Hi, Thought id try one of these but might be a while until you start seeing results cos I use my car all the time and don't realy have much spare time to modify my car very much, although will make changed every now and then! :)

Here's my car as it is atm!
I dont have any pictures of it from new, and since then I had a few dicks drive into me denting my car in various places :(

Will update you on any changes!

So far since I've had it, I replaced the tacky black bumpers with some colour coded oned which I picked up fromt he scrap yard!

Ive also replaced the red rear clusters withsome clear blue lights which I brought off ebay for £30! I dint realy like the red ones so they had to go!

With the interior, Ive got a stereo which I can use with my ipod, and got some seat covers as my original seats are a mank tartin style! Urghh!!! lol

looks good altho you need wider wheels

[Dbain87]

Yeah I know I do! lol
Im stil debating about what wheels to get for it! I dont have much of a choice though cos Unfortunatly I didnt realise when I brought the car that its a three stud !!!!!!!! Damit!!

***And can anyone HELP me... with 15" alloys, do they rub alot when you turn the steering on full lock, or can a simple set of spacers prevent this completely?? and what are 15" wheels like when it comes to having a full car of people?? Will they catch on the arches???****

But anyway..........Things I hope to do.......:


~Get some wheels (read above section if u havent)
~Fit an exhaust (nothing too big, just a nice and chherful one ;))
~Fit a boot build with sub and amp
~Try get rid of dented parts, or replace dented parts with new panels
~Mesh on front bumper... And over fog lamp holes (what you reckon)
~Gear stick.. pedals.. handbrake (only a possibility)
~colour code wingmirrors or even get some M3 ones :D

erm.... might think of some more later

[Dbain87]

A bit more progress......


Just bought some spray so I can do my windmirrors, will hopefully get these done at the weekend or might try during the week! :)
Will post pictures later when its done
