that's fair enough....if that's the case though...how about all the people on here saying 'ftw' 'swmbo' 'iirc' and 'ooooof' they're not actual words, but noone says anything about that.
i'll be honest, i don't recall seeing those in many books. I can't stand text speak either, but give the guy a break.

Been away for a bit... hope everyones seen RUSTLESS' Gt turbo 5 Crazy nice, proper clean... utter sex Had loads of commissioned work, done an album cover and a graffiti wall in a pub in norwich on this week... but now ive finished me first yeah at uni got the summer to sort out the mess which is that white 5... gone a little further since the last pictures ive posted.... but have also gone backwards a bit too... got it on the road and now have a prohibition order for the cut springs which I have now replaced for 50mm items. but still not low enough so coilies it will have to be. the cars ready for an mot but just low on the £££'s for the rest of this month so all in good time. The naughty child bonnet has gone (hurray) .... and i have got hold of some old vento 14'' steels black and silver lip. and i'll leave you lot with this (i have 3 months to make it happen) i'll try and post some photes in the week.  |

I really quite like this, totally smooth off the original R5 body kit with a hard slam and this will look sorted. If the MSpaint-shop is anything to go by it will look sweet, keep up the good work ;D

Your getting there arent ya! Unlucky about getting tugged for the chopped springs.... what was his exact beef with them, were they loose in the cups, or did he deem it too low, or something else? Be interested to know, just so I can avoid the same happening to me! I like your MS paint creation, the graphics down the side are a good touch IMO  I have a suggestion for the bonnet- I don't mind the look it creates but I reckon if you could find some lights that are about the dimensions you want and then extend the bonnet down to the top of them, rather than extending the bonnet over the lights until they are the dimensions you want, then I think it would be 10 times better. Just my 2 Euros worth, easy for me to say sat here, and I don't know what car might have lights of those dimensions, but I think details like that can really make a car  Good luck with it, keep us posted! |

modding a car and studying is hard mate, don't we kno it

That'll look very nice with the ATS cups on when it's all finished mate . It's your car and if you are happy with it thats fine by me and it's nice to see some other cars other than dubs going euro look. ie...the brown Saxo on schmidts , the brown punto on ronals , the blue corsa on cups... out with the dodgy aftermarket bodykits and in with smoothed and modified OEM kits |

You've been telling me you were a genius since you were seventeen ... in all the time I've known you I still don't know what you mean !
