i then couldn't decide how much to lower the car by an what wheels to put on???????? in the end i opted for lowering it 60mm at the front and the rear torsion bar matched. cheers to manic motors :) i also went for standard vtr rims sprayed black.

then went through the trouble of bonnet raisers. only a small mod but looks good in my eyes.




collo 17th October 2009 01:54

due to me living in doncaster at the time and always travelling back to scarbrough my car became filthy in a short space of time so gave the belly of it a clean and the inside of the arches

Before



After

collo 17th October 2009 02:07

then decided to give the car a good scrub and try and get rid of some of the tar on the bottom of the door and sills and some of the grime off the engine.




collo 17th October 2009 02:14

collo 17th October 2009 02:16

now for the inside, dvd player fitted


collo 17th October 2009 02:27

colour coded trim. not too much just the part in the centre as u can see and the two blower surrounds at both sides. not too keen on painting the glove box handle, speaker covers, door handle etc.


collo 17th October 2009 02:33

as you can see ive now got a smiley grille due to my other one flyin off at high speeds 70 ;) lol din't really want one of these due to them been quite common but they're well built. considering painting the surround so its colour coded with the car but not too sure as ive seen a few about and they look bodged because the paint doesn't match up. so im in two minds! any suggestions???????


collo 17th October 2009 02:36

few more pics to add tomorrow stripped out, strut brace, aero wipers, twin fan???

collo 17th October 2009 11:26

few bits needed to be done in the near future! thinking of removing the door pillar sticker because the one thats on has had it. but the paint underneath might be brighter than the rest of the car hhhmmm???? also need to find a passangers side CLEAR fog light lense as the one that on now is frosted :( also a tow eye cover for that hole in the front bumper. was thinking of a 106 gti front bumper 2 cold air feed pipes where the fogs should be ??? will a 106 bumper fit and will it need modifying much? !help please!

collo 17th October 2009 12:17
