Spec list (going of what reciepts i've got from the previous owner etc) :

Full turbo back Blue flame exhaust
Blue Fame sport CAT
Forge front mount intercooler
APR stage 2 re map
Viper induction kit,
Forge spitter 007 dump valve
Weitec coilovers
Power Flex bush's
Grooved brake discs with red stuff pads
Up rated MAF sensor
Neuspeed 180 degree 3 pole fan switch
De silenced turbo charge pipe
Forge silicon pipes
Vacuum and Boost gauge mounted where the cente heater blowers were

The car came with the 18inch audi rs4 alloys on, they looked nice but required spacers to fit over the callipers and that did nothing for the ride quality so the first thing i did was but some standard alloys of e-bay, which wernt in the best condition. I personaly re-furbed them at work and then had to choose the colour :blink: after much messing about with colour cards etc i went for a dark metallice grey from renault :D and think they came out quite well.
The only other things ive personaly done are jus to tidy the car up really, new richbrook tax disc holder, full body polish and to spray the rear badges the same colour as the wheels :D still needs bits polishing and spraying but will get round to them soon enough lol

cheers mate, i like the rear lights they look better in the flesh than on the pics, goes with the wheels etc, i'm not really a fan of the headlight brows but they're well stuck down with sealer so its going to be a mess when eventually get round to taking them of lol
The only really thing i want to do to the bodywork is get all the small dents/scratch's/blemish's removed, which wont take to long the bonnet needs painting and its had a slight knock on the o/s front wing so need to get that sorted, other than that just spray the front and rear seat badges the same colour as the leon and apr one's, dont think i really want to change much more on the outside, unless any1 has any idea's?? lol

nice car mate love everything bout it!
thanks mate :D
