Default beefy scooby

had my scooby now for 6 months
didn't realise would be this expensive to own!!!
swapped my civic (quite a nice 1) and some cash for a 96 v2
needed front disks and pads when i got it,so discovered the local scooby guru and he suggessted 4 pots,so on they went then the wheels didn't fit!!
a set of p1 17's later,then derestrict,dump valve,decat,tubular mani,fuel pump,dent touch-ups,centre arm rest,98 facelift lights and grille (waiting for me carbon bonnet before fitting)
and am still nowhere near crossing off everything i want/need to do off my list!!!

Paint the wheels white. It will look great. It looks nice as it is btw, but I think white wheels on a white scoob looks superb.
Be sure and get it remapped once you've done your mods. I think apexi power fc is the way to go.
