But it was time to say good bye and try something new 
so i picked myself up a RB 182 and i love it so nice to drive and the handling is much better then my saxo! and really nice to drive.
i have a few plans in mind for it Eg brake upgrades, and engine and handling, but coming up soon going to give it a service and getting it like its new!

New grill would look insane on it I think! Keep the badge though, not a fan of debadged grills! Keeping it the same colour?

This looks tidyyyyyyyy!

Keep it clean, keep it fresh!

Wouldnt bother with OEM as its extremely expensive (700 quid or something last time I investigated) and its mild steel. You really need to drop the rear beam down to remove the standard exhaust anyway, its only a few bolts and the shock bolts, as the standard exhaust doesnt have a joint between the rear boxes and the back of the cat. You could just the cut OEM exhaust is what I did and the remove. Most aftermarket systems have a join there so its easy to fit, plus they are usually stainless and unless you go for something ultra top end like an orbisound exhaust you can get a decent brand system for 350 to 500 quid or so. Yozzas are popular as are the scorpion systems, plus others like Ktec etc etc

RS192 can be a pain to fit, I've got the single box SRN019 I think it is with imola tips. Dead easy to fit that as its single box. Was about £350~, be cheaper second hand its just finding them
