Had a crack, Need to get my photoshop skills back up to scratch so practicing.
Wheels on only:
Wheels and mirrors:
Wheels, Mirrors, diamond, badges and side repeaters (no cage):
Yeah i think they do mean its simular to the pic above you could buy that and get someone to make the left and right tip sit in the middle.
Shop looks ok, Are you going to fill the numberplate recess? Because if you are i reckon it would look a lot nicer colour coded, Same with the side strips...
You going to do any mods to pull it off? On a standard-ish car i think it would look like its trying to be a mini or lupo.
That car pulls it off nicely though.
There not amazing by any means, There currently off my car. Instillation is easy, Theres 2 vinyl bits and they slip over the needles and sit on the stock dials, Then you plug them into the main controll box.
You need to solder some wires but its pretty easy.
I dont find them too dazzling but...
I like the wheels but needs slammage to pull them off imo, Also will be a b*****d to keep clean. Might look a bit better once there a bit dirty.
Dont like the wing mirrors or the clio up sticker.
Car looks good though, Seats are nice.
Ive got Osram night breakers in at the moment, One of my ebay special white bulbs blew so these went back in (usually only run them in winter).
Definatly a great bulb, Visibility is fantastic, But they are very orange to me, Think it says on the box there 10% whiter than stock bulbs but only...
Love photomerge,
Did this using my s**t point and shoot, just took about 15 overlapping pictures and put them into photomerge in photoshop, No tripod thats why its s**t but still impressed me.
Wheels look much better black, Dont like the bonnet lifters, Do you really need that much cooling on a 1.4?
A normal bonnet gap and a RS grill arent going to make it overheat.
Also, Do you have a tampon hanging from your rear tow hook?
SRP is a filler, With only very mild correction going on iirc.
Get some polish with a better cut.
I used sandpaper 2000 > 3000 >> polish: Poorboys 3.0 > 2.5 > Then finished off with Megs swirl remover.
Look 10x better, But some grit must of got under the sandpaper in some parts and need to...
Some sort of degreaser, I.e. AG engine cleaner.
All perpose cleaner like Tescos daisy.
Spray bottle, Old microfibres, Some brushes etc.
If your going to jetwash it ive heard you should cover up the electrics with plastic bags, And leave the engine running whilst your doing it.
Might as well remove the spare wheel ? Get some tyre foam instead.
Id got for the hardboard in the back cover it in carpet or leather. To tidy it up.
Seeing as the subs gone, Any plans for uprating the speakers? Replace some of the lost bass.
For me the RB is a racing go fast car, I love to see it on turnis, OEM wheels etc as i think they suit the theme.
For me the wide wheels and stretched rubber doesnt work. The wheels themselves are nice and the car on its own is nice.
Also like the euroed car, Think that can pull it off...
