S4 bonnet... no forward facing hump.
Thanks I love it.
In answer to comments.....
1. S2 with S3c/S4 front.
2. Mirrors are californians as fitted Tuscan racer's or R5 gordini's - still available.
3. Wheels are real pain to clean and will be changed soon.
Check out dads steed (aka The green Hornet)......

Hello Christian,
Tiv looking great! Like the mirrors, and also the 3-spoke steering wheel. Did you start with the 9-nut original? Thinking about swapping the wheel myself.
Which alloys were you thinking of replacing yours with?
My pride and joy is in the garage at the mo' - problem replacing the manifold gasket (bit of a bodge job before apparently).
See you at a Wilts meet sometime.

They are Vitaloni California Sport mirrors as fitted to Tuscan racers.
A very nice mirror with internally adjustable glass (moves inside the housing that is), so the mirror never has to be bent at an angle.
They look great on the S, I fitted them to mine but you will need to fill the hole in the door after removing the standard S mirrors!
I decided not to and fitted the Audi TT mirrors instead which were large enough to cover the holes.

I have the same wheels except they have been powder coated and clean up easily. Noticed you are missing one of the badges on the centre cap. These are available from Racing green for about £7 a piece if you are going to keep them for a while longer.
My S is black and think these wheels quite suit the image of the car. Some wheel's i think dress the car up to much and make it look like an atempt to make the car look younger.

Stuart,
The wheel was on the car when I bought it, they are fitted to lots of TVR and so quite common.
Hope all is well with your manifold gasket, see you soon.
(I still have the brake covers for you)
Matt,
Thanks for the advice on the wheel centre, I have been trying to find one without much luck. I will try racing green.
Thanks all,
