Default wr1 getting done up

well since i won the dirty show car ,iv been thinking (well our lass as ), that the wr1 needs bringing back to life and putting right ,,so i started tonight.

took the front splitter off tonight and fixed it ,ready for painting tomorrow.
also bought a fog light cover ,
some carbon fibre front light covers/edging (hard to explain)

im also ordering a carbon exhaust heat shield, some perrin wigh stiffies and a 06 style top spoiler (if any one knows where to find these cheap ,please let me no)

oh and to top it all off its getting mapped up

stu

ps ,,,forgot the most important thing some clay bar and polish

Tossers, someone slashed a load of car tyres where my other half lives (only just down the road from you). I'd slash their hands off if I caught them.
