Davyy's Mango Flatarch.

[Davyy]

I bought this 1.1 in march time for £500 :) 11mts MOT, 6 mts Tax and its all good :)

This isnt gonna be anything crazy, just the basics as its my first car and as its mango i need to do something to improve my street cred! xD

Heres how it looked at first.

I bought replica cyclones, lexus lights and rear tint for £140.. Ive now sold the lexus lights for £35 but not sure about using the tint.

Heres how it looked with lexus lights and cyclones.

I then put my sisters mk1 rear lights on which are a bit more tinted, alloys have come off cos i need a new driveshaft cos its knocking! So heres how it looks now..

From now my plans are:

- Tint the inner bit of my headlights
- Sort out the driveshaft
- Remove Spoiler
- Lower 50mm all round
- Debadge rear
- Dimma Grill
- Interior which is better than my current playground seats!
- Get a circular backbox bit, but my current backbox is welded on! :(

Nice little bargain you got there, and nice plans so far.. but dude,

Boobs make me smile lol? Worst sticker ever IMO :n:

Looks good mate, good decision on getting rid of the lexarse lights! Will be even better once the plans are finished, although keep your standard grill buddy :)

:o i love that sticker! But till i debadge it, its staying.

I dunno, i just love the dimma's they transform the front end imo, why do you like std grill so much?

Doesn't look too bad with the badges sprayed black tbf mate.

[Davyy]

I dunno, my main plan is to pass lol! Followed by driveshaft, then lowered.. then the litte touches like debadging and grill will come. :)

In general standard bodywork is the way forward!

[Davyy]

Hmm, we'll see :) But from your little pic, your mango looks gorge!

You'll be happy to know, ive removed it :)

[Davyy]

Anyone got cheapish ideas for this?

[rich112]

Remove the red reflectors on the bottom i would say.
As said standard bodywork is the way forward:)

[Davyy]

Yeah was planning on doing that, cheers :)

[williamanderson31]

looks nice mate - de wiper it - nice cheap mod
and imo, i like the mk1 spoiler :)

[Davyy]

Not sure if ill dewiper it :s as sometimes i need the rear wiper :L

[williamanderson31]

i bought some stuff called rain-x which you put on and the water runs straight off the rear window, so i'm not too bothered that mine is de-wipered :)

[Davyy]

Okay mate, ill look into it :y:

[welshy23]

Lower it 60mm not 50mm, i had my VTR at 60mm felt amazing looked amazing and i never really hit anything unlike popular belief.. unless you had a lower strut brace then your fuck a little bit

[Davyy]

I dunno, im only using lowering springs though not coilovers or dampers or whatever.. and i remember reading anything over 50mm you need to do something or something xD

[williamanderson31]

over 50mm, you need different shockies iirc
or use coilies :)

[Davyy]

Bought a vtr backbox off welshy the other day, waiting on an exhaust clamp before i fit it though.. And off to silverlakes on saturday for 2 driveshafts, £20ea which isnt bad i dont think then i can have my cyclones on :D

[KieranYeh]

Get those 60mm spax's at silverlake... or get it lowered 80

Drop it down low as fuck because the 1.1s are on stilts.

then... angel eyes, smoked jewel rear lights, smooth badges, cyclones (minus yellow drums and nuts :n:

And get rid of that terrible sticker :P

GET A THEME GOING.. put oranges on it or something lol, this has potential!

[KieranYeh]

oh, and dewiper, cheap and sooo effective.

[Davyy]

Prev. owner painted the drums and nuts lol, and i will dewiper it soon but i dont want to lower it that ,much.. i was thinking 50 max? :s cos police are hot in fareham and im not declaring anything

[Davyy]

and them spax's may be fucked if they are at silverlakes lol and dont really wanna risk on something important like suspension

[Davyy]

Insurance is a killer, i wanna mod this so bad! :(

[Davyy]

Not much of an update.. Removed my spoiler, looks alot fresher imo..

This is how low I want it to be in the near future..

[Davyy]

My stepdad done it, he said it was on bumpstops he thinks, so not quite that low lol
