Well I got bored of my corsa sport and fancied something a bit different, something I dont have to worry about leaving in a car park or worry about potholes. So i bought my frontera bought it completely standard a few months back since then I have,
Removed side steps
Removed plastic bull bar
Removed spare wheel and carrier.
Then lifted the front two and a half inch (not done the back yet:lol
Fitted 265/75/16 mud tyres,
a cb radio and a big aerial
Needed rear brake pads and an alternator belt so did those.
Oil filter,oil, spark plugs, airfilter (done today)
Wont be to everyones taste but I enjoy it.
Sorry for the bad quality pics (and no im not stuck )
Plans are to lift the back, rock sliders and a thick metal back bumper and eventually a front winch.
