Bored so thought i would make one of these threads, bought the car for £200 from my dads garage when i was 16, someone part ex'd it for a clio. Used to be a BSM learner car covered about 100k miles now so a trusty platform for a first motor.

Havent got many pics from when i first got it this is the only i can find, first mods were lexus lights and funny style lettering plates, christ what was i thinking


18th birthday i got some speedlines was a cool present!






bought a badgeless grille off ebay, used the airsaw to cut the old bumper


also found a tailgate half smoothed with genuine gsi spoiler for £40, was better in the pics trust me! looked like it was cut with a knife and spoon!





then as my driving lessons went on and my test was booked things started taking shape

bought lowering springs and post 97 bumpers off ebay, depo lights, found an irmscher splitter after weeks of looking and full sportex exhaust system( sorry for phone pics)











finally first day on the road after passing my test looked like this, also added irmscher rear lights, civic aerial, had 106 numberplate recess moulded into rear bumper.











also more pics in my garage, will update as time goes cus theres lots more planned!
cheers Ash

Looking good - one of my favourites.

Love the side repeaters, look just the right darkness. Where did the people who bought them for you get them from?
