I've read enough to know how the process goes mate and what i've done so far seems ok, sanded down the area that was fooked, applied primer, wet flatted, repeated until blemishes were gone, applied nice layer of primer, flatted, left to harden, painted etc, Now obviously there are distintive...

A mate has a banged up fiesta thats a real state and we've decided to learn how to paint on it and not worry about the mistakes. Over the last few days we started on the front bumper, which had a load of paint chipped off one area, sanded it back, primered it, sanded it back and got it done...

Floozie ;)

Wow these are good, i never normally comment on any of the photography on here, just look, but these have really caught my eye! Would love a high res to have as my bkground!

I had some late night brain activity so i went and found an ok pic of BiohZrds car and took the wheels, its not the best shop i'm afraid, but gives you an idea.

Tried it for you, but one problem and one suggestion... Picture of the wheels you want is quite tiny, trying to make it bigger totally kills the resolution and it makes it near impossible to then make black being such bad quality, so a bigger pic of a car on those wheels is necessary. Also i'd...

I actually think 182 wheels look better without centre caps in this case, suits the car! :rasp:

Looks really good mate, how hard are you finding the colour coding? As summer approaches and more and more people are going for it and getting good results i'm getting ever more tempted.

Why do i never get offers like this? Think i need boobs tbqf! Request name change to Robbos (.)(.) On topic, spoiler looks good!

Windscreen chipped Remote locking gave up Door locks dont work (now have to use third party alarm to get in) Passenger Door Scratched to hell Front wheels rubs on full left lock (172 wheels (confused)) Speedo doesnt work

Do you not know anyone that has a mkph1 with electric windows already fitted? Best i can offer is meet you somewhere and let you look at how mine work and try to replicate it into yours? (I'm in sidcup so not to far either)

How did you fix the speedo sophance?

Always enjoyed your builds man, and this one is no exception, despite being pretty much anti 206, i'm sure this'll look quality. Any reason you chose the 206 over all the other hatches out there? Only things i'm unsure about are the exhaust, i think it should be straighter? i.e run more inline...

Did the one i could mate and smoothed the rear bumper.

Few tips for when you want a photoshop done mate... Put up a pic of your car a photoshopper can work with, from the side if you want lowering and wheels, slightly diagonal is ok. Put up a pic of what you want put on the car, so if you want some wheels on the car, put up a pic of the wheels...

Jesus f**k!!! Looks like some seriously agressive driving man! Decent brake setup i assume by how late your braking? Quick to say the least. Whats done to it?

Just read all 13 pages and it was well worth it!!!! Great project, like how you've just picked up bits off ebay and tried to make it all work! Amazingly impressed considering your not a mechanic! Good work! Can't wait til i have an income that means i can try things like this!

Sorry not amazing.

Much mate, i don't know the answer to your problem, just thought you'd have more chance of getting the answer you need if people could read it.

Whilst you can i'd edit this so the font is actually read-able, so you may get answers, just a heads up :)

Looking really good mate, on 182 wheels should look wicked, they were what i wanted really, but settled for 172 wheels in the end! Just a few questions for you if you dont mind mate... Was just wondering if when you painted the front bumper, did you paint it all or just the black plastic bit...

Getting your deposit back should be possible as its miss-advertised. As boosh says, trade descriptions act.... Go down there explain you wanted 182 and after research this is not infact what the car is, so you'd like your deposit back.

Brooklands was this weekend, my friend went up with his old man and his two, yes two! lambo's, a Murcielago and a Coutache (you might be remember my thread after i went out in them a while back). It was free entry for all italien cars too!!! His pics are here...

Loving the tango'ness of it all. Did you go to the Brooklands Auto Italia day Justin?

Looks fine to me, when fitted you cant see any of that.

Pacss?

Book recommends 15w 40 irrc?

My wheels look so small compared to this!?!? What is it lowered on!?!

I have something similar, but in the spare wheel well, nothing else seems wet so its difficult to find out whats going on? Clio may be french for "mini swimming pool"?

Love your car man! Shame to see it like that, good on the BMW, i know what you mean about resotring faith in people, someone hit mine and left a note once, was a massive mix of anger and happyness. One thing, did he explain how he managed to hit your car in what looks like a basically empty...
