    Close to cool :)

    if it were mine, I'd get the front bumper painted up properly, ditch the shit hanging off it and remove all the stickers.

    me and 2 other mates compared the saloon, coupe and compact side by side. front end of the compact is a inbred of parts from the saloon and coupe :smash:
    saloon is damn long = pimp :smokin:
    pretty jokes that the coupe is shorter wheelbase :wack:

    Just bought a rear strut brace, poly engine mounts and hard poly subframe bushes. Should come soon and will update [​IMG]

    meanwhile the exhaust is nearly finished and invincible
    just sourcing a tip now

    this weekend, gonna sand down whats left of the sound deadening and paint it black then put seats back in. roll cage may be put on hold or might not even do it. or just do a half cage in the rear... just want to drift at the mo [​IMG]
