better isn't it

subtle and clean is better than wide and wobbley

looks loads better mate,

nice one,

looks nice m8 but now u should get some flat caps 4 them wheels

BIG RESPECT going from smooth vr bumpers and hitting the textured vibe man, nice work. Not really feelin the spoiler but hey, it aint finished yet i know... nice work manzi

Looks alot better mate, nice one. What are you plans with the spoiler?

have thought about flat caps but unsure whether they'll look better or not.

spoiler is a fully functional rado wing.

its not permanently up as it looks
just needs bit or work to stop it scratching paint.

Thats a cool idea man /\ sweet
I like how your car works with the nut centre caps actually.. its got a bit more of its own identity if that makes any sense?!
