its sitting lovely :) looks nice mate. like dannyboy172 said, not keen on the grille. nice motor tho
 
looks good, that grill reminds me, i want a cheese sandwich for later.

other than that, love it :) nice mods :)

Yeah all looks superb bar the grill, you might be able to sell them on but I guess painet black would be better than nothing.

Looks like it'd be a bit of a beast with the mods though, any engine work done to it?
 
i dont have the standard grills (as these come on the car) lol i could get them but i like the fact of all that money on the front of my car :P which i didnt pay for ;)

not done any internal engine work YET!!! :P air filter and full exhaust... 182manifold. decat (and a sports cat in my room) and a magnex cat back. not slow tho, ran a 14.7 at pod. hoping for better tho :)
not sure to go big N/A power or a turbo. or what company to use, as K-tec is a MISSION!

ahh mate not a fan of those grills at all dude sorry, dont see why you would do that to a cup, ah well each to their own, enjoy it pal ;)
 
Get rid of the grills! if you got rid of then it would me awesome! who the hell wants a cheesegrater on the front of there car? theres a ff around here and i think it looks awful!!!! Obviously do what you want its your car like!!!
 
love the car, perfect height too!!

dont like the grills either, cheapens the whole car in my opinion! apart from that it looks spot on!
 
i was thinking "that is awesome"

...then i saw the cheese grater!!!

fair play though mate, if it came with it.

...i'd still change it though!
 
yeh i would of kept the under bonnet cover also, but hey mine didnt have a engine bay cover when i bought it ack

oh yes guess what im another one against the "cheese grater's"

sorry mate lol
 
cheers 4 al the comments, gonna get the grills sprayed black with a silver trumpet for the viper. got the brakes direct from hi-spec not cheap but worth every penny!! no engine covers on the cups as standard, but i fink the carbon 1 looks gud.
 
I was thinkin....nice cup!...Then seen the Grill! (I used to have it bak in the day) - Wisened up and went bak to std!

Other than that a nice bus!
 
nice car mate :) but if i was you id ebay the front grills and put the money towards some standard ones! if u get anything for them that is :P
 
^^ tell me about!! if it ain`t standard then its crap! just cause mine stands out from the rest of the cups (they al look the bloody same), but i`m gonna spray them black wiv silver trumpet for the viper, then possibly spray me rims black. cheers for the comments.

hmm maybe looks better in black! for me tho id still go standard! bein the same as a standard 172 cup isnt all that bad coz they look awesome! and im not sure bout the black wheels! i owned a 182 in artic blue few years ago and i bought the antricite trophy wheels for it! when i sold the car i sold the wheels to my mate who still owns a 172 cup! in my opinion the silver wheels looked better on his 172 cup than the darker anthricite ones.
 
looked mint till the last few pics :( Lose the grills, you know it makes sense ;)
