Let me know what you think. Pics will be posted tonight. I've recently just stripped out the boot, back seats and rear door cards/roof card etc. I know also the brakes will need to be better than cheapo Pagid etc so will be looking into drilled/grooved/vented discs as soon as i sort the calippers out.

Again any info or advice on something ive missed or something which I dont need to do or even a better way to do something would be appreciated.

cheers, Ash
