bit too low at the rear for me, front should always be a bit lower imo

I love it tho :-)

Not too bad, what wheels are you thinking of getting?

The Plans are....

full VTS conversion....
maybe a kit but keep the flat arches...
strip the interior
get a cage in it(my mate has one trial fitting it this weekend just to see what it will be like)
morettes or Angel eyes not sure

just the usual

Dont want to buy a vts as i want to keep the shell i have ;-) prob cost more on the long run the conversion but its what i want

I think that would look allot better in person that it does in pictures, The quality of them pics isent the best either but it's looking pretty nice. My only bit of advice is that i would have the zaust put in the bumper a bit; like the furio/vtr/vts. :) Looking good though bud.

...............UPDATE.............

picked up my new mirrors and put them on and some other colour coded bits
seats are on the way should be picking them up from DHL tomorrow or wed

what should i do

1.Strip the car out and put the roll cage in and swap the engine
2. Bigger ICE, bodykit and flip paint

can get all of the above easily... the rollcage is at my mates.... its not ashow one covers the rear 3/4 of the car

Looks pretty nice matey, you need that number plate sorting though.

Morettes will look cool too also out of the two options you mentioned number one fore sure. Dont spoil it with a kit.

bit too low at the rear for me, front should always be a bit lower imo

15mm difference between the front and back is best for handling apparently? think thats what they say at peugeot sport and im guessing its the same for citroen
