A Week Down The Road My Mate Chris(Sax-P Member:CustomChris) & Myself Got To Work Cleaning The Bodywork, In The Week Following I Kept Saying I Just Didnt Feel The Car Was Mine So I Decided To Go For A Major Clean Removing Parcel Shelf,Rear Seats/Bench Front 2 Seats And The Entire Carpet & Underlay. From This I Got it Spanking Clean + Found A Few Quid..
Once I Got My Magic Trees In & Had Given The Car A Febreeze Attack It Was Ready To Be Rebuilt. While Doing So I Fitted My Flat Pioneer Subwoofer & Kenwood Headunit

Kept Looking At The DTM Mirrors & Looking & Looking & I Just Couldnt Take A Liking To The Poxy Things,
Went On The bayy & Picked Up Some With Silver Caps.. Sorted Just Needed Painting
Wacked Them On & Taped The Holes With Abit Of Tape While I Painted Them.

Looking At The Dullness I Nipped To The Local Wilco's & Picked Up Some Simoniz Black Bumper Restorer Gel (Back To Black Basically)
Afterwards..
Had Some Paint Mixed To Match The Car & Sprayed Them Myself, While I Had The Paint In My Hand, I Looked At The Chrome Grill..Run Across And Wipped It Off
Mirror Caps On -ALOT Better I Think  ?
