yeah footwell neons are under the dash, there just in car neons from ebay about 7 quid a pair come with a switch, can look up a link if you like?

thanks, yeah i used to be a fan of that jap style stuff, and now im debatin on goin slightly euro style, i mean i got a gsi kit thats goin on it, which isnt OTT but makes it look a bit nasty, got a flushed boot goin on, and then hopefully black alloys funnily enough mate, im hopin mines gonna look a little like yours =]

biiggg progress lately, heres a list of things done,
angel eyes on, square plate and debadged grille on...

but the things to do:
spray and tyre up my cav slabs (L), get my smooth boot sprayed fitted, drop it 40-60 mm, gsi skirts fitted this tuesday, gsi bumper with facelift grille fitted the tuesday after and then hopefully go about the bad boy bonnet (ANYONE SELLIN/MAKIN THEM LET ME KNOW!) and then start saving for the back bumper (Y)

heres some newer pictures:
Image
New lights and grille on =]

Image
not so keen on this plate on this bumper, but they look pretty mean on a GSI kit ;)...the gsi badge isn't there for good yet, will be once i get the bigger engine

Image
nice smoothed over panel with tinted window, needs spraying...obviously lol

Image
nice chunky munky cav slabs, putting brand new diamondback 145 50 15s all round and glossin um black

Image
the rear end at the moment, selling the exhaust soonish, and need to tint the windows

will get more pictures once the kit goes on. hopefully gonna get some professionally done by a mate of mine =]
