a few updates

Post by wullie »

well folk jus been lookin through some of my old post and realised i hadnt updated on how the car sits so heres some fresh pics.
i had this at the start of the year it was a gls with a 2ltr ecotec, went like stink till it caught fire :(

heres how my black cav ended up nearly in the scrapper till my white one caught fire and i revived her.
Image
Image

and as she sits jus now, i've put the turbo doorcards in that i had lying about for at least 2yrs
Image
Image
Image
Image
finally got round to sourcing a set of gsi slabs for her aswell, and got the gsi rear bumper fitted to her
Image
Image
getting my 17"s refurb'd and sprayed white then getting the slabs recon'd back to standard,
hopeyou's enjoy the progress :cheers

there out off a cav turbo m8 front and rear bench the rear was a bit tricky as i had to cut away the foam in the middle of the bench where mine rise's up but there as comfy as to sit in and wi the foam cut in the back you sink into the bench which is nice.

aye m8 well spotted i just screwed it in to the wee cubby hole where the rear ashtray is m8 it's not the best fitted in the world but well comfy and looks the biz with the leather interior, i really need to get it out and fitted properly.
cheers for the comments guys :cheers
