Carlos sp20

Hi all.......I drove my Ford Laser for 3 years..
Time to say goodbye to it because I gave it to my Bro...

Its a beautiful car and I spent few thousand on it...

Lets back to the sp20... Its a 2001 BJII sp20...
I found it on ebay and it cheap and clean....so I bought this
but no rwc and with a broken fog light...and the beautiful plate not include


Of coz..the first thing to do is steam clean+ car wash




And all of the reusable stuff..light bulb..licence plate cover...floor mat from my laser to this sp20


The broken fog light..luckily got a nearly new replace on astinagt here


Finished the rwc...HID is important


However..It need a new Cv-Joint and two front disc and pad....Spent few hundred...




To be continue

When two of my lovers park together


Wanna grab this bar to sp20 as well...my bro not allow me to do so...


Before the Christmas...weathershield..fog light tint..mazdaspeed badge are all ready..




So next stop is NSW-Sydney count down road trip..




This one should be in bondi beach


The only thing I dislike is the window tint not dark enough..


With the speedometer ring from my laser and a new pioneer double din player ( the factory one is suck...always CD error)




In fact...I love sedan more...


The BJII-J48 tail lights are on its way...cant wait to change it !


A question..
Anyone know where can I get the plastic on the roof of Ford Laser SR2?? They are cool!!

Anyway, nice looking car!!

My parents have given up lecturing me on cars and the like. They have focussed their attention onto house jobs and rent.

Get the AAC bumper sag brackets.

Post your interest in the Group Buy thread 'bumper brackets'
They work amazing!

See MPR23's build thread... She had recently uploaded pics of her brackets.

the bumper clips under the corners of the headlights probably broke too.... that's what causes the sag

mine are still good... no sag, zero gaps!
