then i had a run in with a tree crossing a road one night and gave her this nice little battle scar

so it was over to will_c for the day to sort it all out
didn't look too good when we took the wing off

quickest way you pull a vallance(sp) out?
wit a rope and a car of course

few bangs of a hammer and she was good as new
the wing itself was then given the hammer threatment and a quick splash of primer to protect it again

and all help back together with zipties(they save lives:D)

since i got the car the only thing iv been able to do is collect wheels and up rate some parts. i got a DW slave cylinder to help with the up rated clutch and picked up an oil cooler(yet to be fitted)

Little bitch she is! We love her though :D

so when are we fitting the oil cooler then? :p
And will we do that wing properly while we're at it or what?

still have to get hoses and a sandwich plate before fitting the oil cooler.
that wing is grand just shows she is a used and abused tramp and no queen!

if darragh still has bad ass rockstar stickers i plan on using one of them to cover it up and score several million drift skilz by adding that sticker alone:D

then its adjustable act. stage 1 chip and replace the APEXi SAFC II.
then when i sell the SAFC II thats will fund bigger injecters and maybe a T28.
but hers the thing. do i sell the SAFC first buy a T28, bigger injecters, adjust act. and a stage 2 chip?
