WOW! didnt take long before you caught the bug 😂😂 Does your iron-x smell like death as well?
Send me a couple of air freshners :wink:. When you planning on getting the turnis refurbed, defo set on silver? loves a good anthracite wheel me :tongueout:😂
or you can remove the 4 bolts from under the car. 2 under rubber grommets near the sill and 2 nearer the centre the car. As above then just remove the wiring and the seat will lift out.
Rears are ok, bottoom halves of the rears just lift out, tops are bolted to the isofix bar with 2 bolts...
damn! haha. Was hoping you still had them as really want a set but he rarely lists them and i always get outbid on them. Gone a little flocking crazy with mine 😂
And yeah thats fair enough, would look good though as you say but going oem+ kind of need to keep them i guess.
Just gets better and better :smile:. What did you end up doing with the flocked dash strips they sent you?
Gets those door cards and rear seats changed though:wink:
If your planning on fitting the sport wings, then you would definatley need spacers as the wheels look lost as soon as you fit them. On my old rep i had 25mm hubcentric spacers and over time had 3 different sets of wheels, and i had no issues with rubbing and it spaced the wheel out pretty much...
Pretty sure she bought it and found out it was a cat C so got rid, now the new owner is selling up. The new owner must only have had it themselves for about a month?
Thanks mate. Thats the plan - Turinis next then a set of cooksports once their back in stock
It is indeed, However i dont really use it as a table but instead it sits in the corner of my room as i like the way it looks. I cant remmeber what its from but the guy did say. An old O.Z Magnesium...
Over the weekend i sorted out the bodywork on the car. Luckily blue doesnt show the dirt well so although its dirty it still looks ok, unlike my old 1.2 which was black 😂.
Stages went in this order
Rinse
quick spray with bug remover
wash with lambs wool mitt
rinse
better coating of...
Fitted the 3/4 front plate, opted for 90mm as someone said that was the size of the recess but after fitting its more like 100mm. Ahh well a great improvement. Also recieved a oil top up kit that fits nicely in the boot, hopefully will never need it but its there and looks good...

@Sam J - If it helps, me tagging him mate
thanks mate, and dont worry i've already ripped it off. NO way anything that poor of a job is going to stay on my car 😂. Im swaying towards the chrome diamonds, look a litle more classy id say
Recieved my front plate. Went to halfords today to pick up a set of ratchet spanners that i ordered as they were on offer. Was going to get some velcro coins whilst i was there but forgot and only realised when i got home :unamused:. Will be driving past again tomrrow so will stop in and get...
Fitted the new CV boot clip and gave the car a wash. Got a little impatient so decided to machine polish my front wing to see how it will turn out. Looks good, and should look even better when spending more time on it. Then touched up a few chips, not perfect but at least they now blend in.
Had...
Cheers bud, got nothing better to do so might as well spend money on the car haha. I was going to but i have just put some AF revive on it the other day so wasnt too bad, plus i had a nightmare getting my last one off.
I managed to get to test a set of prototype (i guess they would be) washer...
Just ordered a 3/4 front plate, decided to go for 90mm rather than 84mm so its will fit the recess better and be a little less obvious that its not a standard plate. Decided to just go for the front plate as it worked out cheaper to buy the rear seperatley off ebay. Also bought some black vinyl...
So i did everything other than machine polish it, as the farmers were harvesting the field opposite so there was a lot of dust floating around and covering the car. Have booked thursday and friday off work so will do it then. Other than that everything was fitted without issues so will just let...
got a few things planned for today:
Recieved my new rs200 badge so get that fitted.
Fit my washer blanks and colour coded boot button that i have been painting over the last few days. Pretty pleased with how they have turned out.
Fit my flocked interior parts that i got off ebay, after a...
Haven't decided yet, im thinking i might go anthacite to match the bullets and my new turinis when i get them, its been an ongoing thing i keep thinking about haha, dunno if i add black to the mix if it will look to busy :confused:. I did buy a set of colour coded dash strips but unfortunatly...
Yeah i cracked on haha, only really ended up giving it a quick wash and cleaned up the engine bay. Got a long list planned for the weekend tho :grin:. When can you drive it? must be torture it sitting there and you not being able to go out for a spin 😂
Haha i can defo waste multiple hours on my car so i went ahead and bought some. An unexpected £50 expense that i wasnt planning on when i woke up but oh well, hopefully i can get some of the swirl marks out of my paint and restore the shine :grin: yeah i know what you mean dude, thats why i...
thanks mate. A list as long a my arm 😂, but in the short term -
paint and fit my newly aquired washer blanks
grills are going black
rear calipers silver
Put my new tyres on
machine polish
197 badge
turinis!! :grin::grin:
looking good man, black always looks amazing when really cleaned and polished up. I need to get cracking on ordering up a few new bits, going to invest in some polish and pads as my paint feels like sandpaper 😂. Plus i havent washed it in the best part of a month :neutral:
Liking the...
