the front bar ruins it a bit i reckon. and at least cut your damn springs like most backyard operators. that ride height is not cool.

Well I think you've done very well. At least you've gotten off your **** and actually done the things yourself, and then showed us pics.
I don't like the light switch, and I personally don't like neons/black lights/whatever in non-show cars. But it looks like it's done fairly neatly. But other than that, the EB looks pretty clean and the paint job looks pretty good from the photos - however it's hard to say without seeing it in real life. But if it did come out as good as it looks, good on ya!!

[chubbz]: all you need to do is make a new shaft because the EB ones are 10mm to short.
niko: i mite do in the future if i get a body kit, but that's way off :( |

did we really need zoomed up pictures of every thing?
i mean taking photos of painted wiper surrounds and ashtrays, stock eb/ed mirrors, whats the point? but otherwise i agree the car needs lowering and can do with a diferent spoiler
