Well, this is my 2nd car and i have owned it now for approximately a month, when i first bought it its was close to looking like this .....
I removed the lexus lights it came with and fitted the smoked ones you can see there and also fitted the front smoked depo lights. I wasnt keen on the interiour either and got hold of a calibra leather one and fitted that
It was on 14" softstars and lowered 60/40 on gmax springs and shocks but i didnt really like the wheels and i wanted it lower but i didnt want to go for aftermarket wheels on this car so i bought a set off cavalier fan blades and painted them myself
and i also lowered it more at the back approx 90mm!! and got 195 45 15 tyres fitted to the rims just after christmas, and this is how its looking now ....
Also added a little red 16v sticker to the bottom right hand corner of the boot lol
Future plans are coilovers, black door cards, gsi front bumper and maybe skirts,semi smooth boot, badboy bonnet, rear windows tinted and i may be getting my hands on a redtop soon aswell
Also forgot to mention it had big silly sideskirts on it when i bought it which i didnt like at all especially with having stanrard bumpers so i removed them and caramel wheeled all the sealent off the door and as you can see in the piks theres a couple of little bits of rust i need to sort just under where the skirts were fitted !
Hope you like it ill keep this updated as things progress !!

Looks good as it is, i'd leave it, pre-97 bunpers look cool. Just sort out the patches of rust, you keeping the center caps off?

looks tidy that, rare colour too?
I'd remove the drivers side wing to check for damage; it's definitely been replaced at some point

Thanks guys! with regards to the center caps i only have 3 at the moment so have decided to leave them off for now! i quite like them without to be honest, i think they look a bit plain with them on! the drivers side wing has definately been done as i can feel the overspray inside the engine bay!
yeah i will come and say hello next time i see you down the rock !!
