Right got some new pics!! Ok it does not really look like there has been much progress but there has been loads of stuff fixed that you cannot see (new engine mount, shock, brakes all round, door handle, CV joints, headlight switch and a mot etc etc) but now **touchwood** all is good so (except a squeeky spoiler) may now be able to start doin cool stuff!

Maybe im getting old but recently i have started to think that as its a fairly mint standard car i really dont wanna do that much too it, i was thinking perhaps a set of g60 bbs, possibly with colour coded centres (black or maybe yellow if someone could photoshop it cos not sure if it would look cr@p) or just get the sebrings refurbed and sort those bl00dy centre caps out, lowered, red tint rears and pressed steel/german plates and leave it at that. Views/comments appreciated!

Looking good Martin. :cool:

If you like it as is then don't do too much to it, just do a few reversible mods that take your fancy that you can always change back if need be. That's pretty much what I did with my old cab, kept fairly standard apart from an indicator change and a bit of lowering. Yours is iconic as it stands, especially being yellow, so I wouldn't deviate too far from that if it was mine and some refurbed or new wheels will make it look a whole lot fresher anyway and you may not want to do much more. :cool:

lower it first and see how you feel then. If you like how it sits on the wheels that are on it the leave it. Personally I think it needs some bigger, deep dished numbers scrubbing away at the arches. Im not one to worry bout leaving cars standard if its not what you want, do it how you want it to look

thats the best mk3 ive seen..ever! its just clean and subtle.. :cool:
