few new mods done to the car.
before spacers:
after 25mm spacers:
stretched tyres:
side shot with the wheels spaced out:
overall shot of how the car looks atm (please excuse the dirt on the car, not been washed in a week!) :
next on the list is fitting my fk coilovers when they arrive and refurbing alloys again as they're looking a bit tierd around the rims.
cheers for looking, all comments good and bad welcome.

Car always looks a million times better once the wheels are spaced out onto the arches, otherwise the wheels just look swamped in them.

wont cost me £200.... am a paint sprayer by trade so will do them in a spare 5mins at work lol. there's only 3 minor scuffs on them so will have them sorted in minutes.... smoothing the bonnet a bit more i'm unsure on.... think it can look great, but the vent is there for a reason as are the washers, this car has still gotta be my daily driver.

alright for some 
yerh i totaly understand! if its your dail driver, i think it would look a little sweeter is u were to smooth the recess even so if it is just that! washer could be smoothed out and just moved to the lip underneath the bonnet
haha but yerh nice car man big fan of it i love subtle mods! thats what im doing on my car now.
can i be cheeky and ask how much you paided for 25mm spacers? and are they any brand?
