I'm divided on a few bits and pieces but it's certainly nice to see a new crowd involved with the SW20. They are amazing cars!

Yh I get that all the time I think it's mainly because it's far from the normal sw20 so for most it's a bit too in your face maybe and I get what u mean seeing quite a few young people driving them now nice that I'm seeing people my age keeping them alive and kicking =)

Re did the black inspection panels and the engine cover black as they had a bit of overspray on them and looked a little tired, came out quite nice I think

Dusty and dull

So I stripped it down and re did the red in candy red to match the rest of the car

I then re polished the inlet manifold which had gone dull
