Blimey, so THAT's what it looks and sounds like...
So on the way back home with kids on scooters this afternoon. Knew wife was off out but expected she'd take her car as weather gorgeous.
Anyway, walking along and hear something fruity. A few seconds later my car appears with wife at wheel. Blimey it doesn't half look menacing with splitter, lowered and wheels filling arches and actually first time I've really noticed the LED's difference. Chuckled at pops as it slowed for junction - someone's not driving in efficient. Now I know what others are seeing from the outside - doesn't half look good (okay, a bit biased!)

Sounds great guy. You need to get the drone out again, record some remote footage and sounds.

Here you go. I take the actual figures with a bit of dose of salt but there's no questioning the increase.

I thought they were great. John and Mike really seem to know their stuff and obviously having run their own F80, they've had plenty of time to refine things. Was hugely impressed with their attitude, not to get the ultimate, but to keep things realistic for longetivity. Couldn't recommend them more.

Sorry Teaspoon, missed this
So the primary cats have been taken off and Paul modded the central silencer and back box. Rear arches amazingly clear fine (bit tardis like under the arches). I'd happily make the rear higher but I can't - it's as close to top of the thread as possible. So that's as high as it will go!!

Show boating all well and good but in all honesty 3rd takes you from 40 odd to 3 figures so damn quick now you don't really need to use 2nd. Would be nice if MDM gave you just a little bit more to play with - working on that.
