1.8 china blue xs

So this is how the car looked in the advert online and the day I got her

The first thing I did was fit a deep dish omp suede steering wheel

I then fitted an omp upper strut brace

I then bought a 3.5" back box and had to cut and weld the piping to make it fit, but it's loud as hell now!!

I removed the badges from the boot

I then bought some pretty battered nimrod alloys

I then decided to paint my centre console and side vents white!

I then bought some 20mm wheel spacers, and with too many people in the car my wheels now rub Sad

Then the old girl reached 120000 miles

I then had my nimrods painted in anthracite grey, centre caps will be in soon

This is how they look on the car

I've since put a crappy aftermarket air filter on it, using my old metro air intake pipe

List of things still to do;

Get her lowered, suggestions on how much to lower it by please

Paint the spoiler anthracite

Paint brake calipers china blue(for subtlety)

Paint front badge anthracite

De-badge the boot

Front splitter

Possibly make a decat

Any suggestions on what to/not to do are much appreciated
