Mmm beautiful! Good choice on deciding to keep it as it is. Even the wheel trims really suit it, so I wouldn't even change those.

Very smart, it looks pretty mint, I wouldn't change a thing on it except I would add front mud flaps to protect against stone chips along the bottom of the sills and the bottom half of the body, but other than that it looks spot on.

Lovely car mate, looks very clean! Where did you get the pressed plates from and do you know if they're legal?

Indeed you have, she will always stay as she stands i reckon, cheers people :)

I got the plates off ebay, it said they were legal, got some paperwork/docs with them, so they should be, hopefully!

Shes just hit 22 thou on the clock tho, what a bugger :(
