posted some pics on the old site, not much changes have added the spacers and changed the rear lights, plus carbon fibre window pillar set.

thinking the i might push the fronts in a little but i did go stagered 25mm front 30mm rear, i reckon i should have gone 20mm front, but the arches are still over hang the wheels.

to be fair i looked at all the ones on ebay and went for the best looking, came from far east sellers, real carbon fibre, bit fiddly sticking on but all good in the end. proper 10peice as well.

i was quite lucky, as it is a full hartge bodykit and wheels, front bumper sideskirts and rear bumper, had to lose the sidesteps. the car is a 2002 pre-facelift 3.0d sport. i think the front is nice and gives a more aggressive look never liked the standard front and even more so with the facelifts, i reckon the prefacelift looks a bit more old school. the kit is very expensive but i got second hand and got beemabuild in west brom to prep and fit the kit which i think he did a really good job at. the paintwork not the best, would like paint correction in the future and another wheel refurb.

Loving those tail lights!
How much were they and were from?

I want to get smoked ones but can't justify spending alot on them.

i think they were from u.s, i sold my clear rear lights and used the money from that. they were about 150, only thing i dont like is the part of the lense directly behind the main lights are clear and not sort of opaque with lines, so u can clearly see the bulbs and appear brighter than standard. ive seen other rear lights withought this problem but they were seriously expensive.

The front bumper and stuck-on rear spoiler look awful.

IMO.
