sorry dude not going trax, a little short on cash at the moment and i think im going edition 38 show next month...

update time, only a small one though, will be quite a few updates soon as ive been spending a bit of money on it..

anyways heres the few bits that ive done..

it had black trim on top of the doors which was abit tatty (can just make out the black trim in this pic)



anyway i took that off and it was well grubby underneath, mixture of dirt/glue..



with alot of elbow grease, and sore fingers the outcome was worth it..



took it down to have the middle box chopped out as it hung very low, also when they welded the straight through pipe in the twisted it all around so it sits alot higher without smaller exhaust rubbers..





plan to have a few more changes to the exhaust aswell soon..

and also did this..

before:



after:



quite a few updates to come soon, some small and some bigger..

hope you guys like..
