I had said to a mate a month beforehand that i was going to do it then saw grilles alone are worth $300 odd, and out of chance i was browsing Gumtree not long ago and saw it for $100

Thanks mate, she's getting there

I have been trying to sell a complete front end where I am for $200 but people just dont know what they are worth up here, the cars looking good man

So i forgot to do an interior update.

I recently tried plasti dip. In my personal opinion it is awesome stuff. I did my door handles and cargo area trims , and it adds a unique touch. Only problem is i have had to touch up the door handles again as daily use wears away at the PD.

So, i pulled my exhaust and mufflers off the other weekend because my car was loud as f**k and I think i found out why.

Also anout 3 months ago, got Billet strut covers and some headlight cover clamps (coz i love polishing metal)

And finally, got my exhaust tip put on, YAY more metal to polish

Oh yeah, also scored some free Calais seats with no tears or rips.

Update for 29/8/ 13

I sprayed my undercarriage a few months ago. Thinking i bought matte black i went at it like crazy. I came out later that day and saw a shine and thought it hadn't dried... No i bought gloss. *Facepalm*

So i did something i always wanted the other day. I was at home, bored and had 3 cans of silver, 1 can of satin black.

So i sprayed my fuel tank :

Also , i decided i wanted white mirrors after cutting and polishing my black ones... I set out to find some, found a set on gumtree.. $80. Went on Facebook groups and didn't find any. So i decided , "screw it, it cant hurt to ask if anyone had any" .
SUCESS. a guy had a set he didnt advertise he was gunna throw out $30, but they had overspray from purple paint.
Got 'em home, cut n polished and colour correction (Auto Glym- Good stuff) and They come up perfect.
