Thanks for delivering mine Craig, I've got it fitted this afternoon :).

It fitted on fairly easily, I just had to file a couple of the holes a bit to give a little more clearance where the studs were a bit tight, and push a couple of plastic clips back through the slam panel a bit, but it was nothing major.

Very pleased with it :D I think it looks almost factory fit in the black fibreglass finish :nod:

Anyway, here's a quick pic I took to show it off :D

Looking good mate :) thanks for posting the pic too!

Out of interest, which holes needed the work? Just for future reference :)

The ones where the carbon canister fits were a tiny bit tight against the side of the studs, and the bonnet release lever was just touching the back of the hole. The plastic clips I had to push in are about 30mm outwards of the clips that hold the bonnet prop, but on the upright part of the slam panel. They were black ones holding the same wiring that the 2 clips in the middle also holds, so it's not going anywhere.

I wouldn't worry about it Craig, all of our cars aren't going to be exactly the same, and it might have been a perfect fit on another one. It was only a minimal bit of adjustment to get it to go on without dragging down the side of the studs.

I doubt that anybody would buy a fireglass/carbon product and expect it to be an exact fit straight off without a little work :).

This group buy will close on Friday 5th November so if you want one, let me kow before then. All panels in the GB should be sent by the end of November.


They will be available after the GB at a slightly higher price.

Pic of mine fitted. Craig kindly let me jump the queue so I hope no one doesn’t mind. I had a photo shoot with Japanese Performance magazine so I wanted it on for that, which I did, so thanks Craig. (will give you a plug in the write up!)

On Monday (tomorrow) the following panels are being delivered..

Benne, sniffy, S15RKM, AlanS15


And the following panels being collected..

I had to make some changes to the original plan but everybody else should get their panel this month.

Edit: sorry S15RKM - I forgot that your panel is still at the trimmers. It will be Friday when yours is sent. Sorry about that mate.

Sorry, only just saw this post. The holes are defiantly in the right place mate. They have all been cut exactly the same and are identical to the original. What front bumper do you have?

What do you mean by twisted too? Nobody else has had any of these problems so far. If you want a panel without the front 3 holes in (so you can cut them yourself in the right place) then you can send me your panel back and I'll send you another without the holes.

There MAY be a couple more too but it will depend if I can get the the trimmers before work.
