[QUOTE=yorkie;2475817]one of the lads is uniqueshowcars did this.......

comments peeps.... could be the futare....so maybe for sale (well had an offer)

:y: that looks mint apart from the bonnet i think a black and white checked bonnet with those steels ftw :y: :cool:

for some reason, i quite like that!! very unique whether it will look as good in the flesh i dont know!!

Liking the wheels, but the bonnet not so much

Really like the wheels but not the bonnet mate.

wheels are mint but maybe instead of black in the middle do it the same colour as ur car

the bonnet do it like a school chalkboard looks mint seen it done

get a rusty bonnet lol

Looks really smart :)

i just dont think those alloys finish it off

iv always been a fan of this car, and to be honest, still am!

cheers peeps i have plans i think the rusty bonnet is over done now and the time has past burning bonnets is the new thing but i do not fancy it!!!


look out for updates coming soon!!!!

Don't go for a rusty bonnet. Overdone. I still think you should do those rims though! As someone said, the centre coded to the bodywork might look good. Thought i read somewhere you were selling up though? Might be wrong lol.

them rims are mint, not sure on the camo but might look better in the flesh

never seen that done before!! any pics of it??

its brand new in the scene

get it sold mate and go jap u no u wanna

burning bonnets ??

is that a rusty look or what ?? :)

keeping sax ''just one more year'' again

new ''custom'' wheels coming in next few week

and finally update time

new more euro wheels borbet a's painted to colour match the leather.....
and m3 style rear lights.....





the only one i have at the mo i off out tonight with a photographer so better pics coming 2morra!!!!

comments welcomed on the new items........

Lights are looking sweet mate :D :D :D

also, with the wheels, the outside of the rim blue and the inside the colour it is, or the other way round :)

Lights do look really good on your car, i think we done a good swap there ha

looks a million times better. good choice

get some good pics taken.

Like the wheels, not the colour.
Fair play they may match the interior but that 'off white' doesnt work on the outside of the car imo.

looks sweet

very nice mate lookes mint

looks good on them wheels, car sits abit high now imo, plus the wheels would look alot better in just normal white

I like the wheels!! :D

what the hell are you on about mate, the car is brilliant, you odviously do not have a clue what you are talking about!!!!:wall::wall::wall::wall:

Looks loads better mate, much more euro now

Who the fook wrote that??

Need a slap tbh!!!!


YORKIE - Did the lights de-mist ok mate??

calm down mate. everyone's allowed an opinion.

with the old wheels on, i agreed with him.

but it looks much better now with the new wheels.

wheels are much better but i still dont think they are the wheels for your car...

sorry mate dont really like the wheels ,i can see the look u are going for but dont think them wheels match the car ,there is better euro style wheels about

cheers for the coments peeps keep them coming...

next thing the front is coming down from 40mm to 60mm.... will sit very well then
i feeling to change the front end also

it does have a bit of reverse rake at the moment.

there is something that doesnt work about the front. i dont know how to fix that though. the only euro mk1 that i like is saxohollic's. maybe do something similar to his front end?

Hmmmm not sure mate.

I think colour doesn't suit the car IMO.

imho marc, its still a long way from euro, like you said it will go lower... so thats one thing covered, but also, think you should get the early mk1 grille and have the chevrons taken out, look much better than a meshed grill that just anyone can do with 20 minutes free time. Plus the exhaust, get a diesel exhaust and have the hole in the bumper filled.
The bonnet, id have it standard over how yours is, plus the aerial, that needs smoothing over, and the angel eyes arnt awful euro, but then again, standard mk1's look pretty gash. Then for the front bumper, should get the verical slats taken out, and leave the thick horizontal one, to kind of match the grille if you went with the grille i suggested.

Think that would make the car alot more euro, otherwise all it has is smoothed bumpers/bumpstrips that are really unique to the car, and the colour, everything else is a common mod really.

Not having a dig, its a nice car, but i think to go euro, it still needs quite abit of work

Them alloys are the tits :P

colour goes well imo, lowering a bit more ??

thats all i am doing smith plus smoothing fogs also
need to ting on about headlights tho

i dropping front to 60mm because at mo it on 40's that should sit the tyre on the arch nice

yes saxo89 the lights are fine mate

Lush mate i reallylove this car i want to go euro not got the money though, Them wheels are nice :y:

the wheels and lights are a step in the right direction, think the bumper will look gash if u smooth the fogs in, will just look like a round lump no lines or definition, car needs to go lower, 60mm on im guessing borbet A's 7x16" will mean quite abit of scrub on full lock unless u remove the liners.
