Thanked 801 Times in 547 PostsIt does look fabulous Chris, just needs the rear badging reinstated to finish it off
Have you considered getting a handbrake handle covered in alcantara too? Would finish the interior off nice imo, it looks a bit out of place with all that lovely alc'.

Thanked 30 Times in 21 PostsResult is nice, but I thought the DO88 RIP kit couldn't be installed with stock air duct (from rear of grill to airbox). Was I wrong? Originally Posted by S70T5Chris
