Its nowhere near complete yet, theres a lot more work needs doing. but here it is:

[JimmyGray]

I will keep uploading pictures, to keep you all updated on any changes i make to it.

You need proper wheels

And you also need to get cool air going to that filter. That's going to suck in a lot of hot air from the engine.

But it's looking good. Nice and clean

[JimmyGray]

i know, ive got a forced cold air duct but have yet to fit it, i dont think itll really matter with the weather getting cooler, but i will do it asap. also, getting some alloys ASAP.

[Maxi]

Nice! I can't wait til I get some cash so I can start doing stuff to my car

[JimmyGray]

i know mate its an expensive do but its worth it once its done, i only have time to do things to my car on the weekend cos i work all week, just going to get some new speakers in a minute, cant wait. the ones that are in it are terrible haha.

[GSRLoz]

Very nice, love the colour, not seen one in dark blue before. Keep up the good work!

[JimmyGray]

cheers mate, i keep cleaning the engine bay whenever i can get time, itll be spotless by the time ive finished, and when i get time i'm gonna paint the rocker cover.

You did a nice job with the de-badging. Looks great.

[JimmyGray]

thanks mate, you can still see the 'suzuki' outline sometimes in the sun light, but ill keep waxing it until its completely gone.

i regret doing my rocker cover now, sprayed it black! gonna strip it back down to metal, and polish it. have it shiney!

[JimmyGray]

yeah mate i was thinking that too, i wanted it blue but i think id get sick of it after a while. ive bought some engine degreaser today so i reckon im just gonna polish it up to the max. is the rocker cover easy to get off?

[GSRLoz]

mine was, although id reccommend getting a new rocker gasket for when your putting it back on.  id get some wire wool too if your going for the shiny effect!

[JimmyGray]

how much would a gasket cost me? can you post some links please mate, where i could order some from? yeah ive got plenty of wire wool and wire brushes and all sorts of cleaning stuff! im gonna attempt it this weekend so ill post before and after pics!

Gasket only costs like a tenna, get it from your local auto parts place or they do one on ebay.
Great let us knnow how it goes
