ok, heres quick write up of whats been done to it since ive owned it, its not much of a write up but it'll do :lol:

Brought it on the 14th of march 2010 for £750, 1.6L, v reg (1999) 99,000 miles on the clock, 3 owners from new (including me)

This is what it was like when i brought it:







The first thing i did was put my cd player in it (this is the only pic i have of it )



Then i decided to do a simple boot build, using MDF



Then a H.I.D kit, sorry for the crap pic, its the only one i have lol



Then i brought a cheap gear knob off ebay lol



Then i decided it was time to clean the engine bay up a little bit and fit a cone filter, so it goes from this



To this



Next on the list was to fit a single backbox, but, as funds were low i decided to make the twin exhaust off my old calibra fit





Then for christmas i got a nice new shiney induction kit and fitted it on boxing day, please ignore the rather burnt heat sheild lmao



Then i had the rear windows tinted









I got offered a 2000 watt twin sub for £30, so, out came the boot build and in with the new sub



ignore the dirtyness lol

then i built my 6x9 speakers into the boot, the carpetings not that great but doesnt matter as im gonna be re-carpeting the entire boot at some point







Then i started on my little LED project, theres LEDs in front and rear foot wells, both doorcard pockets and vents, dashboard vents and boot (12 LEDs in total











next on the list is:

New cd player
Alloy wheels
Tinted rear lights
Smoked side repeaters
Angel eye headlights
Single exhaust
Shark wing spoiler
F2 EVO front bumper

As time goes on im sure ill think of more things to do lol
