Neil's Coupe

Thanks for all the kind words!

Yep, the front lip is an ebay special, but I figured it would tide me over till I got my hands on an M front.

But for now, time to find a nice set of wheels.
 
Is this the one ?

NeilP, lovely motor mate - as already been said. I especially love the audiophile mods! reminds me of my builds back in the day but we didnt have AirPay! awsome work really impressed with this thread. :thumbsup: and the car of course!
 
With the splitter on, front looks much more aggressive (and cool) than M std front, imo. You sure you will still be after one now that you have reach such an individual look? :o
Anyway, time to update you signature pic! :thumbsup:
 
DPG, yup that's the ticket.

Fast3000, Thank you! Yep, airplay is the way of the future! :thumbsup:

Zeddicus, I'm not so entirely fussed about going for an individual look, I just want a flat race splitter like this (and the big wing would be a nice touch too!):

Neil for the flat splitter you're better off making it

Just make a metal version from aluminium, mould it then lay carbon over it.

Seriously should take you a few days once you make the template

Yeah I plan to...but for now I'm happy with the current setup. Just going to enjoy the car for now and find some wheels/other things to do over the winter.
 
Well, it seems these cars can actually be used for driving.

So I did just that today and ventured into London. Only issue was I decided to take pictures after feeding my face...probably not the best idea I've ever had!

Love the Claws. No issues to speak of? rubbing etc? I have no idea on the weight of those so I guess you've not seen any negative effects in unsprung? ( Always thought they may be heavy ) lovely look though dude :thumbsup:

Not had any rubbing (but then again it's not very low)

The wheels however, are pretty heavy.
