awesum to drive cant fault engine n drive spot on
got plenty of ideas few:

• carbon fibre wrapping
• ktr coilover kits
• detailing

• sport ht leads + sparks
• sorting cosmetic problems
• respray spoiler black
• respray side strips body colour n bullets silver

Lovely colour you have mate, seems like a bit of a bargain too!

Plans sound good, although if your going to paint the spoiler i would get it colour coded instead of black

 

[matt172]

yeh is proper bargin yeh im think colour code spoiler or carbon wrap it not to sure yeh i love the colour i travelled 100+ miles to get it plus it was bargain n has 50664 on clock

Has it had cambelt changed ect?

Have't seen a spoiler wrapped in carbon so can't comment on how it will look..

I know subtle things like badges look very smart though

 

[matt172]

yeh same here nah no cambelt as usually on need combelt done round 65-70k

 

[MK3]

Still planning on painting it orange?
