Love THESE pics speedyK! Driven not polished

I've got the same wheels on my Elise (in shiny silver ), but working on "powdercoating" them as we speak (new pads + back to back to back track days)

Exige From Outer Space!

This one made me smile. The car matches the glass on a game I have from the '70s. Now if it were just Krypton Green...

I like the pictures; they tell you something about the aerodynamics of the car.

Yes, it was quite interesting to observe the flow lines over the whole of the bodywork. I studied it in detail back in the comfort of my garage – even down to the disruption caused by my having the driver's window down by a few centimeters!

Mrhatmostly, is that the before and after effect on the S1?
I like it!!
I've been thinking of a custom "track" paint job for my S1. Maybe next time I respay I'll go a little wild with the color scheme.
