When I visited them last week they had said only 10 had been ordered between the two variants and most were from overseas. The bespoke splitter rather than the DTM style one looks a perfect fit for the car as does the grille and number plate surrounds in carbon fibre.

And most have gone for the race/bespoke splitter,I am in two minds at the mo...play safe and go DTM,or go with the race one which looks good on caldy s/black motor,but might look a bit much on sprint blue...I am swaying for the safe option (DTM) got to let them know soon as they are already doing my race version splitter at the mo.... :?

Think the DTM looks better than the race, I might even invest, the race version reminds me of the Cupra splitter thats on every VW/B5/Honda these days.

Bits of it I do, bits of it I don't. When the '3 is modified to the extent the '4 was, I doubt I will.
