Fire frost is a gorgeous colour, especially when it catches the light. Very nice.

Ok yes I have been through a few and yes I have broken a couple but then I have also saved a couple from being scrapped or broken so it all balances out nicely.

Well better update this thread.
Since the last post the doors have been replaced, along with the arch spat which was well past repair.
Also its had all four discs and pads replaced and two new front tyres.
Cosmetically it does have a few little dints and scratches but hey its an 11 year old car.
Upgrades, its had metal kick plates and a flocked glovebox fitted along with some replacement shocks sporting xpower lowering springs which has closed a little of the arch gap and give a much nicer and tighter ride.
Up next will be polybushing both the front and rear ARB.

Looks miles better!
Does the 180 and 120 use the same ARB's or are they bigger on the 180? Dunno why I am asking, I guess I want to polybush all round too, but not even checked the parts yet....
Also do the lowering springs alone make a good difference, as that is a mod I am looking at in the future?

The shocks were just the standard 180 ones, the springs were already on them and my shocks were on their last legs.
