Just bought a 172 FF in iceberg but im not happy with the standard spoiler so im looking at getting either one from a Trophy/V6 or just a cup spoiler. The trophy spoiler will cost more as i will need the boot lifters also.

Im just wounder is there any side effects from chroming/polishing the plenum/fuel rail guard and engine mounting of a 172? heat?

Initial plan was to buy an engine (2.0ltr) to fit to my 1.2 replica so i bought this for £550. The engine had only covered 16k miles so is in very nice condition.
Sold the 172 interior+wheel+door sills for £350 and still got the rolling shell including lots of other stuff for sale (Pm if...

Looking at trying to get this engine started this weekend the problem is it doesnt actually have any fuel pipes atm. Has anyone got a piping diagram or can give me a quick run through of what goes to where etc?
Another thing, is the fuel pump next to the actual fuel tank?
thanks for the help...
Obviously im looking at doing an engine conversion to my 1.2 to a 2.0ltr but only being 17 (18 in march) insurance is going to kill me.
Im just looking for some information on insurance
1 . Would my converted car be classed as the same insurance group as a standard 172 or would it be more...
8 hour round trip today to pick up my new purchase :)
Also has Full leather and alcantara interior, new ph2 dash including ph2 steering wheel and much more.

I currently have a 1.2 sport replica, im looking at getting some coilovers for it. If i were to do a engine conversion (2.0ltr) would these coilovers then be useless as ive heard you need to change the front axle?
