since iv fallen madly in love with my disco2 and dont think ill be selling it anytime soon(never had a car more than 6 months and i normally have 3 cars at one and im only 20!!!! explains the lack of money really:doh:) i want some visual upgrades for her. is a 2000 gs in navy blue. i have my window tint ordered(light tint) and im getting 6000k HID's at the weekend and ill be putting HID's in the fogs too,i have my sub and amp (pioneer) to go in soon and ill be putting in upgraded speakers soon(what size in disco 2? too lazy to take panels of at the mo) ill be putting led sides and numbers in it and ill be making up my own led rear light clusters(sides to look similar to the ford C-Max leds. im kinda brain dead after that and was wondering what else could i put on her(NO SIDESTEPS!!!:p)

thanks in advance

Roofrack?
Soft A-Bar?
Light Bar?

HIDS in the fog lights may look good, but you want get much benefit in real terms

yeah im thinkin about a genuine a bar with 6" fogs with black stone guards

the HID's in the fog's are purely aesthetic,yellow looking fogs with HID mains would look cheep,unless there jap style yellow????hmmm:cool:
 
i must be getting senile , didnt realise it was april first, oh well will be my birthday soon.
 
Not wishing to be the merchant of doom and gloom, but wouldn't it be better to get all the mechanical mods sorted first. Wont cost a fortune but small mods like EGR, de-cat, checking for oil on the loom etc. little things that will catch you out at some point. It's fine to do visual upgrades but not at the expense of ignoring mechanical issues. Good luck :)

Point taken Steve, I was 20 once. In fact I've been 20 nearly 3 times now :D

Just one question - how does a 20 year old manage to buy and insure a TD5 Disco ?
I am on my first TD5 Disco and I am 48 - where did I go wrong :confused:
 
ive recentley baught a td5 disco 2 aswell. got her looking stunning on the bodywork but things keep popping up recentley like steering box sprung a leak then heater plugs died. so its got to be mechanicaly perfect first before she starts looking better i.e bigger wheels etc
