Reg is in the ad, T871 BFM - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/280966629418

Essex is next week if I win some more Pumas on Tuesday.

You'll need to VIC and MOT it as well so budget for that and haggle me accordingly.

***Finally got round to doing this massive update***
Heres what has happened in all this time as i thought i lost all my pictures but luckily i managed to recover most of them so.......

Some pictures of prepping for when i first painted the gsi kit





Painting













Fitting





















Trial fitted skirts





Genuine irmy rears





































Rust :/





Plated



Arch rot













GM panel



Cutting out













inner arch skin was rot too :/



New panel welded into place



How we left it for that day





Had to plate up the inner arch best we could







Decided to bond the mating faces of the replacement arch for minimum distortion









Spotwelded



Sound deadning removed



Back home



Took the holes back to bare metal where the arch clips go as there was a little bit of surface rust there





Started sorting dents! Lecturer helped me metal finish them so no filler









Also forgot i welded and dewipered the boot







Sorted last of the dents/scratches and the sills







Primed the areas that needed doing





All rubbed down and sealed ready for paint





And painted













However just my luck the paper from one of the windows peeled off whilst the car was drying and landed in the paint







OMP wheel





OMP seats





Jamex coilovers



Stripped



Coppergreased



Colour coded handles



I then repainted the side the paper fell in but another boy in my class painted before me and didnt clean the gun out thoroughly so i now have small flakes of silver in this side hopefully get it repainted next year!



So thats pretty much it! Purchased a new flocked dash that i need to fit off "sean" and a digi dash and some new wheels but waiting on funds for tyres and stuff!
