It looks far better in direct sunlight, these pics dont really do the orange justice

Ok well my inspiration, came from the Gulf Racing McLaren F1

Looks great Mark

I got the stripes on my roof changed for a better match to the lightning blue

Also got to clean the car today

The curves of the roof make the stripes look off ol: But I know they arent because we measured them 3 or 4 times :wh:

Also note the JCW Side Scuttles

Jeez Mark how do you keep it so clean I just can't seem to be able to keep the shine on mine , that said you have motivated me to do a spring clean soon . some pics then , no major mods except removing the bonnet stripes and fitting the 18" Rota Subzeros with Michelin Pilot Sport tyres and the JCW Brembo brakes , I was thinking of the headlight mod as I have orange lights as well , did you have any problems with the headlight mod

Headlight mod interests me too!! Stunning car Mark!

[Sportspack-Mark]

Thanks folks

ger, do you have xenons? i dont know if it can be easily done with them! Dont know anyone thats done them with the xenons.

I had just polished and waxed the car in that pic It gets a weekly wash and thats it

[irlmin]

Yes Mark , Bi-Xenons , I was thinking of the black headlamps as in the MC50 or the Camden etc , was planning to keep the Clubman for a while yet BUT I really like the Hampton ltd edition so must do some speccing / pricing .
