*Factory Fitted Sat-Nav (very rare)

When got this home showed all the family the car proud as punch. (you all know the feeling). I can remember what i said to the missus back then that i was not going to modify this car well soon got the bug and i was off.

At first i bought a brand new RS Front Grille (top) and sold the bad RB one. Then i got my Window tinted by a good friend of my who works in the Graffix business making road signs and stuff, he also tints the windows in office blocks so got him to do the RB smoked tint all round not the cheap sh*te from halfords.

Then was exactly 5 Year old so took her to Birchdown so get the Aux & Cambelt changed also on that visit i bought some Eibach Prolines Springs so steve fitted them for me! Was going to go for the sportlines but the roads round here are awful so didn't wana lower it too much!

Bought myself a cup towing eye from Si waited very patiently for this also got my side repeaters smoked can't remember who did them but was great job only £15 pound that was for the bulb and the plastic case then sold my originals to a lad wanting to go back to standard so got £15 for them happy days.
Then Got Nathj to colour code my Dash strips and gear knob insert.
