By no means is it finished yet, but the difference already is pretty cool.. Had it in for its MOT yesterday, and only needed a few bits and bobs..
Next is 60mm front springs as soon as I find a set, then a GSi front end once I get round to painting it..
Also anyone know how I can find out how many estates actually came with 2.0 in them as standard??? Few folk have said its quite rare...
Comments welcome.

Leaving them till I put the GSi front end on.. It doesnt have a black bit so will mean I'll only have to do the back bumper one.
