the car has not turned a wheel on track yet and b) the budget.
I have no idea how it handles in its current form, so the first outing will be proving...
Cheers for the comments.
Stocked up on a few bits locally today whilst waiting for eBay purchases to arrive.
Spent £80 on new front discs and pads (mintex), brake fluid, engine oil, oil filter. Before anyone states quiche Lorraine or brimbo brakes, donny style prevents me from buying anything...
I did LOL at the filter mate - thought you'd like it. Even more so when I jacked it up (after parking it on some wood! damn this thing is lowz) and noticed the NSF wing body kit was completely held on by a cable tie pulling it underneath.

Switch to birdseye view to see it.
Anyway, enough accusations for today...
Just called him mate - no need to beating around the bush.
"All parts have sold" from a chap with an Asian accent who was rudely awaken by me with an early phone call.
I'd be ringing the police right about NOW.

Same mobile number was used on this advert in Bradford:

According to Google Cache.
Note how it is listed as WEST YORKSHIRE. Sheffield, however is in SOUTH YORKSHIRE.
Update. Same number...
Not much to create a thread about tbf. As Alex's mate (post above) is doing, the same will be done, albeit the breathing mods & suspension are done.
