Whats with the 2 different number plates ?

Are you fitting a bodykit ?

 

have you still to put the skirts and arches on??

 

im guessing his name is jason
the back is way to high get sum lowered springs in there!!

 

love it m8t but drop but not to much!

 

cheers for the comments everyone
i have 2 different plates at the minute as i dont know whether to put the private plate on or keep the original,the cars a 1.3 with turbo motor in so i think it may go on a q plate
she already is lowed,koni shocks at -25mm springs,they may not have settled at the back yet since i put her back together with the new suspension

im just refitting the standard bodykit to her
heres a quick picture of the underside with the new shocks and springs

 

Nice mate.
What colour is that??

 

Dont put it on a Q whatever you do, you have a V5 yeah???

If so, just send it off to to the DVLA with a new engine capacity ie 1598 or whatever it is and a new engine number oh and if its changed colour, that too

 

thats realy nice mate, love the wheels and colours you have chose for the underside

 

cheers people
im unsure of the actual colour,i thought it was imperial blue but according to the guy who sprayed her its something different,ill try and find out.
