my dads into modifying and hes 44 :lol: he used to have an old capri that he used to unleash his box of tricks on as a lad

If your into cars now theyn you alwyas will be IMO!

Just do the modding scene till you get bored of it all then go for the power and tuning scene.If you get me

Its my hobbie. Its def not a phase. If it is ive had this phase for over 10 years now.

people think that way , but one u work with them its totally different

Yeah will your attitude towards cars mature and you may not be interested in extreme designs etc anymore?

Same here , totally LOVE modding and i dont ever think i will grow out of it.

Wise words phil. But i gotta admit, this aint work. I LOVE doing what i do.

i work / train in my local car bodyshop which is fun :thumbs:

I agree with scott, go to your local car shop. Get your foot in the door.

You just gotta read as much as you can to learn. Its all about experience.

You gotta know the basics of cars because at the end of the day people come to you for advice and expect you to know about products for every car listed.

That includes ppl that come in with protons and kia's and ask for bodykit.

I have a wee 15 yr old guy that works for me on weekends for nothing cos he's sooo keen on learning.

go work for RTEC, Xtreme, Ripspeed , get the foot in the door and learn , they pay about 15k a year
