looks pretty aggressive with black bonnet and pins i think, i'd personally leave off the chevs. but i might keep eyes out for black bonnet
|
I prefer it without the chevrons IMO

Without ftw |
looking good mate
|

  |

You definately need a new front bumper to finish it off with some black halo lights
I recon gloss black bump strips would look better and go with the bonnet well imo Fitted my rear lights and my indicator bulbs don't work on the front or rear lmao - gonna have to have a fiddle around to get them working before Saturday |
had that prob with mine. It's the links with the lights where the bulb wires meet the socket
|
I fixed them now mate - all working :)
By the way - you know how that bloke told you that all the bulbs for the rear lights where new as he replaced them for you You need to phone him up and give him a fucking as they where very old - had to replace a few of them due to corrosion and peel on the orange indicator bulbs |
Gloss black strips would look insane.
I personally say loose the citeron badge on the bonnet. Is that rim tape i see aswell? :P |
Oh I will mate the car was so fuckd from web u got it. To much oil dodgy bulbs dodgy brakes he's a idiot. Yer it's posi blue rim tape supposed to be glow in Dark but doesn't very well :s
|
quite like the front end
|
im not really fussed on the bonnet sorry mate, never really liked the smoothed mk2 bonnets, its different though and as long as you like it :y:
|
imo it would look miles better without the chevrons. And the bonnet raises make it look like its just been in a bump. Would look smart without those two things imo :y:

Will discuss some ideas with you tomorrow mate ;)
Cars looking the Sex imo - the crash did ya a favour really coz it looks miles better now -once them chevrons are posi blue they will suit the bonnet well imo mate :y: Gloss black alloys and gloss black bump strips would give your motor the Jizz factor imo If I stop down yours mate or Visa-versa we'll get ur alloys refurbed and sprayed up like new |

bit of a update now tho. i accidently left a bleed cap open on my radiator so the engine overheated for about 10 miles :(. the heat warning light didnt come on and temp was a bit of the max limit and the general temp hits at just above half way anyway. problem is i now have a strong smell of burning coolant in the car HG failure? hope not :panic::panic::panic::panic: |
Just tighten the bleed screw back up and check the oil/coolent level and top up as much is needed and should be fine mate - this happened to the MG and it was fine
|
yeah once i tigtened it the heat dropped back to just above half way and when i got back home i topped it up to max and bled the whole system and tightened them back up properly lol. hope it'll be ok i just hope HG failure isnt there cuz i got car booked in for body shop for end of jan doing crossmember :) and that isnt coming cheap TBH

found a guide today on how to wire up a xbox into a headrest tv and make one. Problem is it costs like £400 to do lol. you need to buy a mini tv. cut it out the headrest and put it in. get a adaptior for the ciggy lighter. plug into that and for the xbox get the covertor that changes plug sockets and do it via that way. is a thought for future :) maybe for when its all fixed some buckets and a showcage in black????? |
Dunno mate - what colour is the bonnet - is it black or grey?
If its grey than spray alloys and cage grey + maybe roof then Visa-versa if its black Or you could stick to black and have your bonnet sprayed by that guy in Thorne by Gloss Black |
like the car bud, i prefer the mk2 with a grille but still looks awesome
|
Just had a thought mate - go two tone - Icelandic Grey on the bottom would look pretty sexy ;)
|
WOOP EVERYTHINGS IN POST (I THINK) so fingers crossed everythings being put back together next week or week after?
