Mike_08 - Progress Thread.

[Mike_08]

Right iv had my car for just under a year now and only shown a few pics on here. So i think its about time i got round to making my own progress thread as every one els on here seems to have one. being young and new to the whole scene at the time i got it i went though proberly the most common phases wich looking back on now im so glad i found this site. Most of the work i done all by myself and knew next to nothing about car's when i started. but the only way to lern is to get stuck in.

Here is a few pics of when i first got the car and the first of the stupid mods.





Then i found this site and fell in love with the silver and black theme and the subtle look. So i stripped the car and started from scratch. First of the new mods was some smoked rear lights to replace the lexus lights and a new grill. then the next on the must do list was black rear badges, de wiper, smoked headlights and fogs and back to the black vtr rims.






Then bacame a full member on here and replaced the grill with my standerd one that i color coded silver with black mesh and chevrons and got some french style plates.



After all of this was done it stayed like that for a while untill i got bored then made the big changes. Pug GTI leather with black seatbelts and a VTR gearknob to match and get it lowered 60mm all round.






Once again got bored with it so sold my smoked rear lights and went back to the standerd rears. Up till now i have got a volt gauge and pod and have fitted a new mirror cap as when i got the car it had just a black mirror on the left side that had the top painted.





And thats really it up untill now. So here is a few pics of it how it is now and im loving it

In my opinion Black VTR wheels look better than Black VTS wheels

Car looks spot on mate, glad you saw the light and removed them aftermarket wheels.

Nice show cage would compliment the car very nicely
