Don't listen to radio :). Radio sucks! I'm an mp3/mp4 person ;). Plus now I have the sound of V6 growl, that's music to my ears! I can always whack a better one on later if I want anyway.

Visibility is still quite good in the rain, if it's misted up the rear screen demister does a fantastic job.

Looks alot better without the rear wiper and aerial I reckon ;) - plus it's lighter lol

yer i cant see at all, nowadays my cars caked in mud, and the coolness of having a nice smooth rear end, is fading fast. as well as the fact my mates have drawn a nob on the back window, so it makes it even harder to see out of lol.

Having seen it in the metal today, I have no words to describe the beast. Absolute stunner mate! Can't wait to see it lowered! What you got planned for her next? Or is there any other work in progress?

Oh my god!! da2el likes it! (sorry, I know you're fussy :))

The front lip is unique in the UK I think, no idea who makes it but it comes from the far east ;)
Lowering is next. Maybe some more carbon fibre...
Why did you change your mind 323H? They're my favourite car badges of all time :)

She's not finished but thanks for the comments guys, keep 'em coming

Most likely from Hong Kong - China, i seen this front lip on lot of 323f BA's in HongKong. i was about to buy the same front lip for my previous BA years ago but went for the Mazdaspeed one.

Nice, thought you'd nicked Moby for a moment there! (Until I realized you couldn't have as she's not running yet!)

Those where the wheels I was going to have but they were out of stock.

Good work fella. Time for a paint job on moby I think, black isn't as rare anymore! :badgrin:
