Take care of it, this and my old Paseo were considered the twins, so if anything happens to it, me and Mikey will come beat you :rolleyes:

Plans sound good, that only needs a few touches to set it off properly and it will look even better than it does now.

Do the one thing that Mikey should've done but never did, get rid of that awful manifold heat shield, and replace the mani with an OBX 4-2-1, you'll need to move the cat back about a foot or have the downpipe cut and welded to the cat, but its so worth it, engine bay looks a lot smarter with it.

Hi Stevo, why would you have to move the cat back or cut the down pipe? Is it because the down pipe hits the tranny?

Well not updated since purchase, but have been putting it into this *BLOG*

Some good news though. I turned 17 on Monday 29th March, and Tuesday 30th March I passed my Theory Test :p

Anyway, for the record, hes been washed, I replaced the bootlock for a one in better condition, I fitted my fuse box and washer bottle lid that I had from previous projects (sprayed gunmetal to look a bit smarter) and also sprayed the cam cover and manifold heatshield so it looks smart. I hate the look of the manifold underneath so will keep the fresh look for a while before I have enough money to splash out on an OBX 4-2-1 mani.

Pictures speak more than a thousand words :

Added my Optional Headlamp Protectors

And an arty shot of the floormats that are unbelievably mint! These are now stored underneath the boot matt, so they can keep clean, il continue using the shit-taking matts.

Hupdate.

Been to a breakers and found a Paseo with fogs. Turns out I sold these to a chappy 3/4 years ago for £30, and bought them back from the breakers for £15. They had the original red paint under stonechips in the blue. Sprayed them a quick bodge silver to tide me over untill I get some black paint. Want them looking original OEM to be honest. Painted the little rusty hoops around the actual lamp too, so they look alot smarter.

Heres some shots :

I have also installed a set of old used Paseo floormats. Not amazing condition but its still an option. I have immaculate ones in the boot, which I want to remain immaculate. The sh!t taking mats turned out to be a pain in the arse, as it kept riding over the clutch pedal :)

Galliano.. I just saw in your blog P140 RHY is based in Tooting, London? THATS WHERE I LIVE! I've seen a silver ST around, never took notice of the plate, I'll check, its around the corner! and I'll keep a look out for P140, as Tooting is an extremely small area! Cars looking good as always.. Damn I love it when us 17 year olds have such sorted cars :)

Shafz.
