A good base to start modding from. Simon started with one almost identical and his is looking great.
He may have sold it now though! In any case, he did a great job with it. Welcome back John, haven't seen you around for a while. GK

that would be very different, something not many people have done, if anyone? the T series bodykits look hot with the right colour choices. if you go with mags/alloys decide on and fit your bodykit first, then decide on which style rim will better suit your kit. this way you will get the best result for street-appeal. darkest tint you can possibly get, such as limo tint. ride hight lowered, as au ride hight is like a 4wd! (what the hell were ford thinking?!!!)
ultimately though, its your car, best of all its the base model in white, a great canvas to start with. i have a forte wagon in white and have many plans for it also, starting with kit, rims, and stripes. tinting and lpg conversion already done. good luck with ur mods, i feel sorry for ur wallet (mine seems to cower in the corner every time i get an idea on something new to do!!!!)

Same mods that I need to do: Remove the whale teeth on the front and stick on something better (i'm leaning towards the Hawk grill right now) and lower it (I'm not sure how much I should do. Because I need to get mags first so I can compare the new tyre size to the lowering levels.
