The skirts, spoiler and bumper cover were all painted and fitted by a local paint shop, A1 Spray Tech in Grantham, they did an excellent job. They did comment that the skirts took a bit of fettling and filling to make the fit just right, the bumper cover is OEM GT3 so that was just a bolt on.
I originally fitted 25mm spacers to the rear and 16mm at the front, the fronts were fine, but the rears stuck out to far, so I reduced them back to 16mm which is what you can see in the pics.

Hey Rob, looks really nice. well played!

Do you have you wheel & tyre sizes at all, I was think of running 15mm spacers up front but the back looks way to tight for 15's. I note you have 16's and they look kind of how i imagine the 15's will look which is a little too much for me (just my personal pref).

Was just looking to get a comparision before i ordered. I need mine just a touch further in at the rear.

I am a little concerned about the increased 'road rash' on the body work given the wider stance. How many miles have you done with the set-up and have you noticed this,
