Cheers pal. your plans sound sweet!

Abit of progress, lamin-x yellow on the fog lights, finaly wired the oil temp gauge up so now both gauges are working and now lowered as much as possible on the front with helpers in to match the rear and level the car out abit. Will get some pics up tomorrow! Plans next are hopefully whiteline RARB, re-map, and with a hefty bit of saving turbo back milltek

As promised!











That is all!

liking the progress mate! car looks sweet!
the whiteline RARB you will love totally changed my car soon as I got it fitted and get it polybushed all round too (can't remember if you have uprated bushes or not)

Yo dude, think you need some sort of front spoiler and to move your plate back to the oem possition mate. Will look amazing then mate... Cableties are just a no no lol....

i cant figure out how that numberplate is on.. is that string?
lovin the mods, keep it up!

No point in smoothing to put the plate back!! Think I'm going to get a 3/4 plate or an import one and find a nicer place but for now, cableties FTW!

Nope as said they're cableties! Haha

Looks cool man!

Not a huge fan of the numberplate placement though.

I'd whack it on the side, similiar to this:


Looks like a temporary position that way, so doesn't interrupt the lines of the car you're trying to create with the new smooth front.

That smoothing looks horrible compared to Harneys, it looks as though it flexes in

IIRC it was a leather material front.

Yeh that's quite a good placement! Like I said, going to get a smaller plate and mess about to find a good place

Cheers pal! Haha in a round about way complementing the smoothing!

Its a blog we started a while ago now and forgot about it to be honest, but, were getting it up and running again with a new look and a few updates. have a look and see what you think.

Right number plate has been removed and relegated to the window. miles better! haha. but im now thinking im unsure on the front end
Im begining to think matte black might be the way to go with the grill surround as it mite soften the apperance and make it look less in your face if you get what i mean, it will also tie in better with the grills and a certain splitter im looking at!
Whats peoples thoughts?

put the numberplate on the sunvisor that works
