No, the previous owner went a little over the top...

He added "04 model":

center console
steering wheel
side door panels

When i went over to the UK to buy it i had to leave all the original parts hanging up in his shed + the hard top stand

He works for Honda marine so he had quite a few contacts...

thanks for all the comments
I do think those changes freshen the look of the car up a bit more, espically that later centre console and those wheels

One of my previous owner put those 17's on the car and I could never go back.

Shame you ahd to leave all the bits behind including that HT stand.

I prob won't be adding anything to the car as i want to keep the car 100% standard... i'd rather spend my money on keeping the car running 100% right.

saying that... i do only have it a few weeks... so lets see what happens

thanks again guys

A fantastic setting for your picture.

I've noticed the surround which is above and behind the side window which is normally black has been colour coded. I personally prefer it black, but it's good to see others trying different ideas.

If you look at the rear bumper you'll notice the black surround which the low down rear fog light sits in has also been colour coded

Not seen those windows surrounds colour coded before.

I think it actually looks quite good the hardtop part by the windows colour coded. Makes the HT look lower...
