Alright kie long time no speak!

The pics for how your car is gonna look for pvs looks good. Hopefully this year i should be there (depends which weekend it is (as getting it off from work)), can see it in person and vice versa.

I've gotta say i like the green wheels. Makes it stand out more. Although i think you could do with something green on the front end somewhere, to complement the wheels.

Think the graphics down the side looks really good.

Get somebody to weld it mate, saves you having to take it for a retest. Garage will prob charge a fair bit for welding too.

tarrr guys. shes still a right state though needs abit of tlc . but glad it running now was loosing interest init , gunna try and get sumone with a welder to borrow it me but will need a 30cm-5cm plate just to cover it . other than that the rest of the car is in good order :)

how easy would you think it would be to swap a rear window. ive got the old tailgate still that has the tinted window . not sure what would be cheaper ( swap over or just get rear window tinted. .

will get video up of the car running sounds really nice . the new engine is alot better shape than the old one was.

awsome, i think probly easyer just to get ur new window tinted, if u end up breaking the glass or damaging ur new boot u wont be happy.

bin in the garage checking everything over for its mot when i take it to get done. while doing this ive give the engine a lil clean nothing drastic just a wipe. and painted me strut brace ( as it was rusty and not nice ) so painted that yellow to go with all yellow bits on engine. also touched up the rocker cover as got scratched when fitting.

best panel filter i think GREENCOTTON

then put bumper back on . but ideally could do with a new one as its bit of a mess
