Just had the cambelt and water pump done.

Right here are afew pics of my boot build were currently working on



The box is all fitted into the car and subs are mounted. Currently doing the covers that will sit over the subs and painting them same colour as the car. I have a little plan for the covers so you will have to wait and see











And thats about it at the moment !

Plans for 2010 are

*New discs and pads all round
*Full service
* New Rims
* Finish boot build
*Enjoy !!! And take to all the shows this year

I will update when i get some new goodies
