Apologies if I've missed any, but if there are any on here they'll likely be in the "Your cars" section...
One springs to mind...

eddie - wot ave u dun 2 ur car at the mo? ne pics at all??? sounds like u got ur plans well sorted! looks like u got a better idea than wot i am doing!  i cant make my mind up exactly wot 2 do! so many possibilties! 
i think im gonna end up (hopefully) putting a cliche kit on my car and lower it! wud like 2 get a interior re-trim in leather but i think its prob 2 much hassle and wud take me a while 2 save for it!

Yea i have lots of plains 1 i will give away is that
i want to see can i put a bigger engine in the car?Maybe see what happens over the next couple of months?
The cliche kit is nice allright.As for the leather? sort of was thinking of doing that(Only the back seats)front will be bucket seats.
