    hoolis gunmetal grey on red project

    well the idea for this car started years ago when i got my first mx5 circa 2006!

    last year saw the start of it.......

    purhased a shabby silverstone mk1





    that then went off to the paintshop......




    came out like this...





    bagged a red interior for a song from a mate...




    thats about as far as i have got for now, seats are at the trimmers having a minor bolster repair then they will be fitted.

    new suspension is waiting to be fitted next week along with some red leather trimmed windscreen surrounds and a quilted red nakamae console!

    same as this but in red! (my old one retrimmed)



    windscreen surrounds



    started to remove the black from the dash but its bloody hard work, may not completed it we will see!



    aiming to have it finished by summer. but im off next week so there may be a few updates soon if it stops raining long enough to fit anything!

    last pic as she stands at the moment £42 ebay wheels FTW! will be replaced with rpf1s in the near future but lifes bills keep taking my money!



    updates soon!

    Glad your across the pond. ;)
    I have a 95M that is getting the same treatment.
    Mine will have a AWR wide body kit though.
    Just have to finish the other projects on deck first.

    Nice, it looks as good as i thought.

    What is the paint color?
    I'm looking at BMW "Sparkling Graphite" for mine, and there also is a Lexus graphite that looks good.
    Its gotta work with the LE interior though, so test panels will be shot.
