    If you can be bothered, Chuck some sound deadening in the doors. Makes the car feel heaps more upmarket and the sound quality is great. I've just got a little slim Fusion Sub mounted on the back of the rear seats but it sounds sweet now. Competes with my dads Bower Wilkins surround sound system in his jag.
    Far out! definitely investing in some more when i get the funds...Did it with my mums car while i was driving it, used two rolls of it from jaycar on all four doors. Improved the sound quality greatly, especially because it was a ****ty 206 :|

      CAR Sound Deadener Fatmat Extreme 12 5SQ FT Automotive Sound Deadening | eBay

      Get it from this guy. he offered me like 80 sqft for $150. I didnt need that much but its heaps cheaper than any other stuff you'll find and it 12.5ft did my car doors and a little bit extra easily. probably got 25sqft if you want to do the boot as well.

          Sooo this afternoon when i got home from school i decided to attempt to restore the paint on the rear drivers side door... Im pretty sure there is no clear coat and it has just faded over its 16 year life time.



          Not too bad for my first attempt, just some paint cut/cleaner then polish, then topped it off with some spray wax that my dad has...

          When i get the time ill be doing the whole car, but before that i need to find where to get some clay bar, anyone know who stocks some?????

                              The VR6 is literally the ambition for my car... so well presented, perfect amount of lows, amazing

                                HMMMM soo the coilovers will hopefully arrive on wednesday, and will install them sometime after that and before HSC, i was hoping to have them installed last weekend but coils didn't arrive.

                                In the mean time, i have kept my self occupied by redoing the headliner in my car... Before it was like this; saggy and held up by dodgy thumb tacs... ahah



                                Sooo i headed down to the the local spotlight and bought some fake suede for like $25 a metre. Took out the headliner and spent about 3 hours straight trying to get the old sticky **** off with a hard bristle brush, untill i found that carefully scraping all of it off with a razor blade is ALOT quicker. Put a whole can of spray adhesive down and bobs your uncle, i have a new black suede headliner!
