i actually really like the wheels that are on it. Get rid of the bodykit and drop it a bit and it will be looking really good.

Lookin forward to the updates :thumb:
I was at the store the other day and a JDM hatch parked next to me, like he was bragging. I didnt have my camera with me or i would have taken a pic, it was one of the nicest ive seen. Cant wait till winter is over and i get a chance to work on my car some too, i have all sorts of plans for it.

updates peoples, pics will follow when we get some sunlight at weekend

full bodykit is off except for bonnet at the moment as i had to stop working on it due to lack of daylight (gets dark by 4pm lol) and the temperature is bloody cold!!! think it was -3 last saturday :S

found rust in the sills and rear arches :x ,looks like a lot of work is coming my way :( but it will be worth it :)

anyway the bits... wings replaced , front bumper , rear bumper

still have skirts to fit and bonnet this weekend

and the wheels are rota slips wich are in pretty good condition ;)

long awaited update!!!

RIGHT WHERE DO I START?? got a b16a2 jdm engine that needs overhauling to go in , rear disc conversion from a vti , rear anti roll bar , standard bonnet fitted , black interior removed to be cleaned up , wheels removed to be refurbished and new tyres put on , rear arches ordered and garage coming tomorro to see for prices on the sills and arches repaced and a bit prep work and maybe spray job?

when everything is coming along i dont know :? as money has been low as i had an accident in my ek , just a scrape... pics up in the morning as it's on my drive and have 2 weeks off work holiday so pics will be done

thanks for following the thread, hoolio
