I'm sending off for my tax soon (which is $500+).

So, Rims with that.

 

Then with my savings...

Paint the bumpers to match the car.

Exhaust...

 

 

That's it so far.

Don't bother painting the bumpers, just grab some colour coded ones from a wrecker. Cheaper and less effort. Looks clean, good buy :P

 

 

Also you should buy my struts and rear swaybar. They will transform the car :cool:

also buying bumpers from the wreckers the paint should match almost exact

are you going to get a mirror for your pass side and then colour code them to.

Looks like a pretty neat car. Color coded bumpers on white cars look really good.

How much did you pay for your car? Do you have pictures of the subs?

Nah, I'll grab some in the morning. It's a bit late now.

 

I got the car for $1100 with rego from my aunt.

 

150,000 on the clock.

 

I am going to get the left mirror once I get down to the wreckers. I also need a window winder for the left door.

 

Also, next weekend I plan to book it in for a 2" exhaust system.

 

She's a very good/clean car with no leaks, rust or mechanical problems. And the fact it's a manual is a bonus.

 

Cheers, Tim.

 

EDIT: I'm planning on picking up some rims with my tax. I'm just wondering if 15's will fit and ride without much hassle?

I have 15"s on my car and its not "too" bad... It does rub if i have anyone in the back seat so i just say i can only take one passanger. A few people with ae82's have the same problem so if you roll your gaurds you might be ok. I have no idea about wheel offset and all that. Jus expect the tires might rub a little bit.
