The vents aren't practical, they're purely cosmetic. If I removed the wheel arch liners, then the vents would aid brake cooling. As it is, they just look pretty.

Very nice indeed I really like those vents decorative or not, all in what was the cost? If you don't mind me asking.

All-in for the wings, delivery, and fitting I’ve spent about £1,500. That included fitting an undertray/splitter and fixing various little paintwork problems at the same time.
I’m well aware that the bodyshop did me a massive favour at that price though. I’d estimate it should have been well over double that.

Looks great but as you say. They only look that good because the body shop took the time to do it right. Think you got a bargain their.

Again an excellent job and fantastic panel fit so congratulations to you for your patience and the bodyshop for their skill.

It always looks that good when I can be bothered to take the time and clean it!
Just shows how lazy I am most of the time …

It looks great. From some of the postings I think I might be right in saying that you should enjoy your exclusivity while you can. I will also thank you for being the TIPEC guinea pig for the product.
By the way, I had to explain to the wife that you didn't have a white stripe on the top of the off-side front wing, simply that the car was so shiny and it was a reflection of the sky. I've had to go and wash mine this morning, it's been sat unused for so long it has cobwebs on it - and I'm not joking.
