I have lots of different ideas and plans for the car these are some of the ideas:

- Coilovers
- Decat and Better manifold and downpipe
- Maybe a 1.1 Gearbox???
- Forced Induction Kit
- Lower Strut
- Wheels sprayed in anthracite

I would love carbon bonnet aswell anyone know where i can get them for good prices. or if anyone is selling one let me know.

thanks bud. Yer iv haven't seen any front lights like that before. i had to split the glass of the front of the light to spray inside. I think Im gonna try and keep the car looking relatively standard. Im saving up for GAZ coil overs at the moment that will be the first thing il do :P.

I havent been on this in a while so i thought that i would update what i have done to my car in the past months.

i have achieved a fair bit doing bits and bobs.
i now have a full exhaust system:
4 2 1 manifold to decat to powerflow centre and backbox.
yellow fogs
all citroen badges black
sprayed rocker cover (tidy up engine bay)
pipercross airfilter and pipework.
Oil catch tank
bonnet spacers
and recently bought some new wheels for it as fancied a change and the VTS wheels needed new tyres so was best tikme to change.

I used zinc primer then used wicked red paint from halfords.. dont worry bout heat temp paint. My mate does bodywrkand said normal paint is fine and semms all good atm. I applied thin layers each time snd put yins in a bowl of hot water before sprayingmake the paint warm so applies thinner takes longer to finish as u use more coats but comes out alot better. Then wait to dry wet and dry paint down and i laquered it. Takes a while to paint but comes out good.
