Haven't been on this much lately, but a few bits have changed, I got some Audi pepper pots off a Friend on Club Polo, I had the car professionally polished/paint restored so its so shiny now. De-bagded the rear "polo" bit, Sprayed my rear lights all red, Fitted some tinted side indies, Fitted my home made dust caps, Gave the interior a good clean down the sides of the seats etc. Then after all that I had to take my pots off due to the Parents queering my insurance (As they Weren't declared) so I removed them to keep them happy. But I noticed my steels looked rubbish so gave them a good lick of paint and some lacker and the car is starting to look presentable even with them on it. I also sprayed my rear view mirror because it looked boring!!
Might be going for some lowering springs antil my insurance is cheap enough for coilies. Here's alot of pics any way!

Cheers, A lot more to do when I pass hopefully, Hoping to lower it some how and maybe changing the pots for something not sure yet. Cars staying like this till i pass for now and then i can go mad, But doubt i will be able to with the cost of insurance these days. :( Started saving big time tho.
