Change of heart I will keep the exterior pretty much standard

And I will give it a wax and such on Sunday and post more pics

I shall call it the :devil: red devil :devil: so if you see this coming run away....lol


Edit

And I think I might carbon wrap the defuser at the back and the only thing I don't like is the momo gear knob so might get a zs one and the wood effect so the first mod list is created

Yep, I've got some straights! Think I might have a targa glass bag aswell somewhere from when I had a coupe!

Looks a cracking car bud but couldn't have a car that colour! One of my biggest regrets is getting rid of my coupe turbo!

Hey guys thanks for the comments guys I think I will have a look at different alloys as I don't want them massive but I think I'll need to see them on a car first maby a bit of photoshopping cause I like the kei force 10 aswell so need to have a look about first

Nice ---

Were those pics taken when it was at the sellers ?

Reason I ask is that there looks to be a Mk2 ZS solar red hatch in them. Long shot maybe, but the guy I sold my mk2 red hatch to, collected it with his son who was into his Rover coupes and has a red vvc....

Nice looking car Corey just don't drive it as if you are in forza you can't turn damage off when heading to meets

Nice car mate. The coupe still has such road presence.

Yep, I've got some straights! Think I might have a targa glass bag aswell somewhere from when I had a coupe!

Did you get the glass bag with it? If not definately get this from fordie as it is a must.

Looks a cracking car bud but couldn't have a car that colour! One of my biggest regrets is getting rid of my coupe turbo!

One of my regrets is not rebuilding my turbo after it exploded for the second time!

coreygraham180
13-03-11, 08:37 AM
Yes I have the targa bag I made sure I got it off the seller
