this is how my car first looked (ignore the fusion alien like lol)
Image
Image
then i bought some bbs rx2's and suspension
Image
Image
winter was coming up so i decided i wanted to sort the wheels out get the lips polished up nicely
Image
i wanted to change the colour of the m aswell so i decided on blue!!!
Image
Image
Image
next on the list was to get the dash flocked (driving about with no dash was a bit of a pain lol)
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
MOT came up and it needed some new brake pads so i thought that was an excuse to get some EBC brakes and green stuff pads.
Image
i saw some colour concept leather seats going cheap on the internet so they got bolted in stright away!
And thats it for the moment

Very Nice job mate. Love the rims. I wanted to do something similar to my rims on the gti but found out all 4 were buckled :(

Can i ask. How you went about polishing the rim lips? and did you apply laquer ?

Have you any future plans?

polishing the lips took forever to do but the hard work was worth it!

Polishing them involved a lot of wet and dry sandpaper, metal polish and a lot of elbow grease lol

I want to get the bodywork smoothed out and light tint the windows and mabie get it a bit lower :D

Nice one man. I am prepared for it. Ha did you have to put a top coat of lacquer on them or do u just polish regularly?

I recently lowered mine 40mm but it's no where near enough. Going to order some coilovers and get it down ha.
