looks excellent. I do wonder once you drive the car if you may revert to the aeroscreen that Jeremy came up with, especially the side extensions. This is the first J15 I've seen with the modern take (lots of carbon and arch extensions) looks nice.

Re the aeroscreen......I previously had a westfield, and enjoyed the car much more after fitting an aerscreen.......I drove it without any screen to IVA and it was ok

Welcome aboard. Good to see a J15 that isn't red.

I think they look great in red, and as JP's demo car was red, it's normally that colour that most want......After he mine popped our out of the mold, JP said he liked the colour, and promptly build his second Vectis in the same Blue
I was going to say there will probably be an influx of blue ones coming along, but as much as I have searched, and can't find any new J15 or Vectis build diaries

We hadn't had any completed/registered cars at Stoneleigh until three turned up at once, last year... all red.
The black JPS one that ChesterSportsCars built looked good, though I'd have stuck with just the gold stripes and not the (free) advertising logo'.

Ahh yes, that black one did look good. If I'm being honest, I did ask JP for a gulf racing blue colour, but he wouldn't do one using that gel coat due to inconsistancies in the past. My plan was always to do the gulf thing...but when I put the french blue body work on, it just wasn't quite right for the orange gulf stripes.
