i was thinking this the other day when decided to do the engine change.

but seeing as im having it done in a week then wont really be able to smooth it etc.
so going down the light wire tuck look, standard colour engine bay and having a complete black engine!

The trim was done by junior at MJ interiors, the final bill came to about £5500, every single thing inside is covered in leather though.

That's one hell of a bill.
