Not sure wat else to smooth lol,
Its all painted in engine bay now just on look out for c20xe at a resonable price.
Also thinking of wat do with interior, if colour colde inside black and blue?
Prob put 1 sub in boot and may mount a amp on each rear interior panel and maybe a speaker build on doors?
not to sure as of yet.
Also trying find a descent smooth look bumpers to use, may stick with standard 1s.

Engine bay is now all painted and looking shinny.
Looking for a Redtop if any1 can help, as it will b stripped n bored out etc and paintd up b4 going in.
Bumpers now smoothed just smoothing the number plate reasess.
May fill the lower grill on front bumper but not sure if will affect engine over heating?

pricer has one for sale i think, and youd be better off letting as much air into the engine bay as possible, itl cool it down alot better and the engine wont be sucking in all the hot air from the engine
