hey the names justin and this is my car

i bought a eb gli with 244 on the clock from Canberra about January last year it was in overall good condition but had a couple of really noticeable dents it was also lowered and had 17'' wheels with it.

so about December 2007 i took it in work and started to repair them and after i done them i thought i would take the opportunity while i had no license to respray it and get it ready for my ps

the exterior mods i have done to it are as follows
ed sprint front lower skirt,
au series 3 side skirts,
ba xr rear bar (in process of making),
ed xr grille and headlights,
au clear repeaters,
ed xr boot lip spoiler,
smoothed out boot garnish,
optional ed xr6 boot garnish,
el mirrors,
el door handles,
tinted or clear tail lights,
windows will be darkest legal tint


colour is going to be biscayne blue with viola fantasy pearl

car is primed and all parts are primed also i have sanded the car and parts ready for paint
except the:
ed xr headlight surround and grille (dont have it yet)
ba xr rear bar (still making)

That's mad you're doing your own paint. Will look nice when your list is finished. Check out Rollin's Build thread and see what he's done with those rims. What's that in the background, an XM?

Welcome to the forums :)
