After a few pictures it was time to get cracking,

so i attempted to fit my Honey Combe lower grilles, the fog lights took 2 seconds to change but the middle one was a nightmare :twisted: ! Eventually had enough so i just cut it out, ! Looks so much better once done..
few pics ...

Then i orderd a Shark fin Ariel courtesy of daveiow! still needs an adopter to work but i fitted it anyway ha..

I fitted some bulbs, there Mtec halogen bulbs from Hid Direct, and i must say im very pleased with them, give off a nice blue and white and ya dont look like a chav, park next to my mate with 6000k HID and his were alot brighter but in colour wise was nothing in it! havn't got a picture of these yet but ill will do later!

also sitting in the garage waiting to go on this week is

- H and R springs
- Black Front badge
- Alpine screen!
- PD160
- Green filter

Future plans..
