Hey, had the car for a year now so thought it was about time i sorted it out.
Already done:
K&N cone, with cold air feed.
GSi front bumper.
Painted arches.
Full alpine sound system.
Green dash lights
Soundproofed front foot wells and all of the rear.
Cavalier alloys.
To do, eventually:
Get a gsi grill, and skirts.
Wire up front fogs properly.
Repaint bonnet.
Bigger brakes
Smooth and paint arches and rear bumper.
1.6 16v engine
and maybe some angel eyes
Sorry but this will be a slow one, being a student doesnt leave u with alot of spare cash.
Does any1 hav a GSi grill they wana sell me?

Looks well but that bumper doesnt go with the red strips in my eyes, its either one or other

I'd get GSI skirts and get rid of the red and go stealth with it!

nah, definatly keeping the gsi bumper, got some gsi replica skirts but they r fibreglass and not great, wood prefer originals.
i'll take of the strips at some point and see how it looks.

Heres the boot lock surround on the car with the badge, happy with how it turned out but now it shows up the rest of the car lol
As u can see, i did something a bit different with the badge.
