Just to give another perspective on the blacked out look... mine came with black optics OEM, however I changed the mirrors and front splitter to carbon, and the front badge to black plastic.

Trups has also worked his magic on the headlights, so all that was left to do was haul it up to the Highlands for a week ;-)

Have to say that since I've gone down the all blacked out route lots more cars get out of my way or give it a wide berth when they see it

Defo black out the lights if everything is dark, well worth it. Mine will be full black out, no chrome I hope.

Am obviously going to have to get along to some of the meets to pick up tips etc. The work some of you guys put into your cars is outrageous! Good effort.

Think the airbag is standard but after seen rs6r wheel with the leather I may go back to the person David had it redone to get the airbag done but I'd need to see more examples as I'd want the stitching to be tight around it with ZERO sag. No uk company has managed to achieve that

Trups, mate it needs to be said, no doubt your work is the best I've seen so far and can't wait for your latest mod. Send me some pics as soon as you do.

Sorry to take this slightly off topic Stevo but for the guys who've had this done in the SE/Kent kind of area, which guys did you use please as I'd much rather go with someone who's been recommended.

Thanks
