Thanks for all the comments and everything guys! Im really loving the colour aswell although the car really needs a post winter clean as its filthy! I would possibly be looking for some turinis in the future if anyones looking for a swap? haha
Also ive got some sparco reclining sports seats to...
Didnt even realise they came with sound deadning? lol Is it worth picking some up? Expensive?
Yea think im going to go down the skoda route. Being a 19Yo student "cheap and durable" sounds very appealing to me!
This could be interesting to see if anyone has any experience of them. If anyone out East Lothian/Glasgow/Edinburgh type way is looking for a new exhaust i would highly recommend Simons Custom Exhausts. He did the exhaust on my last car and was a top guy! Just putting that out there! haha
Ive only ever seen 3 others in edinburgh appart from mine. One near the braids on a private plate, one that parks outside napier uni and one down towards murryfield area! your likely to see me kicking about the south side (sounds so gangster)
Spec is eibach springs
scorpion rs192 exhaust...
Had the car for about 5 months-ish now and have racked up 6k miles in it! This is the first chance that ive had to upload some pics of it but im totally loving it! Anyways il let the pics do the talking! :D
Pretty sure i read somewhere that 4300k was standard. If mine ever need replacing I think i would go between 5 - 6000k any higher and they look too blue/chavvy.
Thanks James you arse, thanks for making me feel better about it!
Is there a paint code or anything for the cup wheels? I can mix paint up at work and im tempted to just touch them up the best I can as a temporary solution!
Whats that man? Where can i get it?
Was doing a 3 point turn and the kerb was a lot closer than i though! First set of wheels ive ever kerbed! Its the most annoying thing! In hindsight i shouldn't of taken the gamble. However lesson learnt! Just want to try and make it better-ish now! :(
Couple of pictures! Is it possible to get a paint code for the alloys and then get paint mixed up and touch them up? Make them look a little bit less sh*t for a while!
Thanks
Il go take one the now! Dont know if its possible but even if i could just get some anthracite paint made up to cover up the white scratches before i could get them properly refurbed!
Kerbed one of my alloys a beaut tonight, nearly every spoke which is super annoying! I cant afford to get a full refurb just now although it is on the cards for the future, so i was just wondering:1. Is there anything I can do to make it look less sh*t Or do I have to:2. Put up with it until I...
Ive got the same problem mate! I fitted the washers and it didn't work for me. Is it just a kink if creaking/clicking noise on full lock going either way? I put my standard springs back on and its still doing it! Not sure what else it could be though!
Had 60mm springs on my old car for a while before getting coilovers and they were fine, never had any issues with them! suppose it depends what condition your dampers are in to begin with though!
I would loose the splitter and replace it with a skoda one and paint the grill black... something i always ment to do and never got around to! Get a video of the exhaust... I miss the noise!
I really like mine, i don't think its too bad on the motorway to be honest and it does make a sweet sound when giving it some beans on a weekend blast ;)
Build quality i would question, i have a great big crack along the bottom of the centre silencer. E-mails scorpion and they were really...
He didnt mean to lock the car! He pressed the lock button with the door still open instead of the rear window demister button by accident! Still quite a large amount of fail though good effort!
