Wow - what a change! Great. I like the fact you still have black wheel arches.2020 SDV6 D5 HSE, Carpathian Grey +

cheers John,
I umm'd and ahh'd about getting the colour coordinated wheel arches ... but I kind of prefer the contrasting arches (and handles). I'm not sure they actually work on the silver cars... they do however work on the darker colours.57 RRS TDV8

Looks good , lucky you covered up the reg plate in the 2nd photo The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us yet.

Looking
I've not fitted the rear skirt kit yet...
The instructions say minimum 15 degrees ambient temp so I'll leave it till the spring/summer.
I actually like the rear skirt I've left it brunel grey (like the centre section of the front bumper) because I'm not sure it's meant to be colour coordinated.57 RRS TDV8
