can i ask how u did the custom front grill, did u cut out the existing grill and use to the frame with ur own mesh .

[Phoen1x]

Cheers guys

Aaronv - yeh mate, with the bottom one bought a second hand grill and hacked it up and put mesh in it, doesnt sit in properly at the moment though, will be probably taking my bumper off and trying to re do it a bit better. as for the top one just cut grill to same shape as stock grill, doesnt sit quite right but looks ok

[fuzzy2308]

Forgot to mention that I had a MACE CAI on order, arrived the otehr day, fitting was a little bit fiddly but all good. Also painted engine cover, photo dont do it justice

looks good man. did u do the boot ???

[Phoen1x]

Yeh I did, im yet to finish it off with a beauty board across the whole thing, still deciding on whether I want to show the amps or not, and what to use. Ill get some better pics up in the near future, I did all the audio myself.

[Phoen1x]

Yeh, floor still comes up at the front, not as much as usual but you can still get the spare tyre up.

Cool cool, u'll figure something out, this is my 3rd boot install in this car, first two consisted of an amp on each side and two subs facing out, with a false floor I build. pleanty of room in these boots to work with

[Lukey_VZ]

[IMPLSV6]

Nice car mate. Just curious, how much dynamat did you use for your stereo instal? Working out costs of what my stereo is going to cost and want to know how much to use as i have never used it before. Cheers

[Phoen1x]

Wow, havent been on here for a while, thanks for the comments guys. Engine cover was done with high temp caliper paint.

IMPLSV6 - not sure how much all up coz it already had some on it when I bought it, but I added about 1/4 bulk pack to each door plus almost the rest on the rear parcel shelf. only had 2 sheets left I think

Not much has changed on this in a year, got rid of my stereo coz i needed the mony, but am looking at redoing it again soon

Added black side indicators, painted calipers, also painted the radiator cover a darker black to match. Front grills are back in and all black, front bumper needs fixing up still

Ordered some Red LED tubes for interior and exterior, weill defs be puttin the interior ones in, little bit unsure bout undercar ones yet, probably will tho.

Looking at getting some 18" Fox R6 Wheels soon when I can afford them

Few pics after i cleaned her
