Looks awesome mate, nice to see more threads with 'euro' in the title going somewhere!
Will keep my eye on this thread, as this has some real potential :-)

I'm quite happy with the supersprint's look at the mo, and it will come in if I don't want to leave my car all 'show' and no 'go' lol.

Thanks dude I love your thread, and saw your feature in Fast Car(I think?), next big thing to do is leather retrim everything! But I don't have a colour yet or any cash lol.

Before anyone else asks I'm gonna sack off taxi'ing people around and deck my car when I get on with its service, its only at 50mm at the moment.

I'll get some more pictures up this weekend.

Winny · 6th October 2009, 19:34

Excuse filth, going to wash on weekend.

Winny · 9th October 2009, 17:46

Ignore the above post to show the tire stretch! I'm after probably some 185's now, I had the wheels off today to wax thoroughly for winter and found some old spacers. Stuck these tight up to my H&R Trak spacers with some longer bolts and pretty much got the stance I wanted to start with lol!

VTomR · 9th October 2009, 17:47

looking sweet fella!

Elliott · 10th October 2009, 13:38

Cheers mate!
Got some nice poke going on there now.
How much lower are you hoping to go?
My fronts are 185's on 8" to give you an idea of the stretch you'll get.
Interior plans sound nice, its just a shame money is the bane of every project
Keep it up

skeltan · 14th October 2009, 18:42

got to agree with that. colour is very unique and looks good but wheels let it down in my opinion. maybe it will look better once slammed, hope thats coming soon

iDaNz_VTR · 14th October 2009, 19:48

looks good mate but i would of hided the zorst of make it more euro but very nice mate

Davo106 · 14th October 2009, 20:03

Not keen on the smoothed boot and bumper, just looks too empty on the back for my liking.

Needs lowering more tooooo

Will look good when its low though

I was going to but if I'm planning on keeping this car for some time I might tinker with the engine too.

Each to his own on the boot/bumper

I had a quick read through your thread and I love your 13"'s. My car will be getting lowered as soon as I get the funds to put it through a full service & MOT which is due soon (

) and to answer other comments I've been daydreaming about some Image billet 14"s but unsure on price and width/offsets, I'm awating an email.

But nothings happening without any brass lol so I'll just wash my car and put a pic up this weekend lolz.

Danborambo · 18th October 2009, 19:49

Dont know how i missed this thread.... so much work into this, and its very nice mate, credit to you for it.
Once its lowered it will be perfect.

Winny · 19th October 2009, 20:34

Thanks for the comments dude!

Still in two minds for wheels, I'm sure going lower and some bigger brakes behind the spoked dish will make them look well(like Elliott's avatar), they do look great in the metal as they are but pictures don't do justice.
The dream is to make it look like this.

Been looking at uprating the brakes anyway seeing as mine need replacing and I have to ask if anyone knows if Wilwood Midilites fit behind a 15" alloy, this website states so but they are 285 mm, which is cutting it close with the calipers.

Last time I checked your progress you were just booked into the bodyshop

New colour looks lush, and the smoothing works well
