Try an e-mail to greengauges - I got an answer the next day. They were very helpful after that.

Very smart. Like the colour coding, especially the exhaust. What have you used for the stone guards?

Must be anoying as nearly a pass, but only two items to concentrate on.

On the road soon!!!

Cheers guys.
Viper - side covers are fibreglass. Done on the car with plently of cling film and a fair bit of filler and rubbing smooth - do the job though.
Lightning - stone guards are only boy racer stick on c/f film. Will do for now!
Nearly failed on the steering rack as the SVA guy said the mountings needed a cross brace as they flex when cornering and are badly designed......

No re-test date yet.
Need to speak to greengauges and get my emissions sorted. Trying not to insure the car for as long as possible so makes it awkward to sort them out.
Hopefully late next week......
We shall see....
Pat...
VIPER - you need to weld a bar or plate between the mounts, unless you come up with a real solution like your 'bones!
