Smoked rear lights with this stuff called fly eyes just a film that goes over lights thought about spraying em but this just seemed easier to do.

Did the front lights with some spare film that i had left over from the back, not too sure about it though, just a temp measure till I can afford black angel eyes. Also notice the saxperiance sticker ;)

Alloys arrived this morning, just waiting for pay day so I can get them powder coated black. Then next job will be lowering, any ideas on how far to lower it ? just want a nice look nothing too OTT.

[LukeyC]

Any thoughts ?

[mwflynn06]

Sprayed painted the centre console and air vents today gives it a different look :)

:clapping:

[carlsmith715]

how did you remove the centre console

[mwflynn06]

Was pretty simple there are 2 torks screws just below the cd player and 1 underneath the pull out tray at the bottom. Then you have to take of the 2 plastic covers one is next to the back winder demister and the other is on the far left ( the last plastic cover ). once all them are removed the centre console just pops out. disconnect all the wiring remembering where everything is then just spray it your desired colour. Air vents just pop out with a flat head screw driver.

[t-dogg]

106 leathers would suit the car very nicely

[Scorgie01]

Can you actually tow the car using those straps or are they just for show?

Really smart car though :D

[mwflynn06]

Cheers mate. Yeah if you use the correct bolt to secure it properly otherwise it would just snap i think. I don't plan on being towed though (touch wood) haha
