Looks really nice.

I couldn't live with a full red interior but it certainly goes best with GPW!

That's not correct I'm afraid, you could buy GPW + full red interior in Japan

(and Moonrock full red in the UK + Japan).



Looks like you've done a good job with your car

apart from the number plate

Chris.
If anyone is interested

I've just been looking through my collection of JDM brochures doing a bit of further research on this

and depending on MY the 'Custom Color Plan' in Japan allowed pretty much any colour to be ordered with any interior colour including full red.

no mate,i know some lads will think i cheaped out but with the engine bay been black,it honestly didnt bother me.it would be a big job to remove it added to the expense of painting the bay,oh well.

inside the boot/rubbers/tail light all gp though.

That looks amazing. Best wheels in the world, best colour too. Facelift nose finishes it. Awesome.
