    Nice!!! Both the car and the final finish of course!
    How come you never do any i20's or protons, great walls... Lol

    On another note, what is with this panel alignment? Just above the number plate ?

    Thanks Guys. Yeah I like these cars. Not 100% sold on the interior though. Felt a little plain.

    Haha I did an i30 ages ago. It was a pre sale detail for someone who really didnt care about cars. It was soul-crushingly dull. As I have said to a few people, the best bit was when he paid me and drove it the hell out of my garage.

    Re panel alignment, which pic are you referring to?

    Love a bright blue car

    Are those aftermarket wheels or an option? I love the stock wheels that the RS250 comes with but hate the fact they are asymmetric. Drives me mad!

    Love the shape and look of these cars too! There's definitely something sexy about these Meganes and the Opel Astra. haha

    Nice work mate! I bet the owner was delighted with your work.

    Hmm might just be the angle of the photo. I didn't notice anything while I was working on it.

    They're Renault spec but I think they're a factory option. Def not aftermarket.

    They are the pov pac 18 inch rims @Reedy.
    I assume it didn't have the recaro seats @Caffeine Fiend
    Or you can option the car with them if you want a wheel that actually improves ride and handling.
    The black bumper bit also points towards it being a pov pack, though again, it can be optioned

    I've suggested this before for a few of Dan's other cars, but the answer is always no

    There can be a downside to having too much integrity!
