Right got loads to update... ill start with the bad news, i refurbed the nova alloys they looking nice and very close too caliper aswell thou and they are buckled soo badly that im going to scrap them and after having enough of buckled alloys deciding on to do some anthracite steelies next, heres alloys anyway...

Next sold body kit and on with stadard front for now and got some gsi skirts

Also removed 4-1 manifold and put in 4-2-1 and got some performance HT leads (blue vacuum pipes will be swapped for black ones)
and also got some front and rear lowering springs, only pic of fronts thou...

finally starting wiring for fogs, taking them from headlight to a separate switch on centre console, and also now painted the gsi front bumper & skirts, will have more pics of them weekend...
