Default A few changes and an overdue wash

Well thought the car deserved a wash as the sun is out and it's not been done for an age. Would of been rude not to take a few snaps and it's also a good chance to show off the few changes.

Spoiler back on, not too keen on it but just fancied a change of look.
New air filter fitted which was a ball ache as its huge.
Cold air feed fog cover replaced with a standard one.
A few hoses and catch can pipes sorted out.

It's got AST coilovers fitted buddy, sits a bit lower than standard.
Yep, 18" Ultralites.
Spoiler is easy, four 10mm nuts. 5 minute job at the most. I just use some white vinyl cut into small circles to cover the holes. Got it from local DIY shop, it's stickey on one side.

I love all the interior dials, switches and gadgets. Tell me you wear one of these when driving full pelt...

Thinking about removing the rear window tints. I did have the fronts done to match but the law made me remove them.

What do you think ?
