My flamer Progress thread (Pic Heavy)

[Drobbly]

Ive been on here for over a year now and thought i would start a progress thread.
So i Brought my car back in march 2009 and didnt really do much to it other than clean it ect and used it to learn in and pass my test in..





I havnt really Done much to it, just added little bits on as i went

soon got myself a few stickers (not to everyones taste) and Silver Visions all round and a shorter ariel..
which i think improved it alot..












Then it stayed like that for months while i drank all my money away :rasp:
Then i Decided to colourcode the badges, and then i managed to get myself a 172 spoiler from FCS 2010 which was a good find and ofcourse more stickers
Also managed to pick up a induction kit with relocation pipe, which gave the little 1.2 16v a little more grunt
And Got a RS Grill cheep so wasnt complaining ....













Then again it stayed the same for months while i Restored my motorbike xD

Had a little play with my Camera aswell and had a little photo shoot













And a little trip to bournemouth in the summer...



Plans at the moment are to get 172 alloys (picking them up sunday Pics soon)
getting it slammed on its arse!!!
hopefully getting a 172 Rear end to finish the back off
and colourcoding the rest.
Spacers!!! (Do i need Hubcentric? 25mm on rear?)

Im unsure on what to get the alloys refurbed to atm, I was thinking white without center caps? or Black/anthracite

any Feedback/ideas/criticism welcome

Thanks for Reading, hopefully updating soon!

Look great! plans sound good also, tbh i think once u slamm it and get a 172 rear bumper will look spot on.

 

[Drobbly]

yeah, its all planned hopefully getting the bumper next weekend and lowered next month. i think all the bumpstrips need colourcoding aswell though..

Quick update. Just on the way home from Ashbourne on the a54 doing about 40mph and the back end flew out, wheel straight up the curb drifting, poped the tyre then spun right round and ended up in a hedge and ditch :// Broke the Front light, front bumper and the rear tyre. unsure if it was the road conditions or my tyres that cause it, just suddenly went.

















Not to bad considering the road and the crash, could haved been so much worse :/, anyway tempery bodge tomorrow with zip ties and a plaster sticker ,, ooo and Fitting this aswell







Very Good Condition, just needs blacking ..
