Excellent, just one question, why S2000 seats and not Tuscan?

Excellent video your car looks great.
Were the seats an easy fit, and is the spoiler from another car or did you fabricate it. It really finishes of the front of the car.

are you still running your front end that low, I tried mine set like that but it had a huge negative impact on handling and grip so returned to normal?

I decided to put the s2000 seats in as i really like them, i had an s2000 before and they suit my size. I was tempted to go for the tuscan ones but there were none about at the time and i like being a little different. I had to fabricate bases for them to fit, im currently re fabriacting them as they sat just a little too high.

The spitter is a seat leon cupra r, my mate had one on the front of his rs4, so we decided to order one and have a play, i think it adds a little depth to the front without being too in your face.

Yes i used my car for about 6 months, yes i was running huge negative camber, and the wheels that were on there had the wrong offset so it tramlined quite a bit and was very twitchy at speed. I have orver christmas rebuilt my front end and polybushed it along with new alloys with a better offset so il see how it sits and maybe raise it a little.

The Wheels I had were Jap fitment wheel mania vortex I think but they were only 8J wide and I wanted a deeper rear alloy. They were the wrong offset, they were et32, which was ok on the front but the back scrubbed a little under hard acceleration.
I have now bought some new alloys, not sure if I am convinced yet but they are 9j rear 8j front and a much better offset. I might have to get them done an anthrecite colour. I will wait until i have the car back together and it is sat properly before i decide. Here are the new ones.

I do like the splitter, too. Did it fit without serious modifications?

You can get the splitter for about 40 squid.....that dont seem a bad price.Mine seems very low on the front end as it is,how much does it hang down bud or is there no height loss

It does hang a bit lower but because it sits back a little from the front it doesnt really catch, and I do run mine very low. On the plus side tho, if it does ever catch at least I know it's not my paintwork

Really like that splitter. Is it a straight forward fit? Cars going in for bonnet vents and quad headlight updates so would love to add some extra front downforce. Let me know about fitting issues please and I'm buying one. Top video!

No real fitting issues, more just being patient and getting it centered. The Splitter needs a couple of the center mount trimming but thats about it.
