hot as mate without the kit, even hotter with it.. with your ghia the only things you need for the looks IMO is to drop it which is already been done and just whack on some bigger rims, the kit would make it just perfect... you already have the ghia interior, unfortunately there is nothing you could possibly do other than the afforementioned to make it any hotter... maybe a stereo and headrest mounted dvd screens if your going for that pimp look.. nice car.

Nice EL (not that I'm biased or anything). Will look hot with those mods.

Are the rims you're buying in E-Series offset?

just thought i may as well update this seeing as im bored as at the moment!!! havent bought the new wheels yet coz i havent been working enough and my bank account has remained stagnant. so hopefully in the next few weeks i will finally get the wheels and have them on the car before too long. also still need to replace one of the chrome strips on the drivers side door coz it is fair rooted. Decided while i cant get anywhere near enough money for decent engine mods etc, i may as well tidy it up abit and get it lookin better.

Nothing better to do so i thought i would just update this with what i think is the best pic ive taken of the car.

current plans are to eventually go down the Turbo path, short term plans will most likely include lowering (SL's) and better brakes

WTF, superlows, what is this.
If you see a black EL XR getting around, rack the springs out of that.
Then it will be perfect!
Looks clean as fuk though man, big fan of white Ghias.
