Vote for #3 here too, but if you do go for one of the others and those spotlights are going spare, colour me interested.

Will do mate

Shaping up well, I would be keen on the Coupe front and rear bumpers myself. Either way she is going to look great I reckon

Fingers crossed it will

Thought would post quick update, not done much but have been getting bits sorted in back ground, ordered adjustable rear tow and camber arms from a motorsport company so will be able to run upto -4 camber (not that i will) sent of for my 2018 MSA race licence, booked tickets to the Autosport show on the trade day so fingers crossed can get Quife diff, coilovers, brakes and cage deals done there but in mean time i gave it a wash and wax today so can get the cover on it as weather been so bad lately cant believe how well the paint came up

At last I've finally made the panel for the ZR steering rack Been a right pain, the front panel/front floor section between the 2 cars are COMPLETELY different might as well be doing the same job between a Rover and a Ford Anyway is what it is, I decided not to cut the original and ZR panels for 3 reasons those being the metal is very thin so be a nightmare to weld, car could be put back to original if ever sold it and finally the only bit that can be used from the 200 is the flange where it joins the panel. What I've done is to make it from Fibreglass resin. Glad to say all tho been a real headache the panel fits perfectly to car and around the steering rack so guess that's something all need to do tomorrow is go over it with body filler to get it nice and smooth then can get it on and seam sealed ready to paint the engine bay

i've heard a lot of people say the adjustable camber arms snap under track day use and these are guys with the tomcat race cars.

I'd just poly the originals, if it was me for track use.

Yeah always a risk, I done a fair bit of research and these are used by them on there Time Attack car and they assured me they have never had a problem so thought I try them. Must say they feel heavy which is a good sign.if there ok with will get the toe and lower arms to. Want to run around -2 on the rear I think as that's what had on the ZR and that got rid of all the loose rear end

they do look similar to the ones i have on my black coupe, but i would never risk track time on them, but its your car and a quick swap out if needed.

Just keep the OE ones with the car on track day
