Think its about time that i done one of these...

Bought my car back in 2009 completely standard, dont have any pics of it thought as my parents bought me some new wheels the same day, here they are... Embarassed Laughing

 


I actually thought my car look wicked back then! looks like a tank! Shocking ha.

Then came the lenso's, coilovers and lowered the rear...

 


Then i decided i didnt like silver anymore and the work began...

 

 


Then i had my baby back!..

 

 

 

 

 

 


The first time i saw the car in purple i hated it, Not the colour i wanted at all, but now i really like it! It has grown on me loads.

Still quite alot to do in the pipeline but i wont reveal that on here Wink

Comments and criticism welcome Very Happy

Jaykerz.

Colour is not bad, did you do it yourself by anychance?

As im not to keen on the side strips, need to be redone IMO (possibley with ariel and bonnet, but im being a snob like that Embarassed )

I done the prep work myself, got it wrapped by some matey in slough. Yeah i know what you mean about it all, im a perfectionist and them parts annoy me! but all the body work looked fine/felt smooth untill it was wrapped and it showed every imperfection Sad

Ken, new lights are on the to do list and im not sure how it is coilies are all the way down and helpers out and god knows what on the back.

I was parked next you at FCS. My GF said that it's great, but needs different rear lights. I'm inclined to agree Very Happy

Haha spill the beans! I will be coming to you soon for some ideas on an ice install though addaz Wink

Was £1000 Callum, i could have got it sprayed for that by a freind who owns a body shop but i thought id give the wrapping a go. Maybe regretting it now though?
