Default At a loose end today,Got the urge to MOD !

The missus and little lad took themselve's off to the in-laws for the day,so i thought its about time someone moved on a model with the headlight mod!

so here's one i prepared ealier.......

this is the front end prior to the day's activitie's,complete with pink badge and silver light's.



all stripped down,the headlight's were a right royal pain in the *** to remove,a lot of tilting and spinning required to squeeze them out.also many,many gromit's and 10mm bolts to be had,here she is looking a little sorry for its self!



Headlights painted black,grill badge done in same colour/shade,also the centre grill has been given a nice carbon fibre wrapping to add that little something,the red spec c mod has been done to death now,so the carbon is a welcome change IMHO!



closer up side on view,



Mod's so far-

Rota GRA 18" alloys with yoko parada
Sti spec c front lip
Scott lowe mudflaps
De-tango all round
Alpine i-pod processor headunit with infinity speakers
TSL group N back box and centre section

Next up is a louder exhaust(nur spec/afterburner etc) and some whiteline goodie's!

regards marcus

Spot on mate, I did like the Spec-C grille surround but the carbon does look a nice alternative. Still not had a proper look around that new car of yours, I'll have to drag myself along to one of the Sheffield meets again for a nosey!
