Hi everyone I've been a member of this forum for a few months now and I thought I would start making some changes to my car.

I've had the car since May and love the car!

These are some recent pictures as I didn't get any from when I collected her.

I have started with a few mods already.

Over the last week or so a few things have come in the post, so might be a little busy!

Also got some frozen white paint and other stuff to spray the inserts to match the car.

Just put all my DMB overlays on which I have had for a while and they look great also have all the wheel centres aswell but I am getting a wheel resprayed soon as it's flaking :(

While I was there I aslo changed my single bulb interior light for a three bulb one, and added the blue LEDs which are awesome at night.

That's all I've done so far if there is anymore progress I will upload more pictures.

Will hopefully get my back windows tinted at the end of the month and maybe a milltek exhaust.

Looking forward to seeing the tints mate, how dark are you going? Ive got 35% on mine i rrckon its dark enough,

Also looking forward to seeing the grill when complete,

DMB's look fantastic,

Shame about the rim, best to have it sorted before winter though, water gets in to cracks in the enamel frost comes, water expands when frozen causes flaking of the paint, worst type of rims to enjure this are chrome, look like broken glass,

  • Author

Thanks mate, I've got all the grill painted and on the car I just can't get a good picture in the rain!

Will also get a pic of the night breakers and my philips extreme vision side lights in the dark.

Yeah getting that wheel sorted at the end of the month, with my tints as well. I was thinking 20% light to come through or just going limo black which is light 5% or something.

Will get some more pictures up as soon as possible.

Also got some pics of the night breakers, and philips extreme vision sidelights, also had 5 minutes at work the the other day to fit the Led fog lights, but they aren't the best pictures as again they are in the garage. (Will upload better ones when I am back of holiday). Thought I would add a quick interior light one as well haha. post-55241-140821579251_thumb.jpgpost-55241-140821580199_thumb.jpg

When I brought the car, It didn't have the proper mats (should be able to see in some of the first pics). So when some come up on eBay thought I would get them. post-55241-14082159069_thumb.jpg

Is this easy to do as I want to change mine to a red led but didn't know whether it was difficult to do.

Yeah mate only a 2 minute job.

All you need is a flat head screw driver. There is like a little gap to push the flat head into then it just unclips out.
