Hmm, mine pokes out the back of the steel spacer insert but not out of the spacer
Your flamer looks sublime, never a fan of the colour till I say your avatar.
Still a few things to do like the rear lights and tints, the bodywork underneath could have been a bit less ripply (paint stripper attack which ate the plastic). Will probably replace a couple of panels, definitely the NS wing. It's difficult convincing some people that it isn't paint! The...
H&R 20mm with a 205/50/r15 tyres on an ET48.5 rim, I got scared and went a bit conservative. They might see the track now and again but this Clio is being mostly retired now that the turbo is in the garage. I wouldn't hesitate to run them on track though, if I was I reckon I would probably go...

Few bits coming together now, just went to pick the wheels up but they they'd just come out the oven so I'll grab them tomorrow. I'll say one thing though, they looking bloody amazing! Really dark glossy anthracite, google hyper black and you'll get some idea. Just really annoyed with myself...

Looks lively enough in this clip!
