My 151bhp stripped track car*new toys* page6
As some of you may know i bought chris's car a few weeks ago this is how the car was when i bought it.
Stage 1; Removal of ManicMotors Vinals
Iv also:
removed the door pins
Fitted an alarm
Ftter sun visors
Fitted some door speakers and a standard head unit.
And gave it a good clean.
Some pics of the car at the moment, any comments/idea welcome
OPINIONS: Should i take the vinal off the bonnet?

iv decided im going to take the 01 sticker off the bonnet but think the onces on the doors break the colour up as it has a red outline,
i will be tracking if i have the currency!
Aint really got any future plans the enigine is perfect so will just be small personnal touches such as removing sticker(s) and adding some internal lights etc. What are peoples opinions on changes?

Looks nice, Not keen on the vinyls at all!
Maybe take them off, remove rear doorcards and rear parcel shelf trim!
Heatwrap manifold? Ino theres a heatshiled but it does really lower underbonnet temps and i bet the intake still get abit of hot air!

I would actually do very little to this. Take all vinyls off, as a Newcastle fan I couldnt drive a red and white car so would sort that - thats a personal thing though. Just leave as is and enjoy.

yeah i think the vinals are coming off the one on the bonnet is defo coming off!
not sure about the rear doorcards as your talking 1-2kg and it keeps the car looking tidy inside with them on.
yeah saxo-ron im a geordie too black and white would have been better.
yeah im using this as a road car too.
