1st of all i took my dials apart , fitted silver rings, blue led lighting and painted the needles red

then a lucky find led me to purchasing at ultimate dubs some mk3.5 cabby jap spec stubby mirrors (wooooo)

after getting the covers painted and spending ages grinding bits off the back of them they are fitted!!

it looks like a shedder ;) rich....give me the seats and we say no more ;)

What mods you got planned mate? anything thats not top secret?

he he he...

nothing top secret mate, got air con to fit - still gathering bits to do it, wheels need a refurb as they are looking pretty manky now, and probably going to get a new grille bonnet and lights as they are all stonechipped to the max (and the metal lower part of the grille is going rusty :o )

i didn't take the pics, my mate did them as he wanted practice with the lights.

they were taken at about 10 - 10.30 at night on tuesday. this is what happens when the big lights dont flash, just the little one inside the car!! don't look quite so good really!!!!
