I spent a few hours on and off painting my dash surround today. The colour is alot lighter then i was expecting, i might change it further down the line for a darker grey. Will be clearer when my bespoke Black and grey leather seats are sorted. Its got to come out soon for the Speedhut white dials (next on my list) :-k

Yeah, well once i get my new Black and Grey leather seats sorted, ill need a new gear knob and Gater. Im looking for a original style gear knob if anyone knows anyone selling them. All the after market one's are to long i think.

As for the Steering wheel, itll stand out like a sore thumb with all new leather else where so i plan on doing something with it, but again im not liking any aftermarket one's i have seen. I might look for newer alternative toyota ones............. :-k

Iv just been busy (for all of 15min this morning, lol) fitting a newer working electric aerial bought off here (thanks to 'jasongtr'). Works a treat, and a bit of a novalty not having a working one for nearly 3 years lol

The old Aerial

and the seats im getting once im back from Holiday in 5 weeks :-)

Nice looking seats :thumleft:

Well 'Rhon' will be able to sort you out with whatever colour leather gear gaitor you need. She makes them from scratch with high quality leather and you can even choose the colour of stitching.

She also recovers steering wheels :-k

I use a standard gear knob which has been recovered by Rhon and its really nice. Check her out for your leathery needs !!!

Oh any YES :-)
Iv got a nice alpine v12 amp behind the passanger seat, works a treat, combined with some decent Alpine 4" replacing the standard up under the seat belts. There running straight of the head unit.

:( Nope

Pacific works have been really busy, but I know they started on the car Yesterday so I don't imagine it'll be much longer.

My current ride has 2 wheel's and pedals :oops:

I must admit its really nice currently cycling home from work, I get to go the scenic route and its keeping me fit. But first thing in the morning, I don't fancy it and would much rather have a extra 15min in bed and drive in.

While its been off the road tho, iv bought Mud Flaps which im colour coding, and new central locking kit with some Sexy VW/Audi flip-up style key :D
(Mine have the TOYOTA Logo on tho ofcorse)

I bought a sexy new Airfilter yesterday :D Pictures to come

My poxy exhaust has started going now. Its a Magnex stainless steel jobbie, but i went to R-Tech yesterday and they told me Magnex have gone into liquidation so the life time warranty is no valid [Brick wall]

I didn't like it anyway. They have a custom exhaust place there too, and for £350 i can have anything they want. Has to be done [Rolling Eyes] fingers crossed i may get a little discount on top of that. Just my luck tho, life time warrenty worth toffee

Now iv got the car back from Pacific Works tho i can crack on fitting my new front fogs, and colour coding and fitting the mugflaps/spats
