Aaron found my old show plate thing in my boot... decided to stick on the car! Its only £30k to get this properly made and registered... Deffo worth the investment?!
Nothing major done recently, just sorting audio out as I got bored of having shit speakers / no bass. Installed sub and set up the headunit again last night. Got my components to go in ASAP.
New wheels next month hopefully

Dude if you think of something to do but arent sure about best way to do it then drop me a pm and il see if I can advise!
Oh and the power steering pump is the wrong one unfortunately  , there are 3 different designs ive seen so far and I need the Mk2 vtr one as far as I can see :/ |
Ahh, that sucks man. Worth a shot!
20mm is deffo the best height, although not sure on MK2 bonnets... Will have to see how yours turns out! Its the reason I didn't get them on my last car..
I'll drop you a PM later, got some plans!

i think you need a change in wheels...white maybe? or silver. dont really like vtr wheels  |
Yeah, I'm going off them now. 205 wheels next, Found a set local.. just need to get off my arse and go get them! I do love the MK1 shape now, just I love the mean look... Just prefer the angels / badboy bonnet on MK2.
That F40 was actually gorgeous, it sounded IMMENSE.

I did speak to Wes about his! I'll see how much he wants for them - going to look at another set hopefully next week that need a major refurb... but they are cheeeeap.
I'll drop him a text.
Performance? So far is just Green panel filter, Piper 421 mani, straight pipe to my jap can backbox...
Starts getting really expensive to do more! I did look at fast road cams, but we'll see how funds progress in the coming months!

Not a lot happened recently
Not had the time to do anything, although I've got a list of plans as long as my arm!
Just little bits.
Putting standard lights back on until I can get some smoked jewels, as I've fallen out of love with my matt tinted standards.
Rehung my exhaust after it fell off down the A130... Lovely picture of Rodney posing with the system!
Distinct lack of clearance between the hanger and the rear shock!
Wingnuts, the beautiful man that he is washed and properly cleaned all of our cars the other night before a lakeside meet. <3
You can just make out Rodney's sexy arse in the background of that picture 
Car looks so shit next to Rodney's Want his wheels and smooth bumper!
Had the best weekend with him though, now to do a few little things before FCS and then on with the rest of the plans after hopefully!
New Grill.
New Wheels.
Smooth Indicators in wing.
Relocate indicators into fogs.
Retrim headlining in black suade.
Relocate window switches to doorcards.
Amp components and hide amp in boot.
Lamex headlights and fog lights for stealth look.
Smoked jewels for rear.
Should be a fun few months!

Well, few little things!
Firstly, got hold of a set of gun metal 205 wheels, cleaned these up and put them on for FCS
After FCS, got back to Rodneys and some major changes took place with his car!
So, in the end I sold the 205 wheels to someone, and ended up with these!
Need a proper clean again, but gorgeous wheels.
14 x 7.5 with strettttttched tyres! Just need to lower the car a bit more now to make it sit right. But loving them
