cheers jv

ok well i bought the car nearly a year ago and it was totaly standered with full service history full years mot and tax.
had done 120000 miles roughly.

havnt realy got many pics of it at the start and of me making and modding things but have a few if the car changing and will now start taking more pics and posting them as i go. as no doubt i will be chnging the car every few months as i get bord fast lol.

the first thing i had to do was get some coilovers as i just had to drop it as low as i could as thats how i like it.
also added a vr6 splitter.
some of these pics are going to be bad quality to start as i used my crap phone at the time to take them and now have a camera.

these are the earlyest pics of it lowered on coilys and vr6 splitter added. and for some stupid reason i thought a dub badge would look good

i then thought is was time a saved up and got some wheels.
i wanted brand new wheels and i love the look of lensos so i got myslef a set of 15" 7j lenso bsx with 195 45 15 tyres.

i then had a brain wave to lose the chrome wing mirror covers, lose the numberplate surrounds lose the dub badges and get a debadged grill and make the 2 fins red at the tips and put a red pinstripe in the plastic trim round the car and do the wheel centre badges red.

a few months later i then decide to get an exhaust so i managed to win a twin can backbox on ebay pretty cheap so then fitted that.

i also decided to take the red stripe out of the plastic trim and do a tripple coach line in red with angle cut front end. and add a red gti badge to the debadged grill.
