ITS KINDA HARD TO WORK ON A CAR IF YOU ARE SINGLE & TRYING TO
MAINTAIN A SOCIAL LIFE!!!!
BUT HALF OF THE ENGINE BAY IS PAINTED, THE TOP IS THE SAME RED
COLOUR AS THE INTERIOR BITS, THE PRIMERED BIT LEFT WILL BE A
SATAIN BLACK! I THINK(HOPE) IT WILL COME OUT NICE!
WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK, PAINT THE BOOT WHITE ALSO OR FLAT IT &
PUT IN DYNAMAT? KEEP IN MIND THAT YOU WONT BE ABLE TO SEE
INSIDE THE BOOT IF YOU IN THE CAR & ALL THATS GOINT TO BE IN THE
BOOT IS SOME SOUND & A BATTERY BOX! INPUT????

Like the seat brackets, what seats are you going to fit. I'm busy looking at seats too, sad the good stuff's so expensive. I might go for OMP for myself
