Hello, i have finally got round to doing my progress thread, i have currently done a fair amount, but of course there is still a lot more to go, when the funds allow it.

This is my Car when i brought it - the lovely suzie :) :

Right, all the following has taken place over about 3 months

Firstly, i changed the rear lights to lexus lights.

But being after market lights they didn't fit correctly, and leaked. so i changed them back the standards which i then smoked.

Next, i meshed my front grill:

And i also fitted eye brows.

Next came my sound system. - 12" fusion Sub, MOS 6x9 and 6 1/2" speakers.

Then i colour coded the interior and fitted new gear not and petrol cap

then i colour coded the rear badges, because i didnt have the time or money to have it debadged.

Then i fitted bucket seats

Then the time came when i got bored of layout of sound system, so i new one appeared.

Then i fitted a 4" slash peco exhaust - sounds gorgeous tbh

Since that, i have also added, remote central locking - snapped key in door at tesco lol stupid boy.

Then the day comes which we all never want to happen, the first accident in the saxo, luckily wasnt that bad, could have been worse but need a new set of alloys :(

Nice flat arch mate!

Was it hard to install remote central locking? And how much did you pay for the parts for it?

20 quid buddy, bit of a pain to fit becuase you have to bend rods, but after that its easy!!, got a kit from ebay. ' hawk' kit. cheap and works really easily.

Nice setup there mate, i got my vt kit from the scrappy only 20 quid for the trims and 20 quid for each bumper, But that depends on different scrappys so you might not get them that cheap.
