Not much too update

But bought a new votex front splitter for my front end to give it that extra depth, not yet had it painted tho that will be done when she goes in for more paint.

Lowered the car another 15mm but still not too happy with the way it's sitting so will attack it again

And that's pretty much it

Been hunting about for some big brakes and hopefully a set of nice sporty seats

Pics now of it slightly lower on the front

SO the front grill got freckled after a trip to germany and with the salt gritters it go worse so Dropped the grill in to shop to get painted.

Ordered up some open front grills

And as I managed to break a piece of my air vent grill on the dash I thought id better get a new one and replace it

Also bought a foam platform for the rear of the car so i can store my emergency tools etc






Hopefully give the car a quick clean today ready for tommorows show (Early Edition)

Not Much to update tbh

Im thinking of changing my current subwoofer to a more disreet and classy type I fancy something thats enclosed in the passenger side well, but lets see, Ive spoken to some one whos got one just need to do the drive.

Since having the Speedlines and coilovers fitted I hadnt got round to having the car tracked so I had that done on the weekend, also had the rear camber set to 3.0 as I wanted more camber as Current wheels were rubbing on hard cornering.

Really happy with the look for now.

Got some more parts together but need to find the motivation to get them on to the car.
