Cheers Steve!! It was a hard decision and I know I will regret it but things move on! Looking for a mildly modded Type R to start again with, so I can free up some cash

Yes mate, had a respray 18 months ago, it was Obsidion Black Pearl! Everything but the engine bay, which doesn't look out of place at all!

Regarding the mirrors, they haven't been changed, they're the original ones

Merv the cash you free up will very quickly disapear if you intend on modding the type r, say you get 7k change out of selling and buying that will not go far depending on how far you want to take it, I know you clearly have an idea on what stuff cost due to the car you have but after the money you throw on a type r you will have a car worth considerably less than the car you do now.

People are struggling to get 9-10 on a 2.5 6speed classic

If it were me I would either keep it or buy a type r and leave it around 350 Mark anymore then your 7k will disapear

Best of luck and wish i was in the Market for a new ride as inwould seriously consider buying this!

I'm not gonna go mad with the Type R up to 350-370 will be plenty anyway! It'll be a good few years before I decide to get a big build, if I even do with the R! Just a few subtle mods and that'll be it

I used just a normal black acrylic spray, quick layer of primer underneath first

I know when I bought this I knew it wouldn't stayed standard for long, but the new one will only be modded slightly engine wise with a few subtle body mods

I know the owner and the car which has wanted for nothing, personally I think he's nuts but if needs must.
Good luck Merv
