looking good and clean there dan.

dan-sport 14th July 2011 12:21

mate i've never cleaned a car so much haha

dan-sport 1st August 2011 15:48

small update:

i've painted my front calipers from black to yellow, i wasn't 100% i wanted to do this as i didn't know how it would look but thought i could always change it back anyway, i just hoped it would brighten things up abit.

before:


after:



and with the wheel back on:



then one of the otherside:



i think its added just the right amount of colour to the car without going overboard.

its not perfect by any means, needs another good coat but ran out of it atm so gonna have to get some more.

tingaling 1st August 2011 16:23

I like it mate

dan-sport 1st August 2011 16:26

cheers mate i think it just helps brighten it all up abit.

next on the list:

paint rear calipers
touch up places on the front calipers
wind deflectors
white sidelights

i can't decide between 6000k hids or just buy some white headlight bulbs to help give it that fresh look for cheap

i really can't decide

dan-sport 10th August 2011 10:48

i've added a list of my plans

P311ATT 10th August 2011 11:12

Looks alot better with the yellow. What paint did u use for it?

dan-sport 10th August 2011 12:00

I used hammerite mate

dan-sport 20th August 2011 19:13

i wanted some hids but can't jusify £40 on bulbs atm but had heard good things about 100watt xenon bulbs so i got some only cost £5 and im very happy with them tbh gives the car a nice clean look.

50/50:



all done:


vtcarl 20th August 2011 19:24

If that's a VTR, how comes its got a passenger Air bag? I really thought it was only VTS's that had this?

Whats the little black button next to the Arm/ disarm switch of the air bag.

dan-sport 20th August 2011 20:43

alright mate basically i fitted the airbag switch as i hate blanking plugs/plates so that got rid of the last one and the button is my cobra alarm diss-arm i have to press a code into it to turn the alarm off with out the fob present

logic_guy 20th August 2011 20:43

Oh right.

So its a dummy switch basically?

I must say, i love the OEM 'head unit' LOL

dan-sport 20th August 2011 21:38

Everything there apart from alarm, heated rear window and hazards is just there for show tbh mate. Ye i love my standard unit lol sounds decent especially with the sub wired in.

I've just ordered a usb interface for it. It just plugs into my cd changer port so now i dont have to keep changing cds all the time and i can have alot more selection.

heres the one i've ordered:

Ive bought a few things over the past few days one being some wind deflectors which ill post a pic of when they come, the other is some sand paper as the first owner of the car painted the bump strips so im going to have a go at re-doing the black on the front bumper as its been chipped away over the years.

Lastly i have always wanted to do it so i thought why not an got myself a clay bar kit


dan-sport 31st August 2011 18:01

So i fitted them an took a few pics only on the drive though




vtcarl 31st August 2011 18:40
