I love wicked reds, so a bit jealous!
Looking good though, and that list looks good. Would rather smoke the headlights than get angels though.

Personally despise Morettes ha, but that's just me. Either smokes or Angels.
Update;
*LED Side/License/Interior lights went in this morning shall get some pics up tonight/tomorrow
*Got the Mintex pads and discs, just waiting on the other pair of discs, then shall all be fitted by the end of the week.

Cheers, hah yeah they got an advisory on the last MOT (before I had it) and they're renowened for not being very good so though an upgrade was pretty high up on the list.
I'm in two minds about the Angels now, swaying more toward Smokes.
Mine are like 100w hah, plus LED sidelights they're so bright.

Not actually driven it under pressure at all since fitting them but driving round my estate they seemed to be a vast improvement. I was thinking about but didn't quite seem necessary at the time, I may well upgrade the calipers at a later date but pads and disc shall suffice for now.
Ha yeah so I've been told, I am slowly falling for her though literally. Haha!
Cheers.

Been a week or so now and can definately say they improved brakeing. 306gti6 calipers have gone on the list of things to do though.
Other than that nothing has relly happened this month waiting for a cheque to come through from the thrid parties insurance from the accident to cover my excess so once I get that I'll shall get a couple other bits, probably backbox and pipe. Then towards the end of the month/start of next month when I get paid I shall be getting slammed on her arse. 
But until then, clean clean clean.

Looks lovely all cleaned up mate. Smoked front lights and lowered and that would look spot on, just not sure about the tints though...
The old brakes looked well and truly fooked!

I love the look of this car and you have a good few updates. I love what you have done with the Alloys, they look the same as mine just in mint condish lol, thinking about making mine white but your making me want to keep black.
Looks a tidy wee car and look forward to more updates.

Yeah thanks, I really cannot decide between smokes or angels think I'm gunna go with Angels mind to keep subtle circular mods i.e angels and piper box.
Tints were on the car when I got it, personally I really like them and so does everyone that get's in the back.  Each to their own though.

Haha ya think? Only downside to black alloys is how shit they make the tyres look. Yeah had the full Kam/Supersprint system on my VTR just fancy something a bit bigger and louder this time. Can you compare??

Thanks man, ha yeah they're not finished still need another coat and laquer but pretty happy with how it's looking at the moment. I am also tempted by white but then I change my mind about mods more than a women changes shoes so.
Thanks, yeah Exhaust got ordered this morning so depending on how fast Royal Mail get their act together may well have it up by the end of the week, might try get a vid up in all.
