Adams ph1 172 ?

Oooooo i like the numberplate.

A fairly expensive one too!

I preferr the first DVLA one tho, The dodgy one looks a little chavy for some reason (imo)
 
they were purchased from carreg.com iirc

thank for the nice comment guys i want to get new plates anyway as the ones suplied arnt very good quality and they have a border which i dont like. i will probly keep them legal then saves a lot of hassle.
 
not much of an update but just some clean pics as the weather was good today!

also notice iv replaced the cone filter with standard box and samco, im waiting for pipercross filter to go in when it arrives :D

blackberry picture fail :(
 
hey people what colour do people think i should spray my interior, I want to do the rear asap, just not sure whether to do it matt black or same as out side?? - or something else???
 
Good effort Ad, that number plate must have been some £££, your rents must love you a lot! Haha!


Look forward to getting a better look at this some point soon, especially now the weather is better.

Matt black would really suit the back of the car IMO, either that or carpeting it with some thin carpet (so its lightweight) and then just keeping a bootnet so you can still use the back without stuff flying around.

"In" pic not working, also I know somewhere you can get tins of primer (half size of the above) but for only £1! Should have said!

IMG00031-20100426-1526.webp


car sits sooo much better on them but i now need spacers as there to far in the arch imo !

+ i kind of like them in gloss black so now debating whether to still pay out to get them refurnished in anthracite hmmmmmmmmm!



sorry for crap pictures
 
lol it was a b**ch (or i had crap drill bits :o ) still its made a hell of a difference and was worth it

and thanks for the alloy comment im seriously thinking of keeping them gloss black now.
