Nah dont at all mate, boss Kit Â£40 quid plus P&P from Venom, And the wheel was from Ebay, altho the company also have a website, so i saved Â£20 inc P&P on the wheel, as the cheapest you can get a Brand new Team wheel is Â£110

But also there is deals out there that you can get the both Boss kit and wheel for a better price, Just make sure you get the Airbag Bos kit lol. Also if you do i'll do a DIY as getting the orig airbag of is a cock, Unless you know the way the clips pop. And also you need a part of the OE steering wheel!

Car looks well hard

Have you had any trouble with those plates? Just got a set myself. Pressed but with uk fonts etc. Do the Edinburgh police pick up on it?
