Rctempire - that one looks passable, only because it's a converible though, usually thay are a hard top so easier to spot (just look at the rear window are on them) One of the main ways to tell am mr2 to F355 conversion is the wheels & interior - they never have the real items. He looks to have...

Imo it looks out of place, if other bits were painted up too, it would look a lot better.

They've done really well but the end car still looks awful imo.

It's nice & clean. Not my cuppa though.

Re: HORRENDUS BODYSHOP.....EEK! He knew that the place had a bad rep as well as a good one though, but he still went there, why on earth would anyone do that ?:S It is not a one off error as they have done shoddy workmanship before, tbh the bodyshop have f'cked it big time. If it was me...

Pmsl - not in a million years !! It's not even in a rare colour either !

Ah man, that sucks. Will he get another one ??

If you running the correct tyre pressures and your tracking is fine it shouldn't be doing it.

Ouch !!! How did it happen ?

I'm going with 170 -175 bhp.

^ that car should have ph2 rear lights & a boot on it. I assume that as they have tried to make it a rep, they've gone for ph1 stuff and it may have been crashed into, so they made it into a vee rep.

Re: HORRENDUS BODYSHOP.....EEK! Yeah what I meant was it's not like any of us are going to use them are we ? If it was in the UK then fair play, tbh it's just some dumb american who didn't do his research properly.

Re: HORRENDUS BODYSHOP.....EEK! This bodyshop isn't in the UK btw ! His opennig line - after hearing the good and bad stories about them, I decided to go there. There you are, bad stories too, i'd have fooked the dude off all together & gone somewhere with a 100% good reputation.

In the last one it sold for 3.5k - yet in the current one it says he'll take 3.5k, what happended last time ?? Thye not pay up ?

^ you never know though.

I prefer the badges how they are, I think that black makes them look cheap.

Noodle999, you don't say in you post how many times you have spoken to them. Did you make a note of each time you did & what each person said ? If you have, i'd consider writing a letter of complaint to them, they may offer you something by way of companstion too..

I loved that valver, I remember seeing it at FCS back in about 2004/5 I've had a quick flick through this current thread, but as i'm tired i've not been able to read it all etc. The five looks to be coming along slowly but surely, great stuff. Such a massive task you've taken on, nice on...

Three wheeling ftw ! :)

I'd go for black or anthracite, ok they are boring colours, but the cars standard. Imo bright coloured wheels will look naff unless you do some mods to it.

^ When they are arranged, they are posted up in the local meetings section. You need to look in there.

Fair play to you, it's looking so much better now that that awful kits has been taken off of it:) Your a braver man than I am to take on and recfity the problems the car had. Tbh i'd not have touched it (that's me though) You have made the right choice opting to keep black wheels on it, it...

^ spot on, they are a broker yeah (some don't realise that) it's the actual insurer they go with who might not be ok, not greenlight at fault. Highway imo are crap, i'd never go with them again (pleanty on here about them, in fact I replied in a thread the other day about them)

^ so £1200 with directline, but they don't touch mods. Now it's £1700 with the other company & you have a load of mods. Like I said it's expensive because it's heavily modified. ... and a named driver on your sisters policy. You don't really qualify to give advice tbh.

It looks to be done to great standard, some of it's not my thing though.

^ you could at least put up some more pics of yours ;)

William, what can I say ??? Awesome !!! You've done great there, I always like seeing pics of your car as it's done so well :star:

It's sad imo, no one really thinks that a v6 clio rep is cool at all (only the bandit driving it does)

Brapp Brapp !! It's on PH - 60k spent on it ! http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/344399.htm

Deary me, that's bad. It has a filler cap from a fiat coupe, he fails to mentoin that bit. He didn't forget about "SUKI VITRA" arches though, pmsl !!!
