Gonna do mine in red, did the drums in silver last weekend, just used hammerite, but need the proper stuff for the calipers. If they look kak then i can always repaint them another colour
Look a bit too cheap m8, i have learnt that always buy the best, and hence most expensivet aht you can stretch to, i got 15" oz titans, cost me £580 for the set of 4 wiht tyres, but as a result i have a set of 4 very good tyres (Uniroyal Rainsports), and a set of very good wheels.
At the end...
..or you can get the complete thing for £150 for paul at Infinicra, kinda pointless seeing as how the new one is the same price. I got one for £100, c/w vent
if you still want ot have a go at it yourself you shoudl be able to get the paint from Halfords, they have a chart, you look up make and model number and name of paint and year of car, you can usually guess the colour from the year etc, but it shoudl say on the ID plate inside the bonnet
well im planning to ditch my 1.2 and get a 172 when im 21. There was a post aobut this a while back, think the average was about £1500, if i remember correctly.
Right mk1 1.2 has 60BHP as stanard, and official stats are 14.9 secs 0-60, i have had mized results, got 12 secs, and 14 secs respectivly, so i would put my money on 14 secs but you cant be THAT accurate wiht a stop watch
Nice, might have to give them a ring come renewal time, only prob is its easy to fob my inurence comapny off, no decat wont give me any power gain, it just sounds good - lol
