De wiper it!!

BennWilson 12th March 2012 20:28

I am doing! Need to find a grommit though. Plus, need to stop my dad bitching about the importance of a rear wiper haha!

BennWilson 13th March 2012 16:14

Bought some primer today. It is hard to get Mauritius Blue spray paint but I will be trying to get some for cheap and spraying my grill that colour and my chevrons white. I didn't get any pics of the steelies today, but tomorrow definitely!

vtr-marc 13th March 2012 18:41

Theres a grommet under your rear seats mate :)

BennWilson 13th March 2012 23:24

Guess I will be removing the rear wiper tomorrow then!

1.1 Desire Progress Thread // Black steelies and Chevrons Primered.
 
Steelies -



Chevrons in primer, ready for white spray!

BennWilson 13th March 2012 23:47

Comments Welcome! Criticism too lol

vtr-marc 14th March 2012 07:41

i would stick a vt front bumper and side skirts on it! leave it a flatty tho ! de aerial it also
smoke headlights and get her lowered ! 50mm all round would look sweet spesh if u get them steelies banded!

BennWilson 14th March 2012 12:29

I'd need new wings though then right? Don't have the money for all that!

vtr-marc 14th March 2012 12:39

save a little by little, takes time dude but all worth it in the end :)

BennWilson 14th March 2012 12:51

I know, but I need to sort out the bonnet marks first, save for MOT etc. It will take a long time.

vtr-marc 14th March 2012 14:00

id rattle can the bonnet matt black, keep the chevrons black and t-cut the rear badges black, imo will look schweet

BennWilson 14th March 2012 14:30

That sounds like an awesome idea. I was thinking of a black bonnet.

vtr-marc 14th March 2012 15:13

Black and blue ftw!

BennWilson 14th March 2012 15:35

Quick Photoshop of a design.


vtr-marc 14th March 2012 15:41

Smoke the fogs too! And black out your grill :) look sweet then dude

BennWilson 14th March 2012 15:44

Black grill, mauritius chevrons? And yeah I will smoke fogs

BennWilson 14th March 2012 15:55



This?

vtr-marc 14th March 2012 16:07

Looks bad ass! Don't you think?

BennWilson 14th March 2012 16:31

Hell yeah!

vtr-marc 14th March 2012 16:39

do all that with next to nothing buddy, just little subtle changes, totally changes the whole look

BennWilson 14th March 2012 16:42

Well I learnt that poundland primer is good ;D So then I can get two cans of matte black 500ml cans from Halfords for ~£15. My mates dad mixes paints so he can get me some mauritius spray as I can't find any

vtr-marc 14th March 2012 16:47

your on to a winner there mate, two main things for me would be lowering and wheels from then, either banded steelies or some nice vtr or vts alloys would look nice, if u havent already, click on the signature link for ricky p, only guuy id let work on my car, unless u can do it yourself that is :)

BennWilson 14th March 2012 16:48

Does he charge a lot for spraying?

vtr-marc 14th March 2012 16:53

give him a call and ask mate i cant say how much.

BennWilson 14th March 2012 16:57

I probably will do tomorrow

BennWilson 14th March 2012 20:05

Every time I look at that black bonnet it makes me want it more!

BennWilson 15th March 2012 12:38

Bumpty bump

BennWilson 19th March 2012 13:18

Looking for alloys with tyres now.

BennWilson 29th March 2012 12:34

Got these for £130 :D Great condition, new tyres.


m11ler 29th March 2012 12:41

Got a bargain there mate!

BennWilson 29th March 2012 12:43

Tell me about it! Was worth the 3 hour round trip. They didn't come with bolts though, will my bolts I have on the steelies be okay as I want to fit these later.

second that, iv just picked up some vtr alloys boltless?:wall:

BennWilson 29th March 2012 12:47

I can get them cheap anyway I think, but it saves time if my bolts already on the steelies fit

GazWatson 29th March 2012 14:08

Lovely wheels to be added, will be better than the box standard. As for your rear lights I'm not a fan of them but if you smoke them more then will suit the car better.

jayline 29th March 2012 14:19

i love the progress so far mate, and them wheels will look the nuts i reckon! and what a bargain at 130!!!!

Haha thanks mate! I know, was well chuffed with them! Going to primer the grill later and spray it black to match the wheels. White bolts and white chevrons is the plan too (:
