    Looks ace james, adds a nice touch to the car. Steve I think you've found your calling with the painting and custom modding....

    I think the lighter colours would lend themselves well to a darker edged lip like the saloon spoiler

    The wing looks great james and the black lip does look good on white.

    I didn't realise they were custom - just so subtle & very nicely done too. I've had a lip spoiler for 3 years or more for the C70 but just felt it would spoil the clean lines.
