as for the fronts Im gonna take out the runners from a couple of front seats from a saxo up the scrappy then just get then welded on! And hey presto full set of recaros which will look amazing :-D

one of the seats needs to be reupholstered but ill get that done when i get the time, I'll probably drive about without a passengers seat till its done ha!

LOL sounds good! i need a new rocker cover so if you see one at silverlake get me it, ill pay you back! :y: having no passenger seat should save you a bit of weight (and fuel) ;) think you should get a show cage instead of the rear bench though :cool:

i'll have a look but i dunno when im next gonna go up silverlake mate :n: tbh i dont think i'd bother with a cage unless im gonna track slag the car as i think a show cage will just add un needed weight and all be it will look smart i wanna spend my money getting the car mint :y:

wheels, scratch, reupholster that seat then i think by then my car will need a good service and then i'll decide what to do next :y: but im thinking cam's, throttle bodies then remap ^.^

well i have some good news...the sub is gone! As have the rear seats and carpets :y:

gonna go down a slightly different route now from the other seats as i couldn't justify putting such heavy beasts in a car which is meant to be light.

Small Update

Decided to scrap the audi recaros and im gonna go put my car on a bit of a diet :y:

So Far

- Stripped out the rear seats
- Taken out the sub

Its not a lot but its a start ;)

To Do

- Front buckets
- Driver and passenger side 3 point harness (in lellow)
- Sort out scratch
- Get the alloys touched up
- Catcam 708's
- Re-map

I was thinking about getting some itb's but its just money I dont think I could justify spending when I'm gonna buy something with a bit more ooomph when insurance isnt stupidly high!

Watch this space :afro:

Blerghhh

dunno 25th April 2011 20:00

Been a while since I posted anything up on my thread so thought I would.

after deciding the bite the bullet and keep her I was get everything sorted as I said I would do before so if anyone knows/recommends and body work companies around the Southampton area PM Me!

Things To Do Next

- Get the rear seats back in
- Have a good polish
- Get back on the road
- Have some fun :y:

Update

So I got a bit bored sat around doing nothing and decided to see how easy it is to dewiper a saxo.

It looked easy in some of the guides so I decided to give it a go myself and I got very impatient with the rear nut :wall: so out came the hacksaw :panic:



I think it looks load better and just makes the back end look that bit let busy :y:

I've also stripped out the back and removed the sound proofing and now it sounds so good inside the car :panic:



I've put the carpet back in but I've managed to loose 3 of the little rubber things which hold the carpet down over the soundproofing so a little trip up the scrapyard maybe on the agenda soon :y:

I might also have a look at getting a show cage because tbh the back with no seats just seems a bit empty...
having buckets and harness's doesnt bother me as I think the standard seats arent too bad.

Krys_23 28th April 2011 16:59

Loving the procomp, i want.

dunno 4th May 2011 20:23

Small update;

Got my stickerbomb book come through so decided to give it a go!







I know the ones covering my scratch don't look the best but its better than nothing and is only a temp fix :D

Next up...show cage :y:

dunno 8th May 2011 13:18

Update:

I finally got around to sticking my stickerbombed bits onto my car and took some quick photos.





The photos are pretty cack but Im sure you'll get the jist.

I also wanna thank tom "UKtom" for showing his lovely face whilst I was stickerbombing :y:

I got them dirt cheap off of a mate but i decided not to fit them in the end as there bloody heavy and i wanted to strip my car :y:

a full set on ebay, providing you can find them is 350-500 quid depending on the nick.
To be honest i wouldn't bother in getting some for a saxo as the rear bench would be a pig to fit and you might aswell get some 106 Gti leathers for like half the price.

tomsmarty 8th May 2011 19:34

Love it mate, all the black looks really good :y: Actually like the mirror caps aswell
