UPDATE - New backbox

Backbox, 2 rubbers and clamp. £28 on trade from motor factors


After a few sprays of WD40 and mallet i managed to get the backbox off





No pictures of it fitted as its just a standard one, sounds better though as its not blowing! But its started rattling on my rear axle Ill get that sorted on Sunday though before the meet!

Also, snow was quite heavy this morning hehe

I really need ideas of what to do next.

I wanted to keep the engine standard but im tempted by one of those inlet reps and exhaust manifold..

But interior/exterior is what i really want to change.

Should i debadge the rear?
Tint the rear 3 windows?
Delock passenger door? Or both when i get my alarm fitted?

Anymore ideas welcome!

IMO
Delock passenger side when you get the alarm - i did it on mine, felt better knowing i had atleast 1 key lock (came in handy when car came back from assessors with dead battery )

If youre going to tint the rears id do them a light smoke, limo black FTL IMO

Plain plates?
c/c boot lock?
c/c some interior?
Dials? - dunno whats been done inside.
