Thanks mate the clear depo's have gone now as they failed the MOT and I've replace them with normal depo's

Not much happened recentley, gave it a service and ran it through for mot, failed on lights but got no advisories

changed them over to normal depo's and it passed fine.

Since last update i have fitted lockwood dials, carbon wrapped the mfd and air circulation thing, i bought some opel mudflaps and fitted them but decided I wanted a rear airdam

bought one of them and got it sprayed up, also finally got the door and boot resprayed from when i did that dodgy rust repair job haha,

and here is how it looks now

heres a photoshop of how i want it to look

Since last update i have added some new numberplates, smd leds for all dash including heated seats and elec windows, and fitted some fli 6" component speakers. Also wrapped the clocks in carbon fibre which looks pretty good

Looking to lower it now so if anyone has any 40mm shocks and springs send me a u2u

Finally got round to lowering it, miles better but the front isn't sitting right so i might see if i can get away with lowering it 60mm instead and hope i get no scrubbing with the wheels

I've also done some rust repair under the arches and put couple of layers of hammerite and then some waxoil on top, i then secured my rear airdam properly as it has never been on right and has been pretty loose, also adjusted the exhaust so no knocking on ear beam and looks alot better tucked up to the bumper
