Well here she is, After writing my B off picked this up last week and am well chuffed with it.
Few things need tidying up such as the lacquer peel where the 'Comfort' badge used to be, carpets are a bit wet but i think I know which grommit has been knocked out so shouldnt be a problem and just a general rennovation of the paint and the bits the previous owner sprayed himself (grille, and wheels i think)
If anyone could tell me the colour that would be tops
Plans are:
German style pressed plates
nice set of alloys, maybe speedlines or 1.2s
irmscher backbox if i can find one not at stupid fucking money
facelift front end maybe
HID Kit
Aero Wipers
Wind deflectors
any ideas,comments, criticisms welcome as usual

speedlines don't work on c's

Nice back box. You should clean and dress the tyres as well I think as against the black wheels they let it down a bit. Heatgun or bumper black would help too on the bumper trim I think.

Nice I think my car needs a wash just as much as yours by the looks of it lol. I like those Irmscher exhausts, they seem to suit nearly every car that has one.
