I like the stripes but I think the white bits on the bumper and at the front should also receive the treatment - it looks slightly odd to me.

The stripes on the bonnet and boot do not really do it for me. However I do like the way they disappear into the radiator air inlet, as if the car is eating them. I would be tempted to leave these on and on the rear do the rear bumper and skirt so it looks like to stripes go through the car. Of course I could be out on a limb here.

Wow what a transformation, you must be chuffed. Hoping to get mine looking that good eventually but I've a lot of work to do. I have to say though I'm really enjoying it too
Also I like the stripes, very muscle car ish.

I like them but I agree, they should go down the boot and rear bumper too, and the little bit between the bootlid and the hood

Big difference, the exhausts look very nice. I quite like the stripes..but I'm not a big fan of black wheels.
Lovely white Wedge though!

Well I thought I'd close off this thread with my RR results, a healthy 190.2 BHP and torque just shy of the 200 mark

Must admit, when I first saw the pics I thought, oh dear what has he done, but in the flesh at BBWF it started to grow on me. The other guys are right, I think the stripes need to Continue down the back end over the bumper.
However I have to be honest and say it's not my taste. I think the timing is unfortunate, as there are lots of buy racers out there doing similar to their 1.1 1995 Corsa's !!
Having said all that, an excellent referb, well done.
