From the looks of it I think the colour is 'Mist Green Silver'.
Check the code on your firewall and look it up.

good luck with the mods to come! she looks nice and clean!

**SHANBANGER** · 29-03-2009, 04:22 PM

Gave it a bit of a wash today, just sprayed it with a hose to get all the dust off it. Needs a good cut and polish though.

**SHANBANGER** · 03-04-2009, 04:43 PM

Removed the rear seats and gave them a good clean and they came up great. Job for this weekend is to remove the front seats, clean them and clean the carpet underneath.

yeah i wanna put superlows all round on it. Still saving up for them though. Still at school with only a part time job so im pretty short on money. Got any ideas on how much it would cost for superlows with some good shocks fitted?

Just rewired the front drivers side speaker and installed some 6" Kicker KS600 195W speakers for the front. Sounds much better than the crappy 30W factory speakers
