The car was very tatty when I first got him so spent a lot of time on the body work and got him to this stage 
I then decided i wanted to update the look of the car so along came a set of 17's deeper lip spoiler and I colour coded the side strips
I then got the oportunity to take the car off the road for a time so decided to change the car slightly.
After looking round I decided i wanted some side skirts change the front and rear bumpers and a respray. After some research I found that this wasn't going to be cheap. Being quite handy myself I decided to cut down on the costs by doing most of the work myself so i set to stripping the car down. 
All parts that could be removed were
I then purchased a turbo engine lid which looked far better than the original one.
I wanted to bulk the rear end out a bit so kept the original bumper and added some Phoenix rear spats which weren't the best fit so I blended them into the bumper.
I also filled the aerial hole to give the spoiler a smoother look.
I struggled finding some side skirts that kept the original side vent so I bought some bomex skirts cut the bar out of my original vents and blended it into the bomex skirts.
These were then sanded down and mesh fitted
Then came the hardest part which was putting a sander to the lovely glossy paintwork but it had to be done in preperation for painting, also all dents and imperfections were filled and smoothed.
I wanted to update the rear end but always liked the shape of the lights
so added a smooth rear panel
Next was the bonnet I wanted a Carbon Fibre vented bonnet but just couldn't afford one so instead bought a fibreglass vent and cut my original bonnet and fitted and blended the vent.
The result was brilliant 
While at a show I saw a car with lambo doors and really fancied them, had a search round and was going to cost
£2000 owch!! Until I found a set of hinges in Japan for a quarter of the price and decided to have a bash and fit them myself.
First of all the front wings came off
Then the door was taped in place and the original hinge removed
The new Lambo hinge was then fitted
And up she went!!
After weeks of minor odjustments to get them lined up with the wings without catching, they were done.
The wiring loom for the door was then extended so it sould reach with the door fully up.
Then off to the bodyshop for a few weeks for a new coat!
I wanted a dark metalic grey and the bodyshop suggested adding a flick of gold and red to the paint which looks fantastic in the sunlight.
Here he is back home ready to be put back together. 
I managed to get the car back on the road just in time for my wedding
Then just this year I stripped the wheels down sprayed them black and polished the lips.
Treat myself to some new Bilsteins with TRD inserts and 40mm lowering springs and gave the car a much better stance.
So here he is now finished.
Hope you've enjoyed
