Hey Richie, I actually bought it already dipped from an RS owner up here. Not sure how much the process was to get done tbh but I paid £40 for the trim.

Are you on FB? There's a couple of local group pages on there that meet quite regularly. Keep your eye on here as well..

The quality of the dip is amazing as well, I'm tempted to get a few other bits done.

Clutch, flywheel done at the weekend.. Thanks again to Gary (Boombastik) and his cousin for blitzing the job in only a few hours! While the car was up on the ramp I took the liberty of fitting an H&R ARB kit. Gearbox oil was also done.

Aye you boys were fairly flying!
Great to have a fully functional clutch again. Amazing the difference, just shows how used to the slipping I was. The ARB's have really tightened everything up as well. It's like a new car.
Looking forward to our road trip the morn.. :thumbs:

Just re-furbed my Ispiri's in Titanium, a fine change from black I thought.

That does look good. Suits it in both black and titanium. Sprint and black optics work well together. OE DTM Carbon splitter too. 👌

Man, that looks amazing. I am not usually a fan of aftermarket wheels but that looks sensational, love the colour too.
