I'll post some pics as soon as I get her washed!

The interior is immaculate, mechanically great with only 141,000km when I bought her, although the exterior has a few dings here and there. I don't mind though...it's the perfect platform car for mods!

Having already played around with a CD5...and messed around with heaps of other cars...I'm pretty sure I know what I want to do with this one, and I'm gonna go all out! Either the best or not at all.

My priority mods in order of preference will be:

* New suspension with front/rear sway bars
* 18/19" dished rims! I had 17" dishes on the CD5 and they looked so puny...
* Cold air intake. I had a short ram intake on the CD5 and although it sounded nice, I think there was a fair bit of heat soak occurring...sucked in summer.
* Stainless steel headers (If I dedide the car will stay N/A)
* Full stainless steel exhaust from the block back. I'm tempted to just chuck on a muffler in the mean time but I prefer to get it done properly.

Then there are the little details...

* Clear side markers
* Clear/smoked bumper lights
* New front + rear lights if I can find anything non-ricer and maybe some HIDs
* CD5 or aftermarket grille
* PU front lip (learnt my lesson with fibreglass body kits. Never again.)
* SiR side skirts if I can source them
* Rear lip if I can find it

I plan to shave all the badges off (Except the H emblem...damn holes) and either paint or remove the door guards.
