First mods

[Oli]

I wanted to learn to walk before I started running so for my first ever mods today I fitted my M3 mirrors, new door speakers, sub and an amp :y:

It got me wondering, what were your first ever mods?

Why, I was planning on doing that next weekend lol.

[steviee90]

my first ever mod on my old car was fitting 6 x 9s and an amp, on the saxo, the first mod i did was upgrading the standard speakers, fitting my head unit and getting some xenons

[rudeboiross]

dewiper!!

[LeeM]

first mod to my saxo was fitting an airfilter then fitting sound system, but it was owned by my mate at the time!
since ive had it ive debadged it(only got the holes filled atm, need to spray it), modified the aerial, moved tweeters from being blu tacked to the dash to the doorcards, fitted a new exhaust, and put the air filter in an enclosure

[gav1513]

if its to a saxo it was exhaust and induction, but first ever mod was and air filter for my '97 1.1 106 cause i thought i owned the road bak then lol

[Sam]

Set of Black Morrettes. Since been sprayed silver

[Mattymcn]

ahh is it hard to fill the holes. was thinking of buying the badges again and spraying them black as i got steelies on atm which are sprayed black.

de badgin is a good idea if 1) you do it properly and 2) your prepared to fill the holes

[LeeM]

ive filled mine with fibreglass from behind, need filler and paint and just never get round to it

[Mattymcn]

ahh right, think i might just stick to sprayin the badges :)
Thanks for lettin me kno how you done it

[LeeM]

theres a reason most people spray/tcut them! im thinking of chipping the fibreglass out and putting badges back on because i know i'll just never get round to finishing off the holes

[Mattymcn]

slight pain to do then? tbh now ive taken the badges off i kinda miss them lol

[swampy]

Hmm where do i start
1st car was an mg metro, to that
fitted a turbo body kit
100 series side skirts,blended in to the arch kit.
Moved the aerial from the wing to a beesting style at the rear
suspension was modified to challange spec, double anti roll bars etc
engine, kent cam fitted,modified carb needle, larger jet, yellow damper spring, modified air intake
head ported
twin chain timing system fitted
jan speed system
wasnt bad for a 1st car!

Bought my filler and paint before I've taken them off so I know I'll do it all in a one-r :D:panic:

[Predator_R32]

Had these type of threads a million times but my first one on ax was alloys, and on saxo was lowering :)

[craigy_87]

think my first mods were a whole bunch of stuff at the same time
vts wheels
266mm brakes
dimma style grille

[PSPDan]

T-Cut rear badge.

Since then I've done uber chavvy footwell neons, new headunit, components for the front, and refurbed a vtr wheel. Yes just 1. Haha.

[wobble_vtr]

first mod was to amp up components and sub,
then air filter, grill, smoke lights, retim headlining, retrim carpet and so on

so there.

[Cal]

whatever cal, I knowz you got neons first...




so there.Not just any neons... www.LeeroyTuning.com superneons and free tints

[stevie_m]

The first job id do is,

Check the brakes/replace pads and paint the calipers. I've always felt working on the stoppers is formost before even thinkin about taking the bhp up.Then work your way up.

The headunit should take a weekend to do... only about 10mins.

Each to there own tho.

Good luck with the tints

[Ashleyp]

on the R, replaced the lexus lights for standard rears

on the S replaced the fuel cap for a standard one ;)

only had the S a week, and moneys tight now, but expect some mods in the future :)
