Its still a nice looking car though and the calipers look good to, IMO just needs a spoiler. The lights are from the later style C70 cant remember the price of them, I think I'm still due my dad for them ha ha. There's pics in my photo album of them.

Yeah there exact same. I get the same with the C70 brakes there bigger than the ones on the R and thats what people look at first lol.
keep up the good mods

The new brakes do look the part, and wheels of course. Are they the 312mm discs? Might seem a stupid question but I have never upgraded brakes how easy is it? I assume other than new caliper carrier and caliper you just have to swap brake lines and re-bleed.
