1.6 16V Project!

[bmh.01]

Yeah that them on the 1.6 and they looked like that after 6 months or so, and the ride was boneshaking kinked the roof around the sunroof on one side! Did look s**t hot dropwise though i'll give them that.

Cheers on the meggy, loving it so far. Haven't missed the 172 yet so can't be that bad .

Thats the plan buddy!

Your car looks really nice....however a few things which might just finish it off

1) CTR arial - 10 quid but looks much better
2) Philips blue vision bulbs: looks much nicer than the normal ones as they give a whiter/bluey colour

Other than that looks really good.

Love the car matey. The white bullets make a big difference. And just looking at the non colour coded bump strips on my black clio, I didn't think colour coding was necessary, but when I see the difference yours made Im getting that done for sure!
