That's nice and tidy, I like that! Perhaps window tints to give the floating roof effect?

Hi ,the total cost of the car was £19489,the cost of having the wheel arches and mirrors done was about £450.Dom,I can't have the windows done because believe it or not,it is a tuition car and I don't think the examiners would be too impressed plus my pupils would struggle to see on dark nights.Here is another photo.

To Ginger

Hi ginger,I have so far managed to keep the rims from being kerbed by having 225/45/17 Bridgestone Potenza's on,they have a 10mm kerbing rim and so far not one of my pupils has even scuffed the kerb with the tyres let alone the rims.
