Hey John, I still don't know about the door handle idea...it's too ED like...lol
I tell you what John, those sway bars are awesome! They stiffen the front up something cronick! The only bad thing is the steering has gotten harder now..oh well. The price of modifying.
Max, I thought about EB GT ones but they're too much. I don't really like many other rims. Maybe you suggest some?
Gilly, Pat fixed up my rear door. It had a 'dint' in it. It's out now.

One of the cleanest E-Series around. It looks mint.
Chuck up an engine bay shot. I couldn't stop ogling at it when I first saw photos.
Keep up the tidy work!!
By the way, the AJRs would've looked crazzzzy on this.

Well deserved. That is immaculate. Did you buy it in such pristine condition?

Thanks mate. I didn't buy it this clean. It was very stock looking, so the mods I've done have made it looks cleaner..I've also got many parts of the car resprayed due to the age of the car (and because of damage sometimes

). The engine bay has had a lot of little cleaning up things done to it to make it clean. Like the sound deadener stuff on the fire wall is off, and the paint is waxed, airbox gone...etc, etc. All just little things.

Yeah it's usually all the little things added up that make something special. Was the cabin louder once you removed the shitty firewall stuff?
