it will look better then this tho! going to get the red backbox lower more on banded steel's and put bodies on the xe so it sounds abit like a sport

the xe
It was sounding good until you said that :(

IMO if you're going to the trouble of fitting the correct seats (or at least the fabric), it should have the engine of a sport as well - people will just see it as a saloon with the sport graphics. Don't get me wrong, thats cool, but it would be cooler if it was a proper sport conversion.

Tbh that dont look too bad but why is the back box right under it near the rear beam lol hatch system methinks, you should definately go for a 1.3 on 40`s though bud please and it will be uber cool!

BIGS

well yes it was a ashley system on it. im not going to bother getting a system made up untill i get the red backbox to go on. And i know what your all saying about the 1.3 on 40s but i wont really be opening the bonnet and ive just spent loads of money putting the small block xe in so that will be staying and having bodies put onto it. its not like its going to be a exact sport rep as for one it has a boot. if it was a hatch maybe but its not so imo i can get away with it
