hi ya guys,
been on here a while now but ive only just joined as a premium member, iv put a few exterior pics of my car on here (interior to come), basically this is my first car and ive just been stung 1600 bucks for my insurance so im gettin there slowly but surely with her!
ive got a peco 3.5 s/s cat back on the way and managed to find a sri interior on ebay for £40
im off to the scrappy 2moz to find an sri spoiler,and looking to get some clear rear lights on her next week!
but the best i got the actual car itself in mint condition 1 owner from new with 70,000 on the clock for the smashing price of £700 so i havent done bad!
its all ready got a pretty good sound system in it with loads more to come .....
so any opinions so far would be more than appreciated!!!
just looking for some guidance as to what other ppl think?!
anyways wicked site keep up the good work boys!
feedback appreciated
cheers

I got sri interior for 40 notes too, quite good price.

An exhaust is an exhaust?
I got a peco backbox, its nothing special but it does the job. Cost £50 fitted roughly.

We used to sell peco where i work, warranty claims would come in on nearly every other one we sold. Also i personally think they sound horrid.
Piper are well screwed together

should do as long as its not too loud. Some places can be a bit awkward.
