1.1 east coast progress
 

i was ment to make this when i first joined but i put it off so now it begins the progress thread

the day i got it (12th april)





first thing i done was spray the caps black (Please excuse the spoiler it was put on as an experiment)



bought bought a new cheapish radio and Sub amp and speakers



and my exhaust im having modded to fit



this is it so far...all comments welcome :)

first car i guess? need to get some alloys and dont use that spoiler xD quite nice though mate

Looks tidy, as Davyy said needs some alloys, lowering but looks a good base! Have a look at my thread as iv got a eastcoast aswell :y:

Yeah is my first car totally standard when i bought it
I would love alloys but problem is its a 3 stud wheel and its like hens teeth getting a set of alloys

Tesco trolley:p

Well i got a new kit for the Sax

Door side Panel....


Front Before...



Front After...


Rear Before...


Rear Durning...


Rear After....




The Sides needs holes drilled and well i dont want to do it and mess up so i will need help from someone with them lol

Wooww what a transformation ! Looks awesome :D

Thanks :)

Looking good man :y: Front end looks great! not a fan of the spoiler though :n:

Thanks mate...the spoiler is off it and i have a VT spoiler now

Had one of these as my first car, never modded it as I had no money :homme:

Good progress so far, liking the morrets and grill. You thought about painted steelies if you can't find any decent alloys? Could look quite smart

Looks nice mate you getting the vt sides too?

The vt sides are in my shed just need holes drilled first

Looks really well will be nice with the full kit on

Looks smart. Id change it to a 4 stud asap tbh.

Anyone have any ideas on what else i can do ??

i got some new alloys and a set of springs :P

nice progress mate, get rid of the spoiler and your onto a winner (y)

agreed, minus the spoiler and nice car there!

small update..


the wheels beside the car :)


and the rear :P

you don't need to drill holes to fit the kit, you can bond it on with tigerseal, but the rear arches need cutting which will be made apparent to you when you line the rear vt arch up with the body

Had the kit all lined up rear arches fit perfectly and the front just about fits :)

looks nice mate, what id do is get some blue mirror caps and dewiper!

do you know where i could find a set of mirror caps?

Im getting my mirrors carbon Dipped

i went up to the car last night (as it sittingher house i live in at the atm)
i put kit on with the bolts already on it to see i now underst what it was like and i now understand what you mean by the arches needing cut

VT kit on

i like the front end mate looks awesome good luck with the rest of the car

Thanks :)

Woah looking good dude !!

Thanks :)

looking good mate looks so shiney in that last photo

everyone is saying to me its shiney in that pic but it was really dusty so i must be doing something right
cus the polish only cost me £2

:y:

so have you cut them?

Not yet...i dont think i should do it and the person that will either cut them or tell me who would cut them is back from florida in a week

its easy tbh, just draw around the vtr arch and cut abit upward of that line

im not trusted with an angle grinder anymore after wht i done last time :zainy:

Afew new bits:P

New pipe to replace the damaged one in the engine
mirror caps (Needs sprayed)
and Saxperience Stickers(waiting for one more) i wont be putting these on until i have my rear windows tinted .

once uve cut them is it two bits of metal together ....... after cutting do ya need to treat the metal ir weld two skins of metal help

I went over them in red oxide :)

just a small update
