Default BLACK S2 (Front bumper) UPDATE 16.4.06

I posted this pics up last week but they went tits up as it was my frist time at doing this but after some help (big thanks to twins)lets hope they work this time. Right here we go i finished re-shelling it about 8 months ago due to my frist one being rotten all f##king over, I have also put some new clock in that i have had in my room for about 3 or 4 months now due to not having alot of work on my boss let me get my motor in the work shop so i could fit them at last. LETS HOPE THEY WORK THIS TIME



























I JUST HOPE IT HAS WORKED

Thanks for all the comments lads
i was not to sure on the TEAM RS stickers my self they have been on for about 3 months now so its time for them to come off at the weekend. I will get it in at work on saturday and i will remove them and give it a good wax as i'am painting my wheels as i have gone of them being white the paint rep come round to my work and told me about a colour which is on the red bull racing F1 cars so when he told me that a went ordered some with out asking how much it costs it was Ł100 pound a litre , i keep telling my self it will be worth it (i hope so).
The switchs next to the gear stick are one is for the fans(an over ride) one is for the flamer kit and the last is for the boost when i have saved some cash for the cossie managment.
ONCE AGAIN THANK FOR THE COMMENTS KEEP THEM COMING
I WILL GET SOME PICS UP OVER THE WEEKEND OF THE WHEELS PAINTED AND THE CAR POLISHED AND ALL WAXED.

Default BLACK S2(update on wheels 17-3-06)

Right then boys & grils here are some pics of my wheels in there new colour as i was pissed off with them being white so as the wheel colour is going it time for the TEAM RS stickers to go as well. So when the new colour turned up we did not have alot of work on my boss let me get them in the spary booth and get them painted. I hope they look good as the paint cost me alot of fucking money as i said in my last post
so here they are boys & grils
Got the wheels on today and polished and waxed the car to remove were the stickers have been but was to dark to get some good pics of the car so will get some up tomorrowof it




here they are in black as you need to put the colour over black so the paint rep told me had to spend more fucking money

here they are all in base coat









and here is the fucking Ł100 pound a ltr colour

LET ME NOW WHAT YOU THINK OF THEM PLEASE

Thanks for all the comments
I would have got some pics up of the wheels on the car but got up to clean her and found brake fluid all over my drive way
due to a split hose so i had to go and get a new one from ford, good job i work there so i got it nice and cheap.
So i will get it cleaned and some pics posted tomorrow as i got the hose fitted today but it was fucking cold.

I have removed the stickers now and i have to say it looks alot better now with out them. I wish i had got a digital camera when i started the re-shell as i have no pics to show you lot from the start of the build to the finish of it

ONCE AGAIN THANKS FOR ALL THE COMMENTS KEEP THEM COMING

Very nice mate!

What's the intercooler for originally, or was it custom made? (Just wondering about the unequal end tank sizes - I'm guessing it's a twin pass?). How's the rad coping with that - just looks like it's blocked alot of it off!

Loving the look of it with the silver wheels and lack of graphics
