iSlayeR 1.1 Saxo, going back to standard, resprayed!
Never really made a progress thread on here before, but thought i'd start one as i've now started a big project on my car
the car as it stood before i wanted a change (one on the left)
And the car at the moment
Plans are:
Vt* kit (got)
* smoothed out fog holes
*smoothed out tow eye
* smooth front grill
*smooth bump strips
*smooth side indicators
*smooth aerial
standard bonnet (got)
106 mirrors
Car then resprayed in white (havn't decided what type of white yet)
White door cards (front and back)
and hopefully if funds allow me, lowered 60-70 mm on springs and uprated shocks
* NOTE: All the work will be done by me. stay tuned
