I was leaning towards the Prova wheel, but I am interested to see how the DAMD one goes.
Please provide your opinion of it once installed.

A few updated pics, luckily I dont take photo's for a living

I'll have to get around to painting the rear calipers soon, or even better, source some rear brembo's.

Nice and understated there Ben. Looks great. It is getting hard to find something other than black that still looks classy and not ricey.

Is that a real S204? They are awesome cars. I've got an 04 Spec C here at the moment and it goes like shit off a chrome shovel. It's going to be a shame to see it go and be turned into a rally car...well for me not whoever it's going to.

Mad nice.
Out of curiosity, did you paint the pillars black or do they come that way?
I got this plan. It's called 'Save Ass'. And the way it works is this - I slip outta one of these windows and I run like a bastard!

The pillars are black from factory, wrapped I think.

Not s204, although obviously that was the look I was after. Unfortunately it was a fake, from the rotas to the front lip.

Just had my HKS dump pipe installed followed by a tune revision from Matt. Definite improvment in responsiveness, boost is coming on around 600rpm earlier. Slightly louder induction but overall no notable noise increase, which is what I was after.
