My newest daily - ED

Well I picked up an ED off xavier to use as a daily.... Unfortunately due to work n shit Ive only driven the car once
today but Im very pleased with my pickup.... Its an awesome car to drive

Link to his thread here:

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5908&p=120924#p120924

I also picked up a set of grey concordes off last night. Rims wise the plan is to take the good tyres off the concordes, and
chuck them onto the set of FTRs which came with the ED, should look sweet slammed that way... Then ill clean up the
concordes as use them as drag rims for the turbo or something...

Today I got out the old nightshades and tinted the tail lights and full number plate surround.... Its pretty dark now, much
darker than the turbo anyway :D

So far the car has been better at idle then expected so I dont think Im gonna bother with the tune as of yet, I was expecting
something to idle like a pig, but at idle its less savage than my turbo thats for sure-the manual prob helps though....

I plan on giving the car a full detail, inside and out, over the next couple of days so pics will follow closely after that.... The
stereo is also pretty decent, it loves pumping out the black & death metal anyway:devil:

The paint has turned to shit on the boot though, so today I picked up some matching polynesian paint and will give it a
quick spray over next week or so.

Other than that no real plans for the car, its already had the hard yards done Im just gonna enjoy it as a sweet daily....

Ok so gave the ED a exterior detail today.... I ran out of time to go get the tyres swapped
over to put the rear FTRs on though.... Im gonna give the interior a good clean tomorrow
after uni....

Still Im pretty happy with the way it turned out, paint isnt perfect as its got some
scratches/dents etc but still has lots of shine....

Still gotta respray the boot, and I'll also clean up the front bumper with some grey to match
the rest of the car... The front bumper has really faded on the stripe..... Plus I think Im gonna
de-badge the exterior too....

yep those are concordes sitting on the back seat :P

haha Nah he had a cheap, poorly painted set as spares so I bought them
off him.... Just chucked the other FTRs on then, looks sweet for a bunky
daily anyway :D

Without the rear section of the exhaust its fuckin loud..... Plus the cam
is pretty hardcore....
