blacked out 106 lights fitted
http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x45/ashleyfaulconbridge/DSC00995.jpg
test fit

rain has stoped play today so done progress on my car.

[Adam_Q]

Looks good man! Hope your gonna get a pro to paint it though.....

[CHIP]

Looking good. But get m3 lights or something. Dont like those smoked ones

[stu-n-shell]

looks good but as for the smoothed in arches i give them 6 months before your re filling cause of cracks. i looked into doing that when i fitted the vt kit to my 1.1 and was told by my old work mates. that when the car is moving there is more movement in the plastic than the metal wing so eventualy the to will split apart therfore cracking the filler.

[SALTY]

Looks good and fair play to all the work thats going into this project, but isnt it going to look exactly the same as guy sleemans old 106 with vt kit?

Salty

[TomoSAXO1989]

Looks good mate!

[Jackman]

Looks a intresting project.

Don't like the dark lights at all though!

Keep us posted.

[-Ashley106-]

stu-n-shell :
archers will not crack its not just filler in there there bonded on then the gap between wing and body kit as been filled with adhesive then i have skimed a layer of fibreglass on the gap then added a skim of filler it shouldnt crack at all but we will c

adz21 yeah a pro is painting it

salty - its goin a different colour so wont look like the other saxo kitted 106 allso the archers are a dif curve now blended and am blendin in the mouldin on the saxo kit so should look different

thanks for all the good comments progress has been slow since i got it in november but now am puttin my ass into gear and i can 110% say it will be at shows next year

[-Ashley106-]

ow and adz21 thanks for all the interest ill keep this thread up dated in the future

and ill be at trax so ill say hello and make my self nowne... be with rich in his car..

project is on hold for next 2days while we get his car ready for trax am sure he will update his thread on progress today and tomorrows progress big changers for trax and sum good old TLC on the cleaning side of things

[stu-n-shell]

well it looks good any how was just a word of warning. like the front badge looks good what bumper you putting on the front?

[-Richard-]

i keep telling him to get a vt front bumper but hes leaning towards a gti bumper




VT FRONT BUMPER FTW!!!!!

[-Ashley106-]

gti bumper with smoothed bump strips and no fogs in and wide mouthed

carnt use a vt bumper becouse of the lip around the headlights on the 106 bumpers

[stu-n-shell]

gti wont line up rite with arches need to be vt or a subtle vt bodykit front bumper

[-Ashley106-]

ill sort it dont worry

FIBRE GLASS FTW

[Recovery]

looks good mate, keep us updated on the progress

[5AMBO]

unique idea. keep up the good work though

[Sneakydevil89]

seem to remember something like this being done, i think it looks graet. will be interested to see where it goes.

[Mr_suv]

Standard VT* front bumper will look the tits on that mate. I had this idea a while ago. Was planning on getting a white 106 and VT kitting it.

Going to look ace but don't spoil it with a silly great front bumper unless you're going to go mad and kit it all

[Skorpion]

Agree with saxo180.

Big bumper will spoil it! vt kit standard all the way!

[craig180]

Just smooth the top of the bonnet off or cut and shut the middle section with a part of your original 106 bumper

[-Ashley106-]
