Well, I think I 've completed the interior now minus an OEM head unit. I've got all the missing plastics either en route or in my possession. Only head unit I've found was in the USA for £230 + £50 postage. No thankyou. However, I did find a single DIN bin with the brackets for £30, it was that or a new one without brackets overnight from Japan for £50. I chose the non spoon engine & I don't care what Hector thinks.
Wheel refurbishment booked. 15” rates FTW. Cheaper than I was expecting
Only things left now are the exhaust backbox and if I want to be anal about it, maybe a radiator. It's got a brand new Tegiwa half rad, which does the job just fine. I run the same thing on the mini. Oh and a wheel arch liner, apparently that's unobtanium though. I've been told I should buy and modify a UKDM one.
Exterior wise I need to get the rear wing repainted, buy a red H for the front and do a couple small touch ups here and there. There’s a couple small dents and scrapes that could be tarted up too.
Edit: I should add, it's got brand new Meister R's on. Which I was initially against, but after the drive home I was pleasantly surprised. They're not even set fully soft. I was originally planning on getting some OEM shocks or perhaps some new B4s & Eibachs but having seen the condition of what's available, perhaps not such a good idea. I'll keep my eye out but I don't think it'll detract too much from a resale value point of view.
