Hi Phly,

probably 8k for the bodywork, parts and spray, 1900 for the seat trimming and door panels (black monza leather) and 1500 for wheels and tyres, 1200 for stereo, 850 for immobiliser and alarm and 400 for window tinting!!

OMG!!

Oh well it will be beautiful when done!!

Also have changed wheels here is the new ones going on in 17 x 7 with 215 / 40 Falken 452 Tyres.

TechoSteve · 05-07-2008, 03:54 PM

Yes, when I saw the seats up close today, I knew my budget would have to expand to include the same.

Wow, looks like your spending a heap of money on this. But I can't wait to see finished results.
