What would look awesome would be cheap leather / vynal in black to replace the material

i think that may be too much black tho. i was thinking silver, but maybe a felt/suede type material.

picked up 3/4 of a tickford bodykits yesterday for $100, just missing the front lip. i'll undercoat them then fit them and that should get me off my a*** to paint the rest of the car!

replaced the rear shocks and front struts today (prick of a job they are!) and its a different car to drive. now i need a wheel alignment and hopefully it'll pass a roadworthy in a couple of weeks so i can finally put it in my name! and back to A1 gas and mechanical this weekend hopefully to finish off my tune, as we had to cut short due to programmer issues and it being 11.30pm. if anyone needs to tune their t.i j3 i recommend Marco. PM me through here and i can work out a decent price for you.

well the car went in for rwc on tuesday and failed due to damage to the floor pan. looks like someone has tried to jack it up in the wrong spot.

also someone had cut out the parcel shelf to fit the 7x10's in, so to save spending money either paying someone to fix it or trying to find someone who would pass it, i found a 96 ef futura cheap, that i'll transfer all my good bits onto. only problem is its an auto, so my t5 will be coming out and i'll do a manual conversion to it in a few weeks.

i exhaust over today as the one it had on it had major leaks, also changed the rear springs and shocks over as they were way too low. found they had just took to the standard springs with an angle grinder.

Sucks it didn't pass RWC, the futura looks alright though.. Well apart from the backyard lowering job lol But seriously who would think angle grinding the springs would be a good idea?

Its a pain in the a** because it hides so much visual inspection wise but I think its a road worthy thing as its designed to protect retards from the belts and fans... I think

Yeah now i just have to repaint my body kit and fit it, put my head and cam on it, and extractors and cat. And my diff eventually Ill run it on the dyno on monday just to get a baseline figure. Im still undecided on whether or not to do the manual conversion or just sell it to get some cash.
