TomG 4 Report post Posted January 21, 2017 Hi everyone, As you may have guessed my name is Tom & I am currently living in Derby. I bought my GT86 in Sept '14, so I have had it a little while now, and am quite into my detailing which is turning into an expensive hobby. I visit the forums a fair bit to soak up information and get a bit of inspiration. In-fact it is a members modification thread that has inspired me to take the plunge and start looking at adding my first mods myself, so I thought it was time to stop being unsociable and say hello! I am fairly easy to spot if there are any other members in the Derby area, I'm the one that looks like they are driving from the rear passenger seats as I am 6'7" I fit honest! Anyway I have attached a picture for your viewing pleasure! 1 Keethos reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S18 RSG 429 Report post Posted January 21, 2017 Welcome Car looks lovely and clean, I'm sure mine has looked like that at some point in the past. Out of interest, which modifications are you looking into, and what thread gave you the inspiration? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HariboPenguin 116 Report post Posted January 22, 2017 Welcome to the club! The car looks amazing, red's seem to be taking over the midlands at the moment. I've gotten into detailing since getting this car too, used to use a single bucket and sponge on my old car, now I have a cupboard full of detailing gear, an expensive hobby indeed. (worth it though) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lauren 2259 Report post Posted January 22, 2017 Welcome aboard, that is one clean machine! So what mods are you planning? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomG 4 Report post Posted January 22, 2017 Thanks guys, it was Deacon & Smudge's mod thread that I have been watching with interest. Regarding mods of my own, I think I'd like to stick to na, but the first item on my list is wheels and tyres. I love the look of the Japan Racing JR11, but I think it's a bit heavy. I'd like an 18 I think of similar style that's not bank breaking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deacon 1357 Report post Posted January 22, 2017 Welcome on board. Glad you've enjoyed my mod thread 👍 What mods are you thinking of for yours? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomG 4 Report post Posted January 23, 2017 Cheers, as I mentioned I'm thinking wheels and tyres first, been looking at Rays/Team Dynamics/Work this week, and just can't decide! But after that I'll be looking at exhaust/intake and a nice rear wing, nothing too massive though or the girlfriend might realise what I'm up to! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ztox 230 Report post Posted January 24, 2017 I was thinking about what wheels for a while, 0% finance won it for Work in the end and then I just picked the one I liked most. Maybe something to consider if you don't want to break the bank Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
