    also, tossing up between trim or car stereo.

    Hey, sorry to hear about what your "mate" did to your car, glad to hear he's at least paying up to repair the physical damage.
    Where are you getting the HID's? Not sure if I totally understand your intention, were you getting HID's to go with Altezza front lights?
    Did genuine clubsports have mesh in the front bar? I've got a vxII acclaim with a full clubby kit on it, and I was never quite sure about whether the mesh looked right.... Also have the Altezza headlights but they are little average in the light department, even with the "blue" 55w globes in them.
    Hope you can be back in your vu asap, I wrote off my first car earlier this year and was 2 months driving mums car around, damn that sucked balls lol

    money well spent i reckon

    haydz:

    no sub? pfffffft lol. im looking at getting some components with tweeters, a little 10" between the seats and 2 amps. should be fun. =]

    jofes:

    thanks mate. i'm just gonna buy some HID's from ebay and stick them in the altezza's - my mate bought some for his integra and they are bright as, they also reflect off road signs etc from a mile away. atm I have blue xenon's with my stock headlights and the visibility is absolutely terrible. i believe the clubby bars didnt have mesh but i just wanted to add a little contrast.

    i've been driving my mum's car for a week and it's getting to be too much already haha.
