Nice mate. Did you give it a fresh coat of paint?

Plans for future mods?

**burner42** · 24-09-2009 02:56 PM

**Red_EG4** · 24-09-2009 03:20 PM

Looks clean!
mind if I ask how much you paid?

Thanks guys, the exterior paintjob was going to cost 2k. But I dented one side of the rear quarter so had to get that replaced as well. This panel + labour costed me 1k, so all up 3k. Very happy with the paint so reps to Vu and the crew from DT panels.

Just got my rear LCAs upgraded to blox al-6160 today, at the moment saving up for a rear sway bar + asr subframe kit. Then id probably get a buddy club n+ street coilovers for that perfect drop!

Btw neo my car looks like yours :P hi5
