Full respray still in Carabic Blue
7.5J x 16" Borbet Design T (Reurbed with anthracite spokes and leaving the polished lip)
FK KonigSport Coilovers
My MHW lights will be replaced by Irmscher Smoked rears
Post '97 front bumper
Kamei Grille
BlueFlame/Sebring/Magnex system with 6x4 or 5x3 Oval tail pipe.

Heres what the rear should look like...


Should all come to fruition by the end of February. Irmscher rears are on order and shall arrive in a week or so from Germany. Wheels & Suspension will arrive when I get my student loan. The other little things will happen either on a weekly or monthly timescale.

Not really. Ive had them on order for a bit, and when you work for vaux and get em cheap im not complaining.

The MHW ones i have arent the best quality and the nearside has gone mucky down the bottom so I want a new set.

irmscher ones are made by MHW

and the quality of MHWs is as good if not better than standard lights

I will be selling the old MHW's

Not the best condition so id only want about £80.

Offside is mint, but nearside at the bottom is mucky. Bet if i could be bothered to take em apart and clean it then it'd be mint again.

Another thing. Im doing this and you seem to be slating me, if i was to get a huge bodykit and 20" wheels etc you'd slate me. Seems that nothing can please you lot.

Luckily for me I dont care what you lot think but I would just like your opinions.

Im doing this because I want to and I want a mint looking car with a euro-ish style to it.

all i was saying was it seemed a bit pointless changing the lights for identical ones with a sticker on

i like the plans other than that

Im a perfectionist mate and those rear lights bug me so I feel like I need to change them.

Doubt many others drive around with a full AutoGlym Valeting kit in there car I dont think im a 'bufty' concours guy but everything needs to be perfect. Hence why im changing them, Ive got the smoked angel eyes up front and smoked crystal side reps.

Its just crying out for the wheels and suspension atm. But id rather wait and get everything done at once.

Did somebody not get the irmy ones a few days ago and said how they were much better than the MHW ones?

Well now rob has convinced me to get 14" Borbet Design T's instead of 16".

BUT...

14s the ET is ET35 and are 7J
16s the ET is ET40 and are 7.5J

He thought the 14s would be better....

I know im gonna need arch mods, they will be trimmed back, rolled and maybe flared.

Cheers mav, getting them for <£190. Thats all I can say.

Wheels will be coming from dubmeister.co.uk so depends how long it takes for them to arrive and ill get the Konigsports from RimStyle.

Putting the christmas bonus and student loan to good effect
