After my EPIC FAIL with the sigma ph1 project i decided to pack it in and look for an estate for practical reasons, Lee (spike) linked me to this little gem.
so yesterday 20/4/13 i went to view it and ended up bringing it home.
Like a kid on xmas i got up bright and early today 21/4/13 and cracked on with the front end
Black masks
splitter
60mm lowering springs
new drop links as they were nocking
replaced top mount bearings as they were distroyed
cut the bump stops in half to give abit more travel on the shock

It's 'onyx'. /spellingnazi
Gotta say though, its the first black one I've seen, estates are almost always meridians so come in the pearly colours. As yours is GLX, what's the difference?
Not sure if I like it or not though, I like black hatches but there's something odd with that, maybe the grey bits on the lights, or maybe the wheels. 
Anyway, makes a nice change to see something different....even if it is yet another hdi estate lol.
