The next step
« on: February 22, 2008, 23:00:29 »
its been a little while since ive done anything to the landy so ive been busy buying things over the last few weeks and im getting them together all this w-end and im going to spend the next month working on it, this is a perfect chance for you to inform me that you either love it or think im insane

ive managed to get hold of new, steering guard, light bar, diff gaurds and tree sliders all to be fitted, chequer plated rear door card and hopefully chequer off the rear of the car and the front footwells, ive bought all new seatcovers tailored HL ones

and last but not least the car is going to go orange!

everything that is already black is staying black i.e the roof the bit in the centre of the bonnet and all the sills up to the half of the door, ive got a new front wing to go on so i cant wait all opinions welcome here she is now

if anyone is capable of doing a photoshop would be much appreciated
