Looks nice, Craig. This car has been through more wardrobe changes than Liberace.

Craig I've got a set of standard 15's for when you decide to go fully standard :lol:

I love the OEM look, very understated, but seems a shame when you got the modified look going so well!

Too old now? :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Jim, yeah I was, and very nearly ordered one from KO the other night, but decided against it, as I much prefer twin exit exhausts on the mk2.

Mr Dale! As awesome as the Apexi GT is, as above, I prefer twin exit exhausts. Standard - yeah does look good. Your car is certainly testament to that!

Stock 15s.....no thanks, I hate the stock wheels.

I've now got other things to prioritise and unfortunately the car comes last. I bought the stock parts on a wimb as they were cheap. I'm not even 100% on going back to stock yet....The parts can just stay in the garage rafters till I decide what to do. So undecided I am what to do with the car, I had thoughts last night of leaving it modified and throwing a Bomex Drift wing on it!!

I reckon it's all driven by boredom.

Yeah, I've spent a fair bit on the car, but I enjoy it and never did it to capitalise. It puts a smile on my face when I take it out for a blast. What I've spent on it doesn't play on my mind. It's just a hobby and being a car enthusiast.

Nope :mrgreen:

Right....

After considering (at length!) whether to put the car back to stock, ive decided against it. This is for 2 reasons:

1) the expense involved to do it, only to then decide later on I don't like it and start looking for another bodykit! :roll:

2) the stock Rev 3 front lip I ordered from a guy off here, the courier didn't even attempt to deliver it and sent it back to the seller, so I got a refund on it.

A while ago I sold my carbon boot lid and replaced with a stock black boot lid. It was always my intention to get the boot lid painted as it is painted in 20+ year old 202 black and my car was fully resprayed in 2014.

As I'm keeping the bodykit on the car, I decided the Rev 3 spoiler was a bit tame, so in the box above is a Bomex drift wing:

Which is in keeping with the Border bodykit and Aeroware front lip. I've bought another Rev 3 boot lid and some new spoiler gaskets from Toyota.

The aerial hole is being filled/smoothed, as the aerial hole on my car has been smoothed and painted in favour of a DAB aerial in the windscreen.

Spoiler and boot lid to be painted over winter at some point.
