As some of you may remember i started smoothing the bumpers and fitting GSi skirts a few months back , just to remind some of you car did look like this;




Now it looks like:





Got a patch on the tailgate that needs some attention, and theres some polish on the read bumper I missed

Just got to fit my Hi-SPec 4 pots now and new manifold and car will be officially finished.

What size are those wheels? They look big, think you sould think about lowering it a bit more...

Like what you have done with the arches

im not spending any more money on it Ed.

Wheels are 17s. Agree it could do with being lower though i can promise you it always looks higher when its parked on my drive for some reason.

Know what you mean, sometimes wheels look big in pics, depends on the surface you park it on and stuff

Smart bonnet too

The wheels do look big but they're 17"s (correct?) so they're bound to look big...that's kinda the idea

a couple of cracks between arch and bumper on the read, not too noticable though, they were helped along by some tool driving his BMW into me at a roundabout a few weeks ago

Lock surround will get done this weekend as might the door handles.

No, it was a case of ThunderWing DoomSlayer 1, BMW 0. Had to refill some of the rear bumper but that was about it. Was more grateful it happened before it was painted.

I was thinking of changing the wheels a few months ago Mav but decided as I said above not to spend anymore money on it.

Thanks for the comments guys
