very very nice.only tiny thing i think needs cleaning up is the modified front grill.
up close in pics it looks a bit messy.if this was made bang on,id say it was near enough perfect.

I like it 
, the only reason you can see yourself in pics is because the paintworks so clean so thats a good thing. I agree with rest about the lights, perhaps smoke tinted would suit it a lot better

looks good, i liked the feature of it in fastcar with the other ka, must admit i deffinatly preffer yours
the back lights need to be smoked a bit though, and the wheelwhores sticker doesnt suit it imo, or it needs to be at a slight angle, so the bottom is pointing to the corner of the window
absolutly love the exhaust though, and how smooth it is

Thanks for the comments everyone !!
Ok the rear lights i no dont really work but i sold my smoked ones then went back to std ones for a while then had to swap them over for the clears
the grill does need sorting out its had a few years of stone chips flying at it
the engine i Would like to say its something exciting but its not , have got plans i Would do with it but may never happen got more important things to pay for soon

plans were for the engine to get a exhaust manifold , cam , R1 throttle bodies , custom map and hopefully ported n polished head to make around 150bhp ish be something bit different to putting a 2.0 in there , possibly even a bit quicker not sure

what suspension do you use to get it that low?
what did you have to do to get wheels on?
have you got rear axle spacers on?
nica car gotta agree on rear lights
Got some escos wheels arriving for my Wifes Sport KA, already fitted clear light & similar rear light (her's is silver so matches better) and lowered it on Eibach springs but it not low enough for my liking
