Anyone got any pics of their modified TVR's? Not Charisma Cerbera types but different alloys, Nitron Supension (lowered?) or any other bits and bobs?

I know there's not really a lot you can do to TVRs but after reading the Sprint article on the purple Cerbera with wing and 19s (Phwoar!) I wondered if anyone else had thougt the same?

Try to get some pictures of Tweetys Chim. He led us down from Pease Pottage to Brighton for the speed trials.

Seem to think that the colour of the car was Kawasaki Gold, might be wrong, but the wheels were horny and the way he had done the brakes looked good as well.

Can one really fit 19" alloys ? Does it require mods to the bodywork? What size tyres?

That any good. The super charger was a bugger to fit and the larger wheels meant I have to sacrifice the inner wheel arches, but otherwise the modification is going well.

Just need a Garfield for the window and I'm sorted....

replaced reflector ring with second ring of LEDs so have twin tail lights. I guess not legal and will need to put reflectors back for MOT. Clive it would help to mention the LED black wire is positive. Well pleased with lights, an excellent product. Cheers Al.

Jamie did that on the Carisma Cerbera after chroming the GRP pods. We sell double LEDs with the Elise kit. You are right, for your car it would only be legal if you stick reflectors somewhere else or swap them back. Black wire - I'll change the instructions but the LEDs only work wired up one way round anyway. If you'd asked I would've supplied the LEDs cheaper than at a motor factors (bet you paid about 22 pounds).

Clive!

Would you be doing any kind of Afterburner for the Tuscan?

Also when are you going to have a finished site? What's the status of it so far?
