Pics dont work from phone

 

I know right, was goin to paint it dull babyshit green but a flip of a coin come up with this shit colour

 

i fucked up and didn’t paint the lower part of rear end like the gts are done  think I will paint that part black to be honest

 

anyway ay the current colour I call matt grey, it’s the latest trend of half assed car wanna be fixer upper ers, usually done in a 2 tone style by the import clan splitting the colours at the body kit lines

Well it’s all back together except the front door trims witch I’m fixing up, managed to fit 8 speakers Into it with consist of R type front 6 inch, 2 pairs of pioneer 6 inches in rear and a pair of 6-9 infinity or something in rear parcel shelf witch actually look like there top of the line things, have 2 alpine amps here I will run 6 of the speakers and a sub or 2 I have here from the manta and 2 run of head unit

 

did a strip of marone suede in rear door cards for now as tops where pealing up, will get some pic of that in different light as it was night and lights and looks nothing like it actually does in pic, I will do more to door trims down the line but just want it goin for now and think it out a bit more yet as to what I want to get imbroided on the inserts first

 

once I get extractors and camber kits onto it I will put wheel from manta onto it and get a wheel alignment and do some driving in it
