Cheers Tommy :)

Well im gonna get my Front/Rear inside pillar covers and headlining done in the same as the Alcantara on my seats and door cards, so it will all be matching as hate the greyish roof lining, marks to easy for my liking. as for the dash ill just get the real carbon inserts. and also want my steering wheel re-trimmed with sued and painted black like the IX :D

sounds epic, keep reading threads like this one and its feeding me ideas for when I eventually get mine!! your interior is a well wanted part on this website it seems :D

Well we all know that i seriousely need a splitter to kinda finish off my front end.............. so iv sorted a IX FQ360 RalliArt item, that will be delivered end of the month :D

AND iv also managed to get myself a IX HKS Superdragger and a Battery Relocation Kit. :D :D

Ill get home fit them and will be ready...... after i get the front seat belt stalks, as it came apparent that the person i got my seats off has used them with his new BRIDE seats. :razz:

The Splitter had a slight crack in the lacquer, so it was Professionally repaired and sprayed Grey.

I Think i can officially say that my Evo is now a 8.5 :whistling::whistling::awesome:

No that's spark plugs that get changed every service :)

The filter came off my car last year, as rosie gave me a new one she no longer wanted, and i bought a new pump cause someone told me to change it every two yrs, so a couple of months ago I bought a new one :)

Service isn't due yet :razz:
