Had this a couple of months now,

Done a couple of bits to it,

Added a boost gauge, fitted an induction kit and dump valve.

All seems good.

Hence the reason for buying this and selling the BMW E30 I had!

Back to the car...

Next up is a cambelt change and figure out the boost issues its having (Overbootsting and fluctuating)

Wheels need a lick of paint and then I'll sell it lol

I want an X5 but still out of my price range atm sad1.gif

The upper grill is currently held on with cable ties lol.

Im removing the badges and then had no other plans with it.

Pay the postage and its yours if you want it? a decent bit of sealant would sort it out I can get some better photos.

Thanks bud.

I had a few hours to myself this afternoon so new grill painted and fitted, happy with the fit as it was a copy from taiwan.

Just need to pop the vrs badge back on, still waiting for the replacement bumper grills to turn up!

I've also re-fitted the airbox and standard DV to make it a little more stealth, I do miss the noise tho!

Grill badge back on (photo before bumper grills in)

Just waiting for the new front ashtray to turn up and that's pretty much all the broken/bodged bits sorted out.

Then cambelt/water pump at the end of this month, lowering and a set of tyres, in the future looking at a stainless catback and re-map.
