Front seats and show cage are now in. When i get back off holiday the c20let conversion will commence. Just havent done anything to it for a month or so and would appreciate some ideas.
Many thanks, Steve

(with regards to the install, i know 6x9's dont really cut it but there are now components in there along with a rockford 4 channel amp. In the 6x9 boxes i am in the process of fitting screens inside...please bare in mind its a home grown install, my first attempt, all covered/trimmed by my mrs)

cheers, rob, with regards to the exhaust, its only a back box atm, purely so i didnt have a pea shooter in that massive rear bumper. I would get a full stainless system done at ASCAR but would it be best to wait for the engine conversion? dont want to spend say £300 just to have most of it changed.
Which rear lights do you think would suit? i had some tinted the same colour as the car but they came out very dark and everything showed red, therefore not legal.
Had an idea about buying some projector headlights and stripping them down, spraying the chrome bits in them the same colour as the car and then putting them back together so from afar it just looks like theres a few rings. Either that or a set a smoked i think....

Personally i'd ditch the VXR badge, and get some smoked DEPO headlights and thats all I would do.

a custom job this.. but would be smart.

Euro Hedlights (the chrome ones with no markings on them..) then paint the chrome bit same colour as the car.
