Quick setback to proceedings.... The MSA want the rear spoiler removed and the front number plate changed..... 3 hours with a craft knife and a hacksaw blade and the spoiler is off
Just need to get a plate made up and we shall try again.

i know how you feel when i used to compete in off roading in my old range rover used to get hassle because the rear bumper caps wernt the right spec for that year (the earlier ones were slightly shorter ) and other lame things like that really does pee you off after putting all the hard work into building it when someones so petty about little details

No.... You need original wiring loom and interior carpets and headlining to say the least for GN.

Just spoke to my old man bout this. He said that he only once saw this happen and it was because out outer bodyshell was deemed to no longer be homoloigated. Look at Andy Burtons car tho. It doesnt seem very standard to me and he certainly has more that spoiler different than standard

Andy can't use his car after this year though so a spoiler is the least of his worries.
As for you Mac! don't you read the blue book?
46.3.5. Replica copies of manufacturers homologated
body parts/aerodynamic devices will not be accepted.
It is s**t that you have to remove it, but rules are rules
