basically the toms front bumper was in bad ways so i decided to take it off to be repaired so i bought a standerd front bumper for £50 allready in white so wasnt too bad

also got myself a new boost gauge because of the blitz one that came with the car had seen better days and the bulbs had gone in it,

so i got myself a depo boost gauge thanks to james at cj performance :D he is a top bloke! had troubles fitting it and it ended up being a falty part but i spoke to him and he sorted everything out witch im grateful for :D

new gauge:

also thought the interiour was abit plain so had a play with my carbon fibre effect vinyl and wrapped my centre consol

i know its not everyones taste but just thought it spiced it up abit!

wrapped consol :

also on the hunt for more boost! the chap who had it before me had a jam ecu on it and it created 206bhp with it on, but as he didnt sell it me with the car and i cant afford to pay that sort of money for one im going for the rrfpr and fcd route to get it settled in at 1 bar :D currently running 0.5 bar so should be twice the fun!

heres the rrfpr i got :

another thing I've forgot to mention is I've bought an inlet mani wich is currently at the polishers so will have my shine on soon B)

next thing im buying isnt car related but full of jap goodness! i have a japanese style tattoo thats on my arm that covers my chest sholder and back and will be having that fineshed off before i carry on spending on the car :D will get some pics!!!
