Photoshopped pop up lights look really good. Ferrari 355 good.

I like the look of this bumper. With more purposeful fog lights it would make the car look a little like the TWR XJ220S.
Sorry my mind keeps straying from "restoration" to "modification".

Re: 16V Turbo project
Copied and pasted the quote here so we don't get cross-threaded.
Not exactly. Decent exhaust to replace the crusty one. Replace the pod filter with something decent that actually makes a difference/improvement. Dual core all aluminum intercooler and better pipework. Same for the radiator and water pump/pipes. Maybe a fresh turbo with a little more boost but the main thing will be brakes, suspension, wheels and tyres. Basically anything mechanical so I don't have to faff about with rolling roads and laptops.
Reversible modifications?

The Coupe' has just been dealt a death blow.
M.O.T 24th January 2007 to 2008 75694
M.O.T fail 2014 75687
Clockers the film? Seminal work by Spike Lee and one of the best from 1995
Clockers the Coupe'? :bang:
A full on restoration with a dodgy history would be futile.

No service book, but a stack of receipts and all the M.O.T's. Including someone paid £6,795 in 2004 with a £200 part exchange for an 80,000 mile Vauxhall Nova.

Lol! Only a slight upgrade then!
I hope you don't mind, but I put the reg plate on the mot history website, and it only seems to have changed by a couple of miles per year, so it could just be a faulty odometer?
