i think the wheels look pretty good but the baloon tyres are letting it down

Well I have got rid of the balloon tyres and fitted some VR6 BBS alloys after buying off a member on here. Looks better in my opinion. Next plan is to get some coilovers and lower it some more.

That looks great dude. Quick question, what did you use to spray the headlining black? Fabric spray paint or just normal spray paint?

Thanks for the comments Chaps and I am pretty sure that yours will look loads better Dom....much better than the standard Longbeach and the Mark 4 Balloons  :grin: :grin:

Khare....I removed the headlining and firstly sprayed Fabric Glue over it to make it go nice and hard like a plastic (did it by accident as I was going to cover with new fabric but took it off and discovered the headlining had gone rock hard). Then used normal spray can Gloss Black. Took about 10 coats to get it looking Black but well worth it. Looks loads better if you leave the trim original colour to break it up.  Planning on doing yours Buddy ??
