nice,fair play to you!!
Did this need to go through a vosa check because of the extensive work on the body?and would it need to be changed on the log book?

Hmmm, numerous things extra I would of done here. Also, the colour choice would of been different. Needless to say it's not a bad job with regards to smoothing the tailgate into the rear panel etc.

Top of my list on 'extra bits' - mtech f+r bumpers, wheels change, roof chop so it looks a longer car. Just because it looks a touch too tall... Good project

I like this a lot 8)

Consider changing the wheels for some 15" BBS and a decent twin-pipe exhaust would finish it off very nicely.

Nice work :D

nice job !

personly i wouldnt put mtech bumpers on it, it would make it look a bit "max power" rather than a pick up, id like to see it liftted with a 4wd convsersion and general grabber AT tyres and steel modular wheels, a proper pick up 8)

One way of putting it. :P

Not to my tastes personally but looks like you've done lots of work on it and so fair play to you. :)
