Not really sure where to post this. But we were very bored with a quiet day at work so decided to make use of a few spares and odd bits lying around. Hope you enjoy haha we certainly did.
Started with a few bits of cardboard...
A few spare drivers...
Some quick measurements and ...
Hi, i'm thinking of getting the sports side skirts as the bottom of the car looks horrid. If I get them would I need to have the wings too? and if I get the wings would I need the 172 front bumper or will they be fine without the wings?
Thanks, Jack
Just wanted a picture editing please, a colour change on wheels and maybe the whole car too.
Want to keep the end product a bit of a surprise so if you fancy doing it PM me and i'll explain exactly what I want doing :)
This is the photo.
Cheers, Jack
Had the car just over a year now and was thinking back over all the stuff i've done. And as the weather was good I decided it was time to give her a wash.
When I got her
And now she's all clean
First time i've seen a reflection on her in a long time haha
C...
One of my mates took a few snaps for me yesterday after we gave the car a good clean.
We took a few in an abandoned multi storey in newcastle...
then some near Keele uni.
Hi, I just bought some new 172 headlights and decided to fit them today a long with the fogs.
I'm having a few problems with removing the headlight. I've seen on here that some people say remove the whole front bumper where the haynes manual says just to remove the front grill. I Decided to...
Hi, is there anyone that could photoshop some different colour options onto my wheels?
Colours preferred at the moment are White, Anthracite or Black but any help would be much appreciated. Here's a pick.
Thanks...
Saw a stunning mk3 lowered with what looked like the cup spoiler maybe... Not so hot on mk3's had the reg k6eey. Wondered if it was on here n if so any pics?
Had a great day a the phil price rally school!
Staff were great and the driving was excellent. MINT cars
The two mk2 escorts and Scooby you drive
The cars the pro takes you out in
And the lap times for the race, i came 3rd :D and two of the drivers...
Was bored the other day so took these, shame it's not a premium car would have looked much better.
enjoy, may get some of the v6 up as it's a premium car :)
It begins,
Bonnet stripped
Rebuilding 5th gear
Painting badges
Lowering, but had a few problems with the wheels fitting
Fitting and sitting nicely now,
Few pics of her up and running
Painted the rest of the badges and roof rack on
My dad sold this Fiat Coupe about 6 years ago, and just seen it like this in the scrapyard near me. The roof and rear were fully folded with massive scratches in the roof so I think it had flipped and slid on the roof for a while.
Hi, I have just purchased some Dual optics 172 front lights for my ph1 1.2 The person who sold them to me has left the indicator and the side light in and with the connectors. Where can I get one for the centre bulb? I have the bulb to go in, but the connection is different to the current lights...
Just decided the car was getting a bit filthy so had a quick clean. The polo is my mate ben's he's the tool in the photos. Also from these pics the colour difference between my bonnet and side panels is massively noticeable. It's not that bad in real life honest!
Just been watching an old top gear episode. S15 E1 they are showing off a mazda 323 and it's in one of the shots. wondered if it was on here. it's 28 mins in haha.
Me and tommy have got really annoying rattles from the sunroof, unsure wether its the mechanism or the glass itself. Anyone had this problem before? and more importantly how do i get it to stop. Mines a Mk2 Ph1 and his is a Mk2 Ph2.
Cheers
Saw a blue 172 or 182 outside our shop in hanley going towards birches head. Got two members on the car park. Like a mini meet everyday haha. Looked nice and clean.
Just seen a MK3 Clio near Tesco. Had large spoiler, sweet alloys ... lots of other bits n bobs. But looked very expensive. Had the Cliosport sticker on the back so I assume he's on here. I feel lame as haven't lowered mine yet (springs came today) and my wheels were filthy, (they are supposed to...
I bought this off my mate as he was leaving and recently decided it had some potential. It's only the basic 1.2 8v so don't want to do loads to it just subtle things nothing performance wise. May get a quicker model in the future.
I'm thinking of taking the rubbish plastic trims off spraying...
