if your not going to put a different exhaust on then get the 172. as thats the one without the exhaust cust outs. if u put a 182 bumper on it and dont get the exhaust it will look silly
hi guys.... will be trying to fit my sport skirts soon
are the clips essential to fit or are there any other ways to fit them?
anyone got any advice or tips thanks
youll need sports bumper, sport wings. sport sideskirts.... sport arch liners. 25mm spacers to space the wheels out. my wheels are hiding in my arches just now... :D
ph2 sport bumper for sure... 172 and 182 are pretty much the same.... where bouts in glasgow u from dude thats where im from, im from the east end :D if u need any help gimme a shout
Got my wings and bumper all fitted. my lively 182 alloys have disappeared in my arches tho... Any one else who has done replica know what size of spacers I'll need at the front to fill them out and also what size should I get for the rear wheels to space them out thanks guys as always
if you don't use sport wings then you need to do some filler work on it for which there is a guide in the section , but I bought the sport wings aswell. when your using the sport wings there no alteration required... Just all bolts on. looks alot better IMO
I couldn't be arsed with coilovers... I lowered mine 40mm and it's low enough for me... give the cliospares guys a message and see how much a grill from them will cost failing that eBay for 50 quid brand new is a good shout. with regards to the removal of grill bit of brute force will get it...
Honestly mate save your money it's so easy to do.... I done mine myself... cost you about 30 quid for materials from halfords... plus it would free up your cash for other mods... rs grill makes a big difference IMO but after that it's a slippery slope to a 172/182 replica as I have found out...
First mod I'd say yours is screaming out for is a rs grill
then I'd colour code your sidestips and do your bullets silver to match your wheels ;) looks good tho . Good to see another 5 door modder ;)
keep it mate.... f**king crackin motor.... imitation is the best form of flattery ;-) plus even with the other five doors like myself that look like yours.... yours is still gonna be the fastest ;-)
had planned to but realised I'll need bigger spacer than I had originally
Planned for... cause it's a non sport with sport wings the wheels sit in the arches a but... Need to get some 25 mm spacers I Think .
hey guys... been a while since last done anything but have finally got my sport bumper and wings sprayed and fitted... see pics... all missing now is a skoda fabia splitter i think... the sport sideskirts... and 172 rear bumper... then the jobs a good un ;-)
