nice car, but i think a SIr spoiler will match better witch the rest of the car, just in my opinion, where did you get the brackets ??

very nice EK. BUT, there's something about it, esp in the side shot..its just too plain looking. & i'm not feeling the EK9 wing w the brackets. its too aggressive & doesnt flow w the rest of the car. a Spoon wing wouldve been better. dont get me wrong, i like the car, but it doesnt flow. theres something missing

Looks really good but the holes where the front plate used to be need sorting, it's messy and ruins the front end.

What's all this Ashura thing about? Is it named after the Muslim festival?

My mate got me the brackets.

I would love to run a spoon front lip, but my car is daily driven and there is speed bumps right outside my house so the lip woulnt last a day.

Thinkin maybe canards at the front.

Cheers for comments

Those EK Squad guys are a tight nit group. You have to know the secret hand shake just to post in one of their threads. Good luck man!

Looking good man, not really a fan of the wing. As said, ruins an otherwise simple and flowing car IMO..

Did you go 55s on the tyres?

They are 15/195/50. The wheels are 6 and a half wide so the tyres sit a bit chunkier on the rims.

The wing needs to be seen in the flesh to really do it justice.

I will get better pics up soon when i get time.
