Nope! You've missed one (or two).

Hmmm....

Well, the wheels were a bargain! And the debadging was free...
I'm happy, it's transformed the car!!

That looks awesome!

Can you pm me the details (rough costs!) of the wheels and side skirts - think I may have to scrap the idea of wrapping my car for the summer, and instead go for new wheels and trim smile

I will assume carbon fibre front splitter (if you have the rear diffuser). Respray or professional polish (clutching at straws but the car looks lighter).

Ok so this sounds crazy but I actually prefer the pre MY10 sills. Has anyone put the older style sills on say a My10 or MY11 ? I just think the car has a more classic shape with the original style sills etc.

Doesn't sound crazy to me *shrugs shoulders icon*

This might sound crazy though - I prefer the original wheels.

Really like the uncluttered, debadged rear with the new diffuser but have to say that the sills aren't my cup of tea and the wheels just dont do anything for me whatsoever, far too fussy. Much prefer the older style wheels.

Sorry, not being argumentative but I don't really think its fair to keep asking the cost on a forum. A PM might be better. For all we know he may have contacts and got a blinding deal. He has stated where some of the work was done.

For what its worth a main dealer quoted me close on £1,500 for one wheel exactly the same as the OP's last year on my V8V. Ridiculous! And I was quoted at the same time around £900 for painted and fitted sills from an Indie. This was considerably less than from a main dealer.

This was a year ago and prices may have changed.

Rick has some of the prices on his website, eg the sports side skirts

Or at least he did in Jan just before I sent my car up for it's annual service
