That looks awesome dude. Glad to see another progress thread from you. I used to love the ones you did when you first started painting. You still doing other people's cars or are you still running the pub? | |

Looks good mate! Personally not a fan of the extended bonnet and wings and smoked lights! IMO looked best in 2009! Needs genuine gsi bumpers and new alloys and it would look great :thumbs: | |

2009, i then decided to take the z20let engine out and replace it with a leh engine from mk5 astra vxr, had only done around 7k miles and wanted a 6 speed gearbox, that was fitted and went for a stage 4 map at courtney, came back with 281 hp but was beinh held back by my exhaust and de cat pipe being small! | |

then i decided to tidy it up, fitted coilovers, went up to 18s and painted the car arden blue, modified the front bumper and did few other bits.... it stayed like this for rest of 2008 | |
