    Looking good mate, agreed about the tints some standard rear lights will finish it off nicely

    Euro reverse lights would look good with foglight bulbs modified into the reverse bit.

    aye i'd not mind doing something like that mate, but unfortunately the subtle touches have to wait untill the more pressing issues are sorted, namely the rotten arches and doors (removing tints and chav lights are more important than arches btw )

    Had a bit of a mince about last night, trying to fit some speakers. unfortunately the PO had butchered all of the stereo wiring, so i just had some 6x9's hacked into the parcel shelf, a tangle of wires loosely resembling amp wiring, and nothing up front

    so the plan was to use some bits i had laying around, such as a 4 channel amp, 2 6x9's and 2 6" speakers. amps going under the passenger seat, 6"s behind the front door cards and 6x9's in the rear quarters.
    unfortunately, the 6"s wouldn't fit in the door skin, or behind the card,s and the amp wouldn't go under the seat either

    so out of desparation for a radio, stuck some grotty 4" things in the doors just for now.

    too big

    note the very 80's aftermarket electric windows

    4 whole amps of distortion and vibration oh yes


    also, my tyres turned up at work today, so they can go on after i refurb the wheels


    and some center caps came in the post, big thanks to Nov4 Sport




    what colour do we reckon for the wheels? I'm feeling maybe anthracite or dark silver-gray?
