I thought it was about time i did one of these


So here we go


Febuary 2009; Saw the car online; 2008 08 Black Sri XP Sporthatch, done 3500 miles.

Car was in London so paid a small deposit over the phone after chatting to the sales guy, got the train down the same weekend and brought the car


Here she is sitting at the dealers:



When i first got her






Front bumper slightly damaged on the drive up (dealer drove it up) damn satnav and narrow roads
But dealer were good about it, paid to have it re-sprayed up here



First mod was VXR Indicator Surrounds in May 2009:



July 2009: Gave the car its first full detail, was new to this as never really cleaned my old car











No more mods for a while but December 2009 was a very dirty car month








Fitted my new Alpine HU around this time




Now in Feb 2010 was two very big mods i had been waiting and saving a long time for


6000K Non-AFL Bi-Xenons


Bumper off:



Goodbye old headlights:



Hello light




Better pictures of the lights and dash to follow


Full Piano Black and Burg Carbon Dash

Quite scary with nothing there




Done:



Did nearly all of this myself (not very hands on
) with my dad there for moral support


March 2010:

My dad then brough a 5 door Metro blue Elite and my mate had a Astravan Sportive at the time aswell








April 2010:

Had dial LED's changed to white, much crisper and brighter
