The skirts are K-tec ones, theres an extra bit above the skirts thast bought the skirts out, and flushed them, thats teh custom bit
I dont pay attention to ANYTHING carzone make (they are almost as bad as Delta ;)), So dont know if they do wide arches or not, I thought if you where going to have custom arches though you would have had something a little more obtrusice and custom. Not going to get into an argument with CD...
Now I'm possibly going to get plenty of flamage for this, AS I admit its a bit of a far fetched idea:
Basically, I have a 1999 1.2RN Clio having some major bodywork, and soem pretty big wheels, and I need new brakes.
Now I have drums at the back so I need a rear beam conversion from a...
Stick a 18 year old with 11 months driving experience under his belt, in a FWD car with 182bhp, He is MORE than likely either going to get points or crash, true or not? I'm sensible enough to realise this fact.
Thats the thing with modifying, not everyone is going to like it, its like...

8 subs is easy. No rear seats, and a wall :)
I started with a mark 2 phase 1 because theres not as many about as...
nope i thought that, they showed me on the other side, its actually plates welded in, and fibreglass. Theres very little filler on the side, only a few skims of filler, They made a mould and made a complete fibreglass skirt that starts halfway down the car. I was scared when i thought it was...

The back bumper has been Removed to re locate my exhaust, the side skirts are on and the whole bottom side off the car (from the bump strips down) Has been widenened and flushed out an extra Inch, The skirts have been fully smoothed in, just a...
Roy, I respect your reply, and totally understand where you are coming from. I am by no means suggesting what im doing is sensible, or do i reccomend anyone do it, Cause, I will be the first to admit, Its a waste of money, which will more than likely DE VALUE my car.
Dont choke on the sugar...
Thanks for the constructive criticism, i understand that not everyone is in to the bodywork side of things and fair play to you, as i will b the first to admit that its isawaste of money. However, I'm 18 with under a years driving experience, im am lucky enough to say icould quite easily afford...
yes i saw that, didnt know it started gold lol.
mine will still be gold, but next year its going in for wide arches, Lambos and a a Tempreture change flip paint.

Hey, I have recently had m,y car de handled, and I have had solenoids fitted to pop the door. However, these rely on the door seals to pop the door, and it doesnt pop too good at all.
I was wondering if there is anything you can get to actually PUSH the door open aswell as moving the lock...
personally id go witha 4 gauge kit. You cna go for 0 gauage if you wish, but im sure 4 will be suffice and much kess hassle to install.
You can do alot worse than auto leads for wiring but check out www.caraudiodirect.co.uk for decent wiring kits.
Hope this helps
