hey everybody

just a quick update of sorts, havnt done any mods to speak of, however the right hand side rear quater pannel is now screwed. i was parked in a carpark, having some lunch at a maccas when another p plater who was parked next to me just decides to swing straight into my car. from the first quote i have got, looks like $1200 damage, but she had insurance so thats all good. funny thing is that she only had her p's for 3 days, so talk bout a good way to start.

will post some pics later on, with hopefully some good news on the repairs

Nice and clean! Doubt your still rolling with whatever the stock power was dude, not after 181XXX km's. Not far off though ;)

Any major plans?

ýeah mate got a few plans, but main plan is to just get it fixed first.
