So the paint is a bit shabby, but i have panel beater friend who has decided to help me get the body work as spotless but as cheap as possible.

I also think im deff gonna need a new set of wheels or some spacers (and refurb standard alloys). Everything works except the central locking (easy fix i am told) and the speedo (which i will troubleshoot when i get it)

I am in the proccess of paying the car off and moving to cork, so funds are tight... i do estimate to have the car in my possession by early Feb, in time for FTO-Irl's Bday :D

Feel free to criticize as you see fit, praise is also accepted :P


Is this car in o`briens in mitchelstown looks familer

Can't say I like that at all, I'd prefer something like this...

The alloys might work but thats about all I'd do to it, apart from the facelift and the GPvR spoiler, they would be nice. Definately in no way have it anywhere as low as that image, for a start its an impossibility functionilty wise, secondly it looks chavvy and too pimp-my-ride. Better if it was like Bernards pic with the alloys you've shown and lowered a small bit.
Again, thats just my opinion. Its your car so you do what you want with it and don't let anyone else talk you out of it if you're set on it.

haha yes i know its way too low, but other than it being really low, (which i only did to cover up where i cut and pasted) the only difference is the alloys and 180sx roof look... thats what i was trying to get accross. i will mod one properly and post when i get the chance
