Bit of an update...

Fitted the new tailgate




I have also bought a replacement drivers side door as mine has a dent in it but
Hasn't been fitted yet nor do I have a picture atm

The car has also had bit of a small service change of oil
Oil filter and bought some iridium spark plugs for a change

And also tonight we had changed the cv joint as mine was fooked


Pay day soon so there will be an update within few weeks

well not really an update as such but have done a few bits last week

MOT - had to have track rod end replaced drivers side both ball joints ended up being changed

and also the handbrake needed to be adjusted to get it through the mot...


since then ive bought a few bits which i havent recieved yet but have a few pictures


Backbox



rear bumper fingers crossed alot better than mine




Some GM Mudflaps..




and i should hopefully be swapping my alloys over for some astra gsi blades which will be refurbed when i get the chance/money too



and i have bought a bonnet bra which to be honest im not really a fan of them its just an excuse to hide the poor
spray job and rust for when i go up to fast show


and i have one picture from a local meet which i thought id upload....




thats all for a week or so
