If you have seen this car in the flesh you would find that the quality of both the installation and the trim is quite badly executed and the quote of "not too much weight added" is laughable as the door trims weigh about the same as the doors now, not surprising realy when you see that they are made from nearly solid plywood!.

Prestige Audio in Harrow are equally as good

Lee J - I am interested in your comments about the quality of the work as I have seen a lot of the cars these guys have done and it has always been of incredible quality - They did an install in my current car and it is faultless.....

I am aiming for an April/May/June delivery!

I'm going for a Tuscan S in either Cascade Blue, Rosso Red or the Pearlescent paint.. The Smirnoff colour looks good though!

My boss is getting the new Lambo this year so head to head should be interesting!

Obviously everyone has their own opinion and it is all subjective, but from what I saw the fit and finish was not as good as the standard tuscan interior and the door trims in particular looked very angular and disjointed totally at odds whith the smooth flowing lines of the standard interior.
Also I think that it is a bit cheekey to say that you have made something as light as possible when it weighs
a good 4 kilos more than the original even without the speaker, in the case of the door trim.
