This is my zim-zimmer, I got it 2 years ago and it looked pretty gay, over the last few months it has really transformed into what you can see below, the main difference being all the parts picked out in black.

I have carried out all the work myself with a little help from mates, first to be done was the audio, in the 2 seater cab there is a pair of aluminum coned competition kicker components, in the rear there is a pair of Kevlar vibe components and there is a custom sub box in the passenger foot well with a 10 inch vibe sub and 1300w amp, all this runs from 3 amps fed from an alpine head unit with direct ipod interface.

From the floor up it has 17 inch BSA livewire rims on Pirelli tires, new ECB vented discs all round, blue painted calipers are to come. The side grills were chrome but I painted them black with dark blue coming from inside.

The whole feel for the car is to get everything black and silver, to make the details stand out but not be in your face. Recently I added the black tail lights, these really make a difference. Within the next 2 weeks the car will be getting a little closer to the tarmac with fully adjustable Pi suspension coming.

The boot is also getting an overhaul, being relined in black canvas throughout and in the cab a new push button start,
