Apologies for lack of photo, but for anyone with Facebook, you might have seen a photoshop of a red XR2i with a Sierra RS Cosworth front end on it doing the rounds at the moment. Personally I like it because it's something different.
It has been "stanced" though, which ruins it slightly, but it's a great 'shop if nothing else!

Not sure how well the exhaust will go down wink but I like it. Unusual to see one of the classic japanese wheels on something like this and it suits it.

Exhaust is far from perfect, but everything else is great!

Golf looks lovely, not a fan of the stupid-font number plate though

That will be going back to standard. He has a few jobs to complete on it. It was originally a big bumper as it's an Edition One, so he is going to refit the big bumpers and original G60 badging, then full paint job.
Plenty of room in the bay for a turbo...

I've not seen this, but I'm not sure what the odds are of you seeing this - I'd be very interested if you could hunt it out again!

Nice.

I don't know if it's my age but find some BBS are just a bit too fussy and "bling". I put a set polished like these on a black E30 M3 and they just looked wrong. On paper they should work but they just looked a bit too much. Maybe darker centres would help? Anyway, all subjective I guess? smile

Don't think that's worked as its off a private group.

Nope, no joy unfortunately. Screencapping the picture without any of the public details visible might work though; it'd protect the group's privacy and still make visible one of the strangest sounding front-end swaps I've ever heard of. Thanks for going through the bother you did already, mind!

Awesome and very much properly modified. And it was just shy of 4 seconds a lap faster around the Silverstone than the btcc lap record yesterday!

As I'm feeling helpful today.

It is only a photoshop though, and in real life I doubt the dimensions would work.
