:D it's goin to run an XE (hopefully with headwork, cams, twin 45's ect. money permitting) totally blank canvas on the styling for it unsure of if its goin to be a mk1 or mk2 yet what d'ya rekon either way it's goin to be clean styled eg. smoothed gte bumpers or GSi with splitter
goin to have two buckets and harnesses with a mk2 dash with a difference
also its goin to be sprayed inside the same colour as the out then left as is (no carpet's / headliner)
what d'ya think to it?

well ive sorted out a mk2 dash for it off riggy. but im gonna see what wings come with it before i decide what its gonna be. if there mk1 wings it'll be a mk1 but with a GSi front bumper if mk2 then just a GSi front
for the rear its either gonna be a mk2 bumper with a GTE rear splitter or a gte smoothed off
cheers for all the offers of help. it may be needed :D
