I'd been thinking of moving up to a T-Sport or the UK GT model if I found one that met some of my criteria.
Well, I soon saw a CCUK member's T-sport up for sale and it pretty much met all my criteria.
Chatted with Ed, checked out the car, took it for a spin, and decided to buy it.
The car drives like a dream, and has a large number of mods that I have always been thinking of doing.
The only downside is the bodywork. The front end is going to need a respray due to immense stonechipping.
The replica C-One scoop isn't a great fit and is also in urgent need of a respray.
The passenger door has a nice dent in it thanks to a random passer-by.
The rear bumper's got a couple of dents in it.
And the replica GT spoiler is a rather bad copy, which is cracked. The blade's carbon wrapped at the moment though, so that hides some of it.
But never fear, fellow NC.org buddies, all these items will be attended to
Good bits:
18" Compomotives with some minor kerbing, wrapped in nearly new Rainsport 2 tyres.
Front and rear strut-braces.
Full poly bush kit
Lowered on Eibach springs
Shortshifter
Carbon fibre engine covers
GT alcantra interior seats
Blue LED climate control
JVC touchscreen double din
Tinted windows
Dynamic skirts
Tegiwa tow hooks
Wilwood BBK
HIDs
I've already made up a blue LED and swapped over my illuminate gear stick ring.
I've got some blue LEDs for the footwells too.
I'm going to be putting a green prefacelift clock in, so i can filter that blue too, and will eventually get a custom speedo with blue backlights.
I'll be swapping my Kaminari skirts and UK GT lip over.
I've got something in mind to get rid of the spoiler.
I'll put my replica Sports M hood scoop on instead of the C-One monstrosity.
And I'm undecided about what to do with the wheels...
Here's how she stands at the moment:
She looks good, but not quite ready for her close-up yet.:
Better pics in due course...
