when i got the car didnt like the look of the standard wheels so stuck some 17's on it as i was going through the boy racer chav look












decided i wanted to go with a couple of changes on the interior first i changed the gear nob to a richbrook 1 from halfords



and then added a set of blue aparco harnesses with the standard seats
