So I've got myself a 3008 on order I've decided to take the 306 off the road as it needs to much to pass its mot.
So the plan is to get her up and running again for FCS and enjoy honning it about at weekends! lol

So I've been lagging behind on Purdy! She just keeps getting filled with parts lol and with this bad weather I've not been able to do anything to her. But that's all about to change!
Picked a FMIC setup today off ash. There's more stuff in the bag lol it needs cleaning and I didn't want to get my hand dirty lol
Next plans going to vary slightly due to money etc. but let just say it'll still be one very unique car with alot more power and an mot lol

Just the chrome reflector bits. Not seen them switched on yet as I've got to swap bumpers over. Hopefully get it done at weekend.

Well I've started on the side skirts but not got around to rear bumper yet as I need a few things to make it extra crazy! lol
So side skirts started out as red and turned to black lol
As you can see they still need some more work but its a start
And as for the rear bumper well I've got some special planned for the gaps in it lol and its getting painted black

I'm making it my own with what I've got till I can afford to make it the car I've always dreamed of.
No point blending in with everyone else not my style.

So I've been busy again
Took of rear bumper to test fit my exhaust and bumper, Took a while! Lots of crap collected underneath it aswell!
And with new bumper and exhaust
Exhaust needs moving back and the cut out needs making slightly bigger so it fits nicely. Also finished the side skirts they just need fitting now.
Next job it to remove the rest of the existing system and fit the remainder of the SS system and fit the FMIC setup and fit the sticker bombed front bumper!

Since its been a nice day I thought I'd get cracking with all the stuff that needs painting!
My cyclones have been in a poor state as I never got round to finishing them so, I decided to go for a colour change!
I'm keeping the star bit black and the rest is going PINK!
Should have one fully finished tomorrow

They look mint!
I'm hoping to keep the star bit black so there's pink on the front of the rim aswell, but I'll have a look in the morning to see what it looks like as my masking it off was hard.

This is how my test alloy turned out, Decided I had to do the outer aswell as it looked crappy just doing the star black.
I'm so happy with how it looks! Just gotta get them perfect!

Quick update!
Will be ordering some pink paint so I can finish the alloys! And I purchased a boot build to help save time and money.
I will be modifying it to fit another sub woofer and fit in my 306 and probably paint it pink lol
Only cost me £40 and its well made, seems a shame to mess with it. But it'll be something even better!
