A few progress pics. Don't pass judgement yet though! Still loads to do, but awaiting finances due to moving house.
Not overly keen on the clear rear lights, so will part paint them Red soon or something similar. Got Vauxhall mats inside now too, which will match the SRi interior when I get round to putting it in. Still not painted wheels. Got a Sparco Speed steering wheel for it too. Shocks and springs going on next along with interior, got Apex springs and KYB uprated shocks. Also getting some GSi arches and skirts soon, which will get painted a dark grey along with the bumpers
The work continues (and unfortunately so does the decorating that is setting me back!).

Hmmm,
Have to say, the clear rears would look better if the bumpers etc were colour coded white!
Like the debadging, looks a lot smoother!
Desparatly needs lowering, new numberplates and wheels though

I'll semi-paint the rear lights and then they should look a bit better. I'm sticking with Black bumpers to try and keep a bit of a standard look, although they'll all be painted in a dark shade of grey (along with the GSi skirts).
Springs are here to lower it and shocks are waiting for me. Just want to do it the same time as the wheels for maximum effect.
Hoping weather is going to be ok tomorrow and then I can stick interior in 
As for plates I have a private reg I can stick on it (B16 MPF), but haven't put in on yet. ANOTHER thing on the list, lol!
