My Icelandic Furio!

[Lewiswhitlock]

So ive been on here a while and decided although this will be more than likely the slowest progress thread on the forum i should start one up!

So brought the car with 50,000 miles on it almost immaculate condition for £2000.

Completely standard when i got it, (including the god awful wheel trims that come with it)

First job was to get some alloys put on there and heres how she currently stands!


















The alloys arent black aswell guys, there a real dark grey with flakes. Go a slight purple/red in the sunlight, cant wait for the summer! Think there gonna look sweet in some real bright sunlight!


Intend on:
Lowering 40mm all around.
Upper & lower OMP strut braces
Supersprint stainless race system
BMC CDA
Tint the rear quarters (only a slight tint)
Good tidy of the engine bay as the previous owners have definately not touched it since new!
Possible 16v Conversion once im no longer an 18 year old risk ):
A custom interior retrim
Vts rear beam (drums are just embarrasing)

Anyone got any pointers?
