At this stage in things theres a lot of ideas but not alot of doing :P

Guessing i didnt do the images correct, Second shot!






:n:

As i didnt have a job at this point no mod's happened for a few months :homme:

First thing i did was sprayed the interior vents and speaker covers



And then fitted...

Disaster!

my friend kindly decided to slam my boot and the rear window completely caved in.

Bear in mind this happened while at college so then needed to sort it out quickly so headed to scrappy and picked up a black boot for £30.

Near enough finished...



Then i took a disliking to the citroen sticker on the rear window so i stanley knifed it out :P



Sorted! :p

Next i removed my terrible Pioneer 6x9's and i replaced them with a set of alpine's :A:



still not sure between cover on or off...

Was feeling generous a few weeks ago so i went for a drive to find some ok photo spots :wink:







Looks pretty good so far :y:

Next thing i did was de - wipering her :)

This was a lot more difficult than i thought as the bloody wiper arm wouldnt come off! :wall:
ended up hacksawing most of it off and then Wd40ing and levering it off with a flat head screw driver, (guess i just needed some muscle :homme:)



Looking nice ;)

Just a quick one

have found the best air fresheners known to man!

Seriously, search on amazon 'california scents' lasts for so long and they smell the tits!


:clapping::clapping::clapping:

I have read alot recently about bonnet raisers and i thought i would give it a go.

considering im fairly crap at stuff like this i found it incredibly easy so if your wanting to give it a go do it! you physically cannot go wrong.

Didnt need to order anything as went out into the shed and found some really wide washers and long nuts and it fitted straight on :D

What i now want to do is paint the sides on the bonnet black and then have the white saxperience sticker running up each side, will look mint :D



Opinions?

going to mesh the front grill next but no idea where to find some mesh!

Anyone got any ideas?

car looks nice and clean. not to sure on the alloys though..

They are a bit kirbed from the idiot before hand, i was thinking of sanding the kirbing down and putting some thick white rim tape along it

:bump:
