Well I havent update my thread in a while as I havent done to much to be honest other than use the car,but what things I have done good and bad ill update the thread.First thing is ive replaced my front headlights with some none Hella smoked items which were brand new and smoked which ive been after for a while.Ive also had my 2 side windows and back screen tinted not everyones cup of tea but I like it so thats all that counts really.Had a little accident the other day using the jack out the boot which I always do before I use a trolley jack the car slipped to the side causeing the jack to damage my sill which really pissed me off big time  :grin: my fault really as the car was on loose surface so I lernt the hard way  :grin: anyway in one way its a good thing as its now pushed me to have the remaining paint work issues sorted which is the drivers wing painted due to some very small rust bubbles appearing plus stone chips and on my rear passanger quarter has a bird sh!t mark so thats being done at the cost of £250  :cry: but at least she will look her best again.I do have some more plans for this car mainly looks wise now the love is back few pictures of my new lights and the damged sill and other bits that will be painted thxs...



Damaged sill  :cry:



Areas that are being painted



Cars booked in 20th july once the paints done ill be posting some new pictures up  :wink:
