Flame Red 1.2 8v LS

Post by B1G5I »

Been on here a while now but finally got the free cash to start doing the work properly so thought i would show the car off a little bit. It is completely standard now but in excellent condition for a '96, and has 70,000 on the clock. Plans are simple and not too outrageous, i am going to lower it 60mm, new back box, black 15" alloys and a decent sound system.

So anyway here is the car as it is:

I will get some better photos that fit properly soon!

Tidy motor! For the time being take your wheel trims off and spray your steelies black, And some autoglym bumper care will get them bumpers back black.

Alloys are waiting to go on just need new tyres! I got bumper stuff but it's having the weather to apply it cause if it rains it just washes straight back off! But cheers guys!
