    no pics of his car, was just a low red 5 door, nothing special so-to-speak
    its a modified facelift bumper

    Just for those observative people, the rear is high because i stripped the rear out. But will be chopping the coils on the back to bring it back down. Car is soo much more responsive and pulls soo much better in 3rd and up hills
    Only temp though as the panels will be having some suede on them then refitted, keeping those heavy ass rear seats out though!
    Some sexy buckets will be added at some point.

        update
        Bumper has been sprayed and is on the car! 8)
        Fixed most the cracks and dinks in it, just got one that wont co-op but il let the bodyshop do it when it goes in for a full respray.
        This was done by spray cans, in non-perfect conditions. Outside and without a tinted light. (Extremely hard to spray white in direct or pure light, due to the fact of the paint just absorbing the light, you cant see a reflection and its very hard to see if your building paint up evenly, its a guessing game and you just hope you dont get to close to get runs.) I think for the conditions i was in, it came out very very well Got the odd spot here n there which could be better but ive still managed to get a smooth glossy finish Im very pleased at the colour match, which means my paint hasn't faded at all, just needs a polish to get the swirls out.

        Next up is the rear bumper, but im not in a rush for that atm, want to get the interior done, then set the rear height

        Picture time!
        Didnt have time to get any with the lights and grill in place but you get the idea. Yes it needs another clean..

        GRRRR how evil! :twisted:







        Cant really see how far the splitter is off the ground in the pictures.. but its pretty low :tongue:

              Nothing new since the last update, been snowed under with work and racing the new zx10r superbike

              However, the police seem to like my car


              £60 fine, no points for having no front plate, had a lecture about the rear tyres scrubbing on the arch (i think thats correct fitment but ohwell )

              As for no front wheel - had new pads and discs fitted, the caliper catchs the inside of the wheel so got to wear the pads down a mil or two

                Been a while since ive updated so took some snaps today (really need to have a proper shoot, iphone 4 camera is not the best)
                Update on the car since before.. erm.. not much Been spending money on tyres and engine rebuilds on the superbike so left me with next to near no cash. Black front and rear lights are about the only new upgrades. Had to shave the caliper in the end to get the wheels back on
                Enjoy..

                          Looks great! Would love to see it on some authentic wheels. Any other shots of it in the new colour?
