right, the vanimal!!!

this is how it stands now, if i find a vrx engine with 6 speed box will be getting one of them! its ultra reliable as it is tho and have no issues driving it anywhere, will be doing modball in it next year!

i dont need the car everyday so i can do things to it, do i go mad on styling???

ideas include,

changing shape of wings and bonnet like badboying only sutle tho?

smoothing roof rails

smoothing bump strips out

smooth boot, relocate number plate, not sure this will suit it tho?

get set of merc wheels.... like 8.5 inch wide front and 9.5inch rears and then make some custom arches to go over wheels! nothing mad just suttle?? think it could look awsome!

but will these things still keep it reliable for mod ball?

wot ideas u guys got?

Very nice

I think you should have the roof rails done in alu type paint to be like the modern audi ones............not sure if thats a bit camp like but I think it would be smart

Go for some VXR 19's or Snowflakes in gunmetal or BBS LM's and maybe an Opel badge on the boot?

Paint it white, put some steelies on it, put an orange light on the roof, standard black bumpers with some cement on the back on, put some stickers like a council van would have on it.

It doesn't look right at the moment, the wheels don't suit it and the front end is hideous.
