well im finally back from my 3week holiday in england/paris

was hard as all i could think about is wanting to finish this car

i didnt bring much back cause of the stupid weight restrictions and m stupid idea to bring brake discs back which weighed 15kg out of my allowed 23

picked these discs and pads up for only 100 pounds off the shelf aswell
nissan sa wanted 2600+vat each

oh and a
sparco gear gator R200

and wicked sparco race inspired shoes mmm not the most comfy shoes but what the hell R700
Image

im hoping to send the car for paint in the next 2weeks or so
