Newbie in Sydney

Post by EchoFTO »

Hey guys, I've just bought my FTO it's a silver automatic GPX (100% stock). Looking into adding some mods to it, (possibly interior/wheels+tires/doors/lights) no body kits or anything...Also considering a respray (needs some body work). Anyway, look forward to getting involved with you guys! Ciao

EDIT: You asked for pics, so here you go. Camera is old so quality isn't great :P

The grain is just from quality of flash hitting the "sparkle" on the paint when it's dark and dust that's built up over the week (washing tomorrow).

Some chips on the bumper/under the frontbar. Laminate is peeling on the headlights. One mirror won't fold properly. Got it for the cheap price of $4,000 at 107k km's on the clock with a 3 year warranty. Built 1996 GPX, imported 1999.
