gave it a clean today, looks so much better
going to paint it soon
colour code the door handles
smooth out the aerial, de look and wiper boot
remove badges and bump strips
debadged grill
depos
smoked/mhw rear lights
smoothed bumpers, deciding on smooth standard or smooth gsi
euro arches getting on tues fingers crossed
graeme hopefully going to do some rolling of me arches if its possible to be done
then going to lower it more on adjustable coiloversas its only 40mm at the moment
then final thing to buy once its all finished is some nice deep dish alloys

what people think of the ideas?
