So here she is so far, not the typical base unit for modifications but given that I do about 500 miles a week its good on the jungle juice!!

First Mod was the obligitary wheel change from steelies to alloys...... 15" Fox Race Twin 5 spokes
Image

Added a set of Ring Rally Giant Spot Lights (only a temporary mod)
Image

Then came clear rear lenses (didn't like the 5 dr lexus lights)
Image

And clear side repeaters with crome bulbs
Image

More pics to come once I transfer them from my phone.

Feel free to tell me your thoughts but please be kind, it's my first time, lol!!

Personal opinion on the lights, they look a bit....over board, but do the improve your night vision?

They are a bit "OTT" but they are just a temporary mod untill I get my Light Pod sprayed. As as I do most of my driving at night they are a great help on the country roads.

Couldn't agree more mate but I don't want to spend a lot of time making the wires tidy untill I have finished my ICE Plans, I am planning on adding a second set of 6x9's and possibly looking at 1 or 2 subs, haven't decided yet, lol!! Thanks anyway!! :thumbs:
