So I thought it'd be about time i make a thread to show the changes I've made and are making since acquiring my little eunos last June.

Here's a photo of the day I picked the car up

So since the car has been in my ownership here is a small list of modifications:

- Cherry blossom fabric covered door cards
- New Stereo
- HSD coilovers
- New indicators
- Front 'GV style' lip. (I may take this off as I'm worred about it ripping the bumper off on speed bumps

)
- Front stick on number plate.
- Carbon headlight cover on one side

Also recently made a new purchase of some wheels and tyres all round. I wasnt a fan of the BlueFox but am keeping them as spares. I will try and update once ive done a bit more with a more current photo.

Cheers guys I took a quick photo from Haynes the other weekend.

I also just got some new wheel, so happy with them. They are Work VS-XX in 15x6.5 I fell in love with these first time I saw them and jumped at the chance once I saw a set for sale. The catch was I had to ship them from Japan. I feel they really give the car a bit of an OEM+ kind of look. Definately beat the slightly scabby wheels from before.

Ahh i didnt realise, I think i've had a tinker with my sharing option and hopefully these photos will now be more viewable. I'm trying to use google photo for those of you who know how to use that? (I have unlimited storage on there)

Anyhow My car had its MOT, and passed with only the one advisory and the tester mentioned how clean the underside was which bodes well and im happy with. I finally got the hardtop off with the spate of lovely weather. Hopwing for more of the same this weekend as shes been sittin in the garage all week!

And a closer look at my Work VS-XX with some Project-Mu wheel nuts which I absolutely love on this car. (I am planning on sticking some 5mm spacers on there before the weekend though)
