new pics stage two nearly finished
After 2 weeks of hassle (see other thread) its nearly how i want it it still needs finshing of tho atleast its the right colour this time
I may go out next week and buy a polisher then i can do it in my own time and get how i want it. I still needs a bloody good mop over still. The bloke just rushed it i wont be going back in a hurry me thinks
now on to stage 3 - rip my stereo out and re install it. Think about going 2/3 way active frontend and a custum sub inclosure in the rear 1/4 trim. I am still working on the display interface and hopefully if all goes to plan i will be fitting a steering wheel with audio controls aswell if anyones intrested i will put a thread up.

Re: new pics stage two nearly finished
i want to keep the car standard looking all i may do is change the headlights to some smoked depo ones. Was toying with lowering it 30-35 mm but the main jounery i do i must go over 20-30 speed bumps so it wont be pratical
i am now mainly going to work on the interor with a decent sound system whats going to be hidden so the car will look standard inside got a few other toys to go in aswell what will be hidden aswell. got a few projects in mind at the mo
i have worked out the rear electric windows in theory just got to get the bits together for that. Steering wheel with audio controls as i said above is in the pipeline.Then its just the full closure and deadlocking to sort out and a few other bits

that bonnet looks very good just make sure the edges are reinforced
also offer it up to your car minus all fixings see if it clears the headlights
