Re: My mk1 track car blog
I know the feeling mate owning a mk1 meself, i am always very cautious bout messing with things like electrics cause its sods law that something else will mess up at the same time. I always have this problem!
Hope u get it sorted soon!
Re: someph-ing different...........
Looks smart that mate, think the centre diamond could be a bit brighter though to match the calipers, or it could just be the camera light! i had a knee op on wed an aint bin able to drive since an trust me its soooooo annoying!
sorted, well iv got three weeks off due to not being able to drive or work so got plenty of time to have a crack, gona have a look at gettin the seats out in the morning and go the local buliders yard for piece of wood. Will let yano how i get on, just ordered some lowering springs so cant...
Does look awful!!! needs lowering without a doubt!!
Hows he gona feel if he does come on here and sees this thread lol, hel probs cry cause of everyone slaggin his motor off!

Well iv just ordered a set of springs from K Tec (anyone know how long they usually take to arrive) an im hoping to find somewhere or someone local who will do the job for me.
Any ideas on how much i should be paying to get the job done?? dont wanna be robbed but then dont want a bodge job...
^^ gutted, alrite well cheers anyway pal, ill get all the seats out an have a go at getting some measurments. U had any benefits from doing this?? eg saving petrol?? cause thats what im aiming for, being a skint student an that lol
i was thinkin that actually, mite just pay out for a new set and just have a go at doing them ones on my own an if i mess em up then it dnt matter, if i do a decent job then i can flog em. S
Still not sure of colour though, thinkin maybe white for a new set i mean.
I prefered it with all the trim in tbh mate, looks too bare like that an im sure it would be an absolute b**ch to carpet all that. But if it can be done would look smart i think!
^^ r u the fella i was talkin to at the KK meet about u not being able to get insurance at 30 cause u were on the wifes policy?? And u were helpin Nick fix his spoiler on?? i was the one wit the tesco screwdrivers!!
Will be easier to do the perperation urself and just get the bodyshop to do the spraying, will work out cheaper but if ur a beginner at this kinda thing itl be best gettin it done properly.
If the bodyshop u go to is decent then chances r they will want to do the whole rear quarter to blend it...
