As I had nothing else to do today, I thought Id spend some time properly cleaning my car, and then get some semi decent pictures of it.
Recent little "mods" include a "Twinport" Debadge (which I forgot to get pics of  ) and custom SXi badges. Also picking up a set of smoked Irmscher side repeaters from Vaux tomorrow morning.
Car is finally booked into bodyshop for May 15th to get the damage sorted - £298 
If I have any money left after that, I want to try and get on with lowering it a bit (no lower than -30mm) and get a decent stereo in there.
Quite please with how some of the photos came out too  What you guys think? Comments?

Some cnut decided to reverse into my car in a car park and leave no details about 2 weeks after I had the car - Dented wing and bumper and scraped paint 
MattyRoss - How do you know Max?! Its a place just down from him thats quite cool for photos!

RCB: Yeh your wrong  lol Sold this:
Yeh realli like the Ultra Blue colour, was originally looking to buy a silver one, but this was sat next to a silver one I was looking at in sunlight, and it looked so that I changed my mind! Only other colour I quite like is the Aztec Gold too!
DNA/Sam: Yeh Im not gonna fiddle and make it worse - I'll leave it to the bodyshop - costing me enough to get it done!! And yep, SXi badges are currently being watched on ebay to rectify that!

RS6, no I didnt - Just decided to get a bodyshop to do it, as I knew Id have some come back then if it goes bad, or Vaux get in a strop regarding warranty etc
Wrighty - Its standard SXi setup atm (about -10/15mm) Want to drop another -20/30mm though Nothing too much tho - Just subtle and still very practical!
