Jesus man, fix it up a bit man. It could be a nice car, Remove them/all stickers, get some decent piping, try and use things other than rusty coat hangers and zip ties to hold stuff in place etc etc, you'd be suprised at how well $50 spent at supercheap could improve the look of that engine bay. Im not talking about chrome stickers or fake braided hose, im talking about cleaning products, a rivet gun, some paint, sand paper etc. |

What happened to the drivers door? I bet that passenger seat shits you off too, mate has a vs, we fixed his seat up with a ten min weld job, know anyone with a welder, take the seat to them, should be able to fix it pretty easy man rather than buying a new one. Wont take too much to get her back to ship shape condition, all the basics are there! |

Depending on what u wanna spend. Polished plenum top. New turbo intake pipe (remove the factory CIA). Stainless pipe and silicone hose and then polish it all up. |
