Posted some pics of my car for the 1st time!


So I got this GB Shadow Edition last June on the 0% deal and low TAX etc. I had a Magnetic GT for two years beforehand with loads of mods, took some off, left some on, sold it and went for this one. I have always been a fanboy of the Grabber colour.


So this one has had:


SOLO Thunder CAT back exhaust 4.5" Pipes
Pedders Adjustable coilovers
Wheel Spacers 21mm rear
Wheel Spacers 25 front
Track Pack Spoiler gloss black
US Spec GT Lower Grill
Gloss black 5.0 wing emblems + Pony badges
2018/9 Clean Deck Lid - gloss black Pony
Black Rear Light Covers
Pro XENON kit – Fogs, side lights and interior all LED
Coplus sequential indicators
Rear LED 3way fog/reverse brake light
Roof wrapped gloss black
All lower trim/mirror covers sprayed gloss black
3/4 Carbon 20% Dark Smoke tints
Custom GT350 Steering wheel with GB centre stripe and stitching
Custom painted rear aftermarket diffuser
Honeycomb holes drilled out in upper and lower grille
Dry Air filter

Still in the garage to fit:
BMR Kit
Clutch spring
Rear subframe alignment

Cheers,

Stunning Rob, great choice of mods there!

Any pics of the custom steering wheel? I'm considering going down that route. Quite like the idea of a grey center stripe!

Are the FP mats better quality than the regular factory fitted ones ?
They’re not carpet at all but a tightly looped textile fibre.

New wheels fitted :like:

Luckily managed to source a set of the 2018 model forged alloys for an unbelievable price off eBay the other week, got them refinished in gloss black, coated in Gtechnic C5 & C2v3 and finally swapped tyres and fitted today.

Only downside atm is I’ve had to temporarily remove my spacers until I can get the car in to GT101 and get the wheel studs shortened by about 10mm (these wheels don’t have little ‘pockets’ like the original wheels have).

But other than that, well chuffed - all ready for a deep clean tomorrow (incl tyre black) :)

Next stop - drilled rotors and refinished callipers :like:

Benno

(I do know the centre caps aren’t lined up correctly - they were prior to tyre-fitters and never occurred to me that they would remove\refit them......)

Can't believe you've done all these mods before the clutch spring! It's the easiest and one of the best :crackup:

Yeah had it on the other one from the beginning, only done about 4,000 miles in this one. Will get round to doing it. :thumbsup:

Cheers Kristian,

I sent my original GT350 wheel to Jack at Royal Steering wheels and went with soft black leather/perforated on grips and made slightly thicker.
Great looking car and mods :rockon:

Especially that steering wheel...... May have to send mine off for some yellow goodness - wonder if he could knock up some gear stick/ handbrake boot to match :idea:

Benno

Defo. Couldn’t believe the difference this little mod made
On the flip having driven numerous, and now done a clutch spring (on a mates car) im pretty sure everyone has a different spring.... i pulled one out a mates ecoboost that had wait for it 8 coils... EIGHT! It was impossible to squeeze in.

That said, my list is huge, and i've not done it, nor do i feel the need to.

Decided to remove my front corner reflector black-outs (after 3 years they're in a pretty poor condition) which took 2 minutes. Then wasted 3 hours of my life getting all the f'ing sticky residue off! If only I was signed up to some sort of forum where I could have looked up or asked for advice in advance!!!
