Looks nice, need to do something about the rear wiper bung though!
Nice RS Turbo! Series 2 are the best shape! What power is it running? |
Its not a RST its a XR3i with the kit on it.
It looks tidy mate I would return it to standard XR3i

so was off for 2 weeks hence why i havent been on here much.
didnt realise so much could happen in two weeks! and cost so much!
ill start with the good!
i got my door mirrors back early fitted them and i am chuffed with how much they make the car look cleaner and fresher!
i also took howeys advice and removed the door pilliar sticker, was so easy and again set the detial of the car off nicely! only problem was from where i had a new door fitted and sprayed the bodyshop stuck the sticker on with fresh paint makin it rather difficult to get the sticky residue off !
what you think?
before
during
after
also a 50/50 of my center console 
i also gave it a good clean and clay with all this stuff!!!
my new polisher! chicago phnuematic CP8210 retails at £350!!!
after claying!
we also got another addition! a 1.6 glxi skoda felicia ( it was given i did not spend a penny on it! lol) its in a right state but will make it a lil project to fix and sell!
its same colour as this one!
now for the bad! 
my lovely 6 month old puppy jack russel turned out to be not very well. costing me a fiar bit and putting the purchase of my coils on hold!
here is russel
he had a dislocated leg and needed major surgery! he now has to spend 4 weeks in a cage to let it heal!
his wound!
and the main CR*P thing is a stupid girl in her red KA decided to turn a corner whilst looking the other way!
the result is as below which is also crap s my car wont be in for fixing until 8th sept! so i will have this mess for TRAX! really wanted to cry!
so next step is to get car repair finally purchase my coils! get bonnet vent resprayed fly eye the lights when the kit comes after trax and buy some alloys of DSG!
lol
comments welcome
o and so you can put a face to the name a pict of me (right as i know some1 will comment) my missus left and our lil boy archie in center!
