Almost 1 year now since I got my TF, money is tight and progress has been really slow, but wanted to share with you all what mods/changes I have managed to make so far and what is still to come.








The first mod I made was to the boot lid, most of you will have seen this before. I really liked the cleaner look with the high level brake light and the key hole removed. I bought a 2nd hand boot lid from mgtfbitz in glossop for £25 and took it down to my local bodyshop (who have been immense) and they did all the filling and respraying. This set me back £200.00 but for the difference in look, I think its worth it. I bought an electronic boot lid release kit from ebay (£25) just incase your wondering how I'll open it




Next was some bodykit, I managed to get hold of a 2nd hand jdm kit (skirts and rear bumper lower spoiler) from a breaker on ebay.








My 3rd mod I am really happy with, I decided to get the rear side vents carbon dipped. Again thanks to ebay I managed to get a pair of vents for £10.00 I thought about trying to dip them myself but didn't want to mess it up so sent them off to: they charged me £75 for the pair and this included next day delivery by courier.


In my last post I was thinking of a complete respray, and after spending ages looking at way to many websites, I finally decided on gloss black base with a black halo Holographic flake. I accept that this may be a bit to bling for most people. However I am using it very sparingly and I really love the rainbow effect when the light hits it. I bought 2 packets of the flake and this is enough to do the whole car.
