thx here are the interior shots. im not to happy with it so im prob going to change it all soon when i get some $$$. i was going to remove the side moulds but i dnt want the paint to rip off and i dont want someone to smack into my car doors (alittle protection is better than none) and i got them painted for free, but i am starting to think about aero door molds i think they would look fair sick. yeah im looking for some of those tail lights but i am trying to find some with clear reflectors as well.

That is one sick looking car you have there. Have you got any plans for the interior?

cool, interiors clean, thats a start, lots of potential to be had. i see where you're coming from on the door moulds. but if you go aero door moulds, go the rest of the kit, other kits just look strange with aero doors i reckon. the lights with clear reflectors, i think is just from fading, so if you can find a good set at the wreckers that are faded would be the way to go.

i recon it would look alrite with that kit mabey change the side skirts though if i cant get them to work with the aero door moulds. yeah i think they r faided although i hav seen some around that dont look like they hav faded.

I thought the ecotecs always had the getrag 5 speed behind them, not the T5? i personally prefer the T5, if i can find one with an ecotec pattern, i'll get it
