As you may have noticed by the fuel cap there was some black splatter marks and the rear door shuts were in a bad way, so one saturday afternoon i thought id try and make it look abit better. My initial plan was to paint the whole car panel by panel with arosol and after that afternoon i realised id just make the car look worse, so now ive decided that paint will wait untill shes off the road and i can do it properly with 2k paints. Heres what i did that day

I did have a pic of the end result but i have no idea were it went. The job was neat and tidy but i later found that spilt fuel just ate straight into the paint

Also i found a full stainless exhaust with a 4" outward tip on ebay and that was mine for 66 quid so the manky jap can is now gone. Sorry no pics.

One day on ebay i stumbled across a full leather interior going cheap and the selker willing to post so an email asking a buy it now price was sent. 270 posted was the reply, so i snapped it up, although not mint a damn site better that the shoddy glx interior currently fitted and with a trip to the isle of wight looming i had to have it!
