Well after deliberating for a\ week or so I have taken the plunge and bought a rather special body kit for Meg...

It is the original SP Performance kit from their display car in 1998. Designed by Krafthause it is quite lovely. I am goign to marry it up to Meg's TF front end and a new TF rear bumper, which I think will just give it a meaner look. So I will have a Cheetah rear bumper for sale soon as I don't want to use it. The car is now in a sorry state and I am just glad I can rescue at least part of it.

Question is should I get the kit done in the same colour as Meg (nightfire 2) or have it contrasting as above? Below is a colour coded version and a contrast version:

I am hopefully collecting it this weekend!

Good luck with it! I vote for colour coded.

Was leaning towards that too David! I think all in Nightfire would be nice - same as the one Top Gear tested back in 1998 - without the extra power! lol

Colour coded. The contrasting one looks like an MGF version of the Rover Streetwise.

I'm suprised you need to ask, contrast looks unfinished!

Well I thought I'd see a consensus as the original car was contrasting - then they released them colour coded after that. Mind you at £30k (ISH) I don't think very many were made at all.

Colour coded gets my vote

On a side note - how would I do moulds of the kit in case I want to make any copies?

Would you be infringing anybody's rights by doing that, Adam?
If not, talk to Jon (Rough Luck)

Coded gets my vote too.. Cant wait to see this one finished

Another vote for coded here unless you go black for a Dennis the Menace look

Actually, that might work. Any body good at photoshopping?
