I bought this little ripper about 2 months back for ?150 with 12 months mot. I intended to clean the arches up and sell it for twice wat i paid as its quite mint. But however things have changed and now im keeping her. The doors are mint and the sills battery tray, boot etc but she does need a new set of rear arches and a n/s front wing. I have bout me a full gmax kit and some cavi gsi wheels which i have sprayed gloss black (took me ages 2 rub the fukers down) i work next to a bodyshop so i am going to do a semi self prep lol (no rushing for sure) have got me new rear arch panels and ordering the wiong next week then hopefully before xmas maybe after i will get her respayed in Kawasaki Green. I no there is a few bin done before but none round here and a certain eye catcher im keeping it going to keep it a mk1 gte rep. The after xmas towards may i will treat her to a new lump probz a c16se :thumb: The fun starts!! (Sorry about the S.A lol)

Looks like a good start to the project, but please get the arches replaced with normal repair sections, will look much better.:thumb:
