twin tailpiece exhaust

morette headlights

smoothed rear handles

no spoiler

sierra cosworth vents (at later date)

 

 

wheels/suspension/brakes

rear strut brace

polybushed as much as possible

im not one thats much into my installs (although i do like my music) but i'll be making something custom. im in no rush to do it though and it will be way later in the year when im content with everything else that i do it :)
