Gearbox recon and new clutch
First thing to do was to recondition the gearbox and fit new clutch.
I also repaired some damage to the osr corner. I also got a bit of filler on the off side whilst waiting for the clutch to be delivered.

Some slight changes not to everyones taste.
The car looked a little too plain and because it was the wifes car, thought a few girlie bits would suit.

One step forward 2 steps back
Well after the car got completely blasted to pieces on another forum the appearance dawned on me as being completely s**t tbh.
The same day the Louis Vuitton A panels went on, in the evening they came off. The roof and mirrors also got painted to black.

Dechroming
After the car started to look a more masculine I decided to dechrome the whole car.

Some more changes of mind
Not liking the panda eyes around the headlamps or the badges, I went for a debadge and colour coding of the headlamp bezels.

Too much black going on
There was just too much black going on with the whole car.
The black wheel arches and side skirts made it look like a tractor so I went down the colour coding route. I changed the wheel colour from white.
