    Coupe Makeover

    Having lost my driving licence ive been very frustrated not having a car to play with so when this coupe came up for the silly price of £400 i snapped it up and gave it the love and attention it needed, basically my dad has had this as his work hack for the last 2 years hasnt cleaned it or serviced it properly it had suffered a rear end shunt and was looking very sorry for itself!
    Over the last couple of months i have bought it back up to scratch with some subtle extras, most of the work has been done by andy at motorsport services and im pretty pleased with the results, This is now my girlfriends car but shes allready moaning about fuel bills so it might be up for grabs soon!
    Work Done:
    Fully rebushed
    Top mounts replaced
    Added late s2 steering wheel
    Full engine service
    Plugs
    Filters
    18" alloy wheels italian origin (cant remmember make at present)
    Lowered 40mm
    Full interior valet refurbished leather
    Colour coded bumpers
    New rubber trims
    Machine polish
    Tracking
    Rear end fixed and repainted
    Various bits n Bobs

    Some pics sorry about the colour i think the camera was set up wrong!

          Thanks for the reply. The trim on my cars see better days so i'd like to replace it asap. It would be good if I can get the details of those wheels. I have to get new tyres as the one's I have are no longer legal so I'd like to get new wheels at the same time

                They look good. Thats the style of wheel i'm after. I'm hoping to convert the CQ to 5 stud but if i can't get the parts soon I'll still have to do some thing about my tyres. 2 are bald and 3 keep going soft
