I wish I was a Mechanic: kae0r's Posi Blue MK2 VTR
 

My first car, passed 02/06/10, bought 11/06/10. I know NOTHING about cars, but I love it.

Wasn't sure if I was going to be able to keep my beautiful car this year due to rising insurance premiums and some GOLF GTI COCK smashed up the side of my car: see below. Anyway turns out I got her insured for 545 quid and fixed for 450 and she's as good as new if not better.

I wish I was a mechanic: My mentality = Research, Find Guide, Follow.

Crash :(

COOL STORY BRO WHATCHA-GONNA-DO TO YOUR CAR?

Yellow = Thoughts - please comment :)
Plans:
Tints 80%back/70%rear
Wheels 15" VTS in Black?
De-wiper
De-pin
Headlight inserts Black
40mm front 45or50mm back Lower Apex 40mm springs with bilstein B6 dampers
Red capillaries Not sure...
t-cut badges
After market alarm TOAD AI606 t2
Exhaust Magnex Cat-Back 3.5" inward rolled XSC01

ICE:
Front Speakers Hertz DSK 130
Back Speakers

Amp #2 Audison SRx4


Maybe:
Quickshift If I can find one that isn't ugly
Air filter K&N?

Bonet pins OTT?
Cool tow hoop 50/50 on this

Aim: Create a tastefully modded, clean and beautiful car that doesn't look modified but like its had sporty extra's added from the factory

p.s. sorry this isnt the most amazing thread for the saxperience forum troll car porn searchers, its really just for me to track my progress and feel good about myself [/carebear]

Shame someone did that to your car mate. But the plans sound good so it should all come back together.

Purchased magnex 3.5" exhaust which is on route via parcelforce as we speak and some inserts - will be fitting this weekend.

Planning to wash tonight so will take some pics of how it is atm. Got no bloody internet at home so god knows how I'm going to get them up.

Also planning to lower 50mm this month! :o

Nice car and like the plans a lot. Good luck with it.

Get up some more pictures mate now that shes in a better state :y:

IMHO -40mm isn't worth it for the hassle you have to go through with the torsion bar. I'd have -50 or 60mm tbh.

I lowered one of mine 40mm and it pissed me off everyday seeing it. I couldn't be arsed to mess around with the torsion again. I sold it on and the lad that bought it lowered it 60mm and it sat like a beaut.

Listen to her ^^^

and you can tint your front windows, just not legally
