After owning the car for a few weeks the immoboliser gave up putting all plans on hold. £800 later and I could get in and drive it. This sounded perfect until I picked it up and was told it had a faulty manifold due to a P2015 fault (Manifold runners).
Due to this all my mods had to stay small, here's what I did while waiting for the spray work and manifold to get done.
LED bulbs throughout the interior.

HID kit fitted. This was fun as I had to have the the DRLs turned off then I brought a canbus pro HID kit and the wired adapters to get them up and running. I also was able to fit my private plate.

After that the exterior bulbs began to get started. The sidelights were easy and so was the chrome rear indicators. But then I had to do all the other yellow bulbs reverse fog and puddle lights here's the reverse bulbs. The fog bulbs were replaced with blue tinted bulbs.

As for the puddle lights. They are still sat in the garage unfitted, but not for long.
After that I decided that my brakes looked like they had seen better days, so I decided to give them a little TLC.
I started by ordering some gloss heat resistant paint. Here's links.

I ordered a 250ml tin of pure white and a 500ml of jet black (As I needed to do my dad's drums too).
A 250ml tin is enough to do all 4 calipers and personally I feel as though brushing it on give a better finish by miles.
Here's some photos of them before and after. I'm happy with them and it took 4 hours to do the rears which I don't think is bad for the finish. I'll do the front ASAP and update.
After sanding:

Finished:

Here's photos of the front. Same process but the initial sand had to be done with a dremmel and sanding wheel as they were a lot more corroded. Here's photos.
Before sanding: As you you can tell the rust is pitted making if hard to sand smooth.

And here's a photo of the car now it's all done. Looks a million times better (might have zoom to wheels).

At the same time I thought id take the badges off the boot. It is currently in getting smoothed but here's the photo after that.

Next on my agenda was to start making a smooth T5 grilled bumper with other mods
