| well i picked up an oak green front bumper at the weekend and a single wiper, colour coded electric mirrors, electric windows and new alarm all coming in the next week or so. plans have been going round like crazy trying to decide what to do with her. usual vr6/1.8t even a 16V but im gonna stick to my now plans this time and keep her as an 8v. although if everything works how it should its gonna be a pretty mental 8v. lets put it this way its not been done in the uk and im only aware of one other in thats got this done. obviously im not gonna say what yet but if i can work it out then its gonna be pretty special |
