Cut splitter out and got some paint on it.. will need to sit it under traction bar so an airdam will need to be made to sit between lip and splitter.. some flexi plastic stuff should do it.. The mounts I will have to make and mount to outside of chassis legs.. as traction bar mounts on inside.

Started fitting my bonnet.. as its just a skin it needs 4 bonnet pins.. had to slide it forward slightly for clearence and some spacers will be fitted at edges to help it sit level.. I will be fitting a vent to it eventually.

Splitter and airdam mounted up today.. fabbed up some brackets from alloy and welded some mounts with captive nuts to the outside of the chassis legs as the inner side is used to mount the traction bar..

Final bits bought for this, still waiting on BWR fuel rail and AEM FPR, some fittings for fuel setup etc.

This turned up today tho, Rywire standalone milspec race harness, this allows me to just put power and ignition to this harness once all plugged in to ECU and the car will run.. it does not require any dash inputs or extra wiring like a normal swap harness.

It does have wires in to run a dash if you want to.. so I can run my Digidash easily off it..
