The cars a beaut, with a low mileage of 26000km on the clock she drives as if she was brand new, interior has no marks or stains and the body work, stock at the moment only has a few stone chips on it.

During the 5 month wait I ordered many mod parts and they are sitting in my room ready to bolt onto the car but I'm planning to take my time on moding the car since I dont want to rush it and finish all my mods in the first few weeks :rotfl:

So I did a bit of work on the car over the last week, but will get into detail later on with some pictures :nod:

For the time being, I gave the car a quick wash over the weekend after the rains past and took a few better pictures of her.

There's a few hints of what I put on the car last week in the pictures so see what you can spot and enjoy :rotfl:

Managed to order my new rear bumper a few days a go
Should be here in 6 weeks times, can anyone guess what rear bumper this is?
