Very nice mate looks quite mean and loving the spec sheet you've got going on there ( 400bhp silly )

I see you've got a red reverse light instead off the usual clear fog light change, will this mod pass an MOT as i was thinking of doing this on my red ST.

Or have you got your reverse lights in the clusters now?
Cheers bud, i see every1 wsa going for the twin reverse lights so wanted to go down a different route lol (plus it was 99p of ebay lol).. you don't actually need a reverse light for an mot i don't think lol..... but the reverse lights could easily be plumbed into the clusters i suppose =)

lol cheers for all the comments both good and not so good... but i would defo not descibe it as a 'Halfords look car' pmsl.... as said its all very easy to get her former glory.... i just fancied a change from the 'norm' lol..

The wrap was done by a company called 'Legend Vehicle Specialists Ltd' there external wraps start from £800+vat

The seats are out of a corsa VXR i got hold of them at a decent price and always thought the std seating position to be too high?? these have a much lower seating position.. ( i still have the std interior to go back in when it goes back to the blue =)

Pics of mine and the Mk2





The car is on compamotive MO6s in these pics

And a little pic of the fuel setup to cope with the hike in power once mapped
