I'm sorry Wicksy I don't have a cool last name like you.
I wouldn't mind lowering it with a new set of mags and a respray with a bit of purple pearl but can't really complain for a first car.

Awesome spot out there for some pics, took some myself out there at night not long ago but.. I didnt have a tripod so they turned out pretty crusty.. BAH!

Yeah mine must of spent its earlier years in the sun too, red just goes so crap in the sun, I swear my car was pink when I bought it not too mention the top of the steering wheel being crusty (still looking for replacement) :o , looking back at photos now I cant believe how pathetic it looked, couple of light cut and polishes and a good wax fixed that and it now actually looks 'red'.

Haha gee! Thats nearly or probably was as bad as mine, I hated seeing that obvious colour difference between the plastic and metal works. Satisfying after a bit of work to see that shine though :D .
