The carbon is now fitted..
and after a shine up..
Front pic..
More bits on the way... its...
I just got a DVD recorder.. and I am finding if I record a film (2hrs long for eg.) and I turn it off after half way through to finish watching the next day... when I want to start it again it goes back to the beginning!? I have to write down the time before I stop it and 'go-to' that time...
Had both the standard 1.7 (in blue) and the Racing Puma.. the 1.7 was the 1st new car I ever bought... and the only car I wasnt remotely exited about picking up from the dalership? I remember going to get it and saying 'I dont even want this car' lol.. ? no idea what I was thinking... but it was...
Yes I have all the orginal Reno mats with Reno stamped on them.. I can imagine there arent that many around.. but soz.. holding onto them as i still like them.
Cheers VL. almost every day that its been sunny.. only rain stops play :) (last time was about 20 minutes ago lol) posted the spec earlier... but it changes by the month as its an on-going thing with tempory bits on..no point setting it up till its all on and dusted.. will take a while yet...
Yes mate, I have been thinking about that... but its one thing at a time... and kinda slow going. But after all the trim (more carbon hopefully if it goes to plan and other stuff I havent decided on) I fancy going fully digital with the dash... but this wont be till the other stuff gets...
I didnt keep the design.. :S it was a bit of a discussion over the phone with the changes after my 1st balls up.. I just said add a bit here and cut a bit off there! lol.
The switch is for the charge cooler pump... I will be running a twin cooler set up in a few days... and that switch will be...
Dont overly listen to the sounds with kickin bass... so opted for just a better player than the other one.. the quality of the sound even with just a new player sounds 10x better than the other one with the flippy spinny font on it.....and I get to see 'HIM' on dvd..
Matt, had them made... not cheap tho specially when u fook em up the 1st time.. :S just looked up some metal fabricator place and sent them the design.. u should be able to find them around most places locally.
Hey mate.. no worries... I am only mid-flow! lol.. it may be a while but wont show it off till its finished.. the door trims arent even on and only got tempory pipes fitted in the bay etc new brake disks are here but getting new carriers chromed... new handbrake.. pedals... steering wheel...
Thanks for the replies.
I forgot to mention I have a carpet in now as well.. also other stuff... but dont want to over do the pics.. already posted more than I meant to lol.
I'll post an update as things get sorted in a bit.
Had to get the seat mounts re-fabbed.. as my 1st attempt with the...
Hi dalla.. I hear u... but I like to be different.... Turbines have been done and dusted so many times already. These look much better than the pics can show really tbh.. the polished lip looks good against the black and you then see the polished brakes behind them too, with better brakes...
Thanks kind sirs! good to get feedback on what u all think :)
Andy... u got that spot on.. I didnt realise how pants they looked till I took them off last month.. I think it looks a lot better now..
the idea was the protect the paint fron chips...but it looked lame..lol.
I fitted...
I was impressed before I saw the dash!! :eek: staggering work! well done...must have been a hell'ova job! :approve: looks great.
I would consider a black suede steering wheel..something like an Omp Corsica.
Respect for all the work... all the items are top quality... like the wide arches and the image wheels fill them perfectly. Keep us posted with the progress :)
