You can pick up RS turbo calipers and disks for around £60. Think about doing a service to your engine too.. If you look after the engine it will last! I might have some spare ovh parts if your interested so let me know.
As for painting it, dont worry about that too much for now. its really not that hard.. Since spraying my car me and my mate have done a lot of paint jobs. I had the space so it was easy for me, but dont worry mate, all in good time!
Yeah i agree the brakes arent great!! All my money at the moment is being saved so i can pay off my insurance in one go so i can get on with these mods.
I gave the engine a service when i got the car as it was sitting around for 3 months not doing anything,
What parts have you got ? i cant think of anything i need off hand but itd be good to know if you do end up having anything.
Not too worried about the spraying at the moment wanna get the body work sorted. ill take some pictures of all the random paint scratches. Whoever had it before thought itd be a good idea to make it better with welll it looks like bloody nail varnish!
