Looking good chris.
But I am seriously wondering about the legality of cannards and front splitters, they would slice your legs off even at low speeds and I dont think the Police would take a lenient view if they see them.
One reason I have not fitted carbon splitters to the front of my GT4, Booost gave me some but I would hate to think that if I collided with a pedestrian I would chop their legs off or cause serious harm.
Not passing judgement mate, Just my opinion

Must agree with Phil01 here sorry.

However some other aspects of what you have done I like a lot.

Definitely tint the rear lights black, will fit in so well with the rest of the car.
