to say the least she was a shed, so i decided to swap my mk2 bumpers with bex for her mk1's

erm.... nah didnt really like it, i personally like the cable tie effect lol

also got these for ?20 with a set of what was belived to be 30mm lowerign springs

fitted the springs and well she went down.... 15mm DOH so have now ordered a set of 60mm springs and dampers from halfrauds

some **** then decided they didnt like me and crashed into me revealing a huge hole and needing a sill and rearquarter amongst other things

so i called in a favor with a mate at the body shop.... and she has come back red, i have also fitted some standard bumpers painted satin black to her(well ive painted the front one any way lol will do the back when i get a good day, also fitted a cherry bomb as flower was a bit to quiet

shes had all the badges and trim removed, an alarm, imboliser and some fancy anti sheft locks which are a ****ing ball ache to open in the dark:roll:

i also added some rip speedmats to make me feel a chav at heart, ****er lights and a fake carbon fibre gear knoblol

ive decided that doing anything silly with the engine would result in too much time off the road, so all my plans are now is front and rear strut brace, rear roll cage and a full leather retrim in black with red stitching and red opel badges in the seats, i also want to paint the ?20 rims satin black and stick opel badges to the centers as well as the lowering, posibly change the steering wheel and just then keep it fairly clean/mint, plus im now on the lookout for a vauxall firenza:thumb:

looks good mate. Think you should go for some better wheels. even gte 3 spokes or something would make it look cool.

lol ive just had the tyres taken off those 15's to paint them, will paint them and perhaps make my mind up dont really want to spend to much on her just subtle mods and keep her looking quite standardish
