Not quite 30% all round like Suki

Roughly 30 at the back and slightly lighter at the front plus the sunroof got done to match :cool:

Fog lights coming off soon to finish off the front end
Bodyshop for some smoothing and colour coding next weekend followed by the Clifford which should have been fitted today, being fitted by Reevesy (the ledgend that is)

Thanks for all the comments, im really happy with the front end now and the 'fresh' look :)

RedB 10th February 2008 23:05

Few more pics from today...







Can anyone tell me what thes two plugs are for?





Think the smaller grey one is for the old sidelights...the new lights dont come with fitting for this and i dont know what to do with the spare hole i'v got for a third light as well (on the outside/right hand side of the three lights)

Rep for plug answers

Fitting guide up tommorow after my new carpet is picked up and cleaned :d

d4r3n 10th February 2008 23:08

Tough to please ;) :p

Thanks for all the comments people :y:

adamsax 13th February 2008 17:49

The brown plug it for the auto-adjustment of the standard headlights which is now dormant with your angels.

Did you not have too chop your old sidey plugs and wire them on to the halo's?

Anyway, brown plug is deffo for adjusting your beam :y:

Viper 13th February 2008 18:25

i would love to help you out with what wire is for what with ur angels, but i have a load of loose wires with mine!! :panic:

looks sexy as fuck. i will feel privileged if i do end up going in her to nurburg :A:

Wiring is all sorted mate ;)

Need to get a date booked but the car will be finished bodywork and interior wise by end of March/April when the roll cage has been sprayed and fitted

Just Cams/ECU to be fitted and mapped before i look at throttle bodies which may be a possiblity before i sell up!

Thanks for the nice comment bud

Like them but i may soon swap them for a set of Ultra Smoked Angels with Brighter ring and a full Xenon upgrade if i cant get an HID kit that will fit without melting the lenses :p

Update on the new Red GTI Carpet im cleaning up at the moment soon as it will be fitted over the next 3 days and i also still need to finish of the fitting guide for that and the wiring/fitting guide for these lights so that will also be up shortly!

Cheers
Red :)

Adam_Q 14th February 2008 06:00

Plans are good dude... but why would you spend all that money on something.... then sell up!!! Really pointless!

and the third hole is for the indicators u have to use the fitment off you standard light it just clips in

Dan 14th February 2008 10:30

Car looks wicked mate, headlights spoil it for me though.

Liam777 14th February 2008 10:35

wallsy 14th February 2008 11:30

I think the new lights make it look really smart, good choice :y:

Viper 14th February 2008 19:01

whats the difference between the angels you have now and the ultra smoked ones?

if anyone says they're darker, they will receive a nice shiny red blob!

Im not quite sure!
I know on Mk2's the Ultras are better quality, easier to fit and slightly brighter but i couldnt say for Mk1's until i look at getting a set ;)

Little Update 19/2

Red GTI carpet finally cleaned and going in tonight along with the wiring guide which will be completed for Mk1 Angels ;)

Red :)

Adam_Q 20th February 2008 13:37

Cool Cool!

So is it in now????

Update 20/2

Carpet is fully fitted and looks great despite the odd bit of poorly removed carpet from the old donor car (owner couldn't use tools and must have been blind :sad:) which has left around the handbrake and gearstick a little bare but these parts will be sprayed black along with the doorcards before they are flocked and the quickshift is fitted along with the passengers harness :)

Hidden all of the cabling and re-wired up everything plus a few little trick controls ;)

Guide up later once i get some decent snaps of the carpet as it looks now
I am very happy with the Red/Black look on the inside and it looks great, you can see a real contrast against the carpet and everything else :y:

Interior is almost finished and i had a new Clifford alarm fitted last Sunday by Reevesy on here which cheered me up a lot as that also has lots of added extras as well as actual making my care more secure and safer

Roll cage is the next big mod before finishing touches leading up to show season ;)

Cheers
Red :)

Adam_Q 20th February 2008 19:59

Nice one but need pictures ;)

Wayne 21st February 2008 00:21
