Fitted HID Kit, and i love it

Bought new Front Brakes 280mm ST24 brakes with EBC grooved disks and greenstuff pads at a bargin price.

Also resevered a 260mm Rear Brake upgrade along with a polybrushed rear beam.

after 4 long hours of cursing and swearing finally got my matt black dash in, along with my suede steering surround :)

also took out the carpet and gave that a wash and a hoover, and in the process found £4 :Q

picking up door cards on thursday from the flocking man, then spending friday swapping them over and giving the car a tcut wash wax polish :)

dont think ill have my new wheels and seats done for fitp :(

if i get time i shall lower the car by another 20mm but dont think i will have time.

*cough* f**k me!

slight overkill ont he brakes there mate lol

umm, whats to come of them old cross-drilled and groove discs mate?

if your selling them id be VERY happy to take them off your hands, its perfect timing (they 240mm right? :P )

my new Si's discs are past it and i was gonna get 260's but these would have the same effect and i can leave my calipers alone :D

lemme know in a PM mate :Q

loving the sound of a respray, get it properly dewipered at the same time :aviator:

same colour i presume?
