I thought the bumper was all nice and ready to be sprayed the other day, I had some primer lying around so I give it a once over to show up imperfections... There were a few :/ I went over the whole thing with p800 p1200 and p1500 to get it all nice and smooth, filled in any bits that...

Will you pm me the link to where you got your fog bulbs? I need blue fogs ha

Lol I was just about to comment :p

Long bent one. I'm through jesmond a fair bit so I'll keep an eye out for you :) car looks nice mate Oh, is that exhaust standard? Looks small ... Or do everyone on here put beasty pipes on?

250bhp iirc... I heard somewhere that they have 500 torques too <--- not sure how to write torque down lol ***lb/ft? Ha

Quickly skimmed through the pics (it's 2am and I'm bored in the library with the mrs) and I have to say awesome car, you either saved it from being gash or you came to your senses and made it awesome, either way great car mate :) look forward to seeing it 172 bumpered :)

That would be my girlfriends cardi :p And danzel it's not really much hassle, apart from the body shop being picky. Tbf it gives me more time to work on it and get more used to body work, always a good skill to have I suppose. It's been a fun couple of weeks and I haven't once thought to pack...

Hmm I'll see, ill check if I can get it off work then I might follow some ne members down, it's a 2 day camping/ hotel event right?

Do the 1.4 16v on the bullets in anthracite or silver to distinguish them from the carbon :) nice work on the engine cover :) car looks great mate

That White one is the one that started out Monaco right?

Isn't the rear exactly the same? It's only different on the mk3's isn't it

I'm not going sadly. Too far mate :(

There's no point, I only cut off about a centimetre anyway so it'd be easier to just reshape the fibreglass myself. I don't trust myself to spray it, plus I don't have a spray gun. And halfrauds don't stock a colour close to mine, I was talking to a doorman I work with who owns a garage the...

Lol, atleast they'll know when youre outside ;) *screeeeeeeeettttccchhhh bwwwaaaaaaarrrp burble burble burble* :p Cant wait :)

Right, the updates are going to be small for a while, I've decided to get the bumper all ready for painting, primed and smooth so all the painter will need to do is apply colour; Remember I cut the bolt hole too much? I hope this has fixed it The plan is to sand this and cut it so it's a...

Aah fair enough dude... Btw. Your car looked nice in PFC :)

Yes! Exactly what I thought lmao!

photo *****! horney said this is quite rapid like, youll have to let me know next time you're out ;) car looks awesome like, oh... new exhaust? i thought this had a twin exit?

i just turned 12 when this was made :O i was reading through thinking ' imagine if this was posted now. the op would get slated off the forum!' and yes, racing is bad! especially when your mate overtakes in oncoming traffic! i must say good on you for slowing down to hold up the police...

I doubt anyone would remove a sport grill, and remove xenons. Someone would probably put that exhaust on a 172 because it adds 10 more bhp instantly doesn't it I'll just go enquire about buying it, I may even kindly ask for discount because I'll have to fix it ;)

Didn't you sell your car as standard? :/ did the buyer not notice the flared arches lol?

Lol so it's a chavved up, cheaply repaired 182 front ender? I couldn't see the rear disks/drums so I couldn't comment further

Aah, ok :) I'm not nit picking but don't privileges have xenons? Or is that that daft initialle weird trim?

I was thinking 'where's the crack? :/ where's the crack? :' is that the crack? No... Hmmm. Holy f**k that's a big crack, and he's still flooring it? Dear me... Nice dials though'

The lip is much better than the gap mate, it would've looked so out of place. I'll see if I can find a pic to show you... Found one before cutting the bumper to fit the arches After cutting and tucking Best I have but you can see the gap would make it look a bit shoddy if I left it

Thought so, oh well, I think it's insured anyway :dapprove:

Just installed this app, it does have to be on your phone already doesnt it? My mate lost hers a few weeks ago but I'm guessing there's nothing we can do now?

The dents about a foot square

Upsetting update; remember the stencil what I cut out to modify the bolt hole in the wing? I shouldn't have done that, it's now too short to bolt in, oh well, body shops gonna ring me to book it in next week (one of two) so that gives me time to get the bolt holes right and fill in the excess

I can't get a colour match, it's faded too much so it's pink, I'm waiting for a callback from a couple of places
