A few new mods ;)

[ChrisPearson]

Sorry about the pics took on mikes 5mp phone which i thought would be ok.Think we had it set up wrong.

thanks

 

[clio_luke]

that car is mint

 

[Hazza]

What mods did u do?

The wheels and the phat sticker on the bumper?

 

[fUbAr]

all it needs is a private plate to finish the car off and fool the less eagle eyed into thinking its a 172.

I remember seeing this at FCS, and as i walked round i was greeted to a different shade of white on every panel... some of them looked yellowish!?

 

[ChrisPearson]

16" f1s,interior door handles.Ok then maybe just one mod lol but imo its a big mod and im really happy

mods to come-

Get the colour done better
take off that sticker
rear disks
cup spoiler
new style badges
coilovers

then the project will be complete

Bad light or just bad painting?

bad painting, several people commented on it.

looks great with the standard spoiler, no need for a cup one IMO.

 

[ChrisPearson]

maybe vee

 

[ChrisPearson]

good painting wrong colour

 

[Christopher]

good luck with the rear discs!!

100000000x better on those wheels though son, good going

remove the stickers and get the paint matched better and leave it at that imo fella!

save for a 172/182 then

 

[Hazza]

^^ Agreed.

Yup, would look perfect after those sticker removal and color matched better

 

[Christopher]

looking at the pics again fella, it really is awesome! :approve:

 

[ChrisPearson]

cheers! I dont have abs so disks should be easy.Just that colour match that annoys me but my uncle did it for free so i cant really complain

 

[Christopher]

ahh yeah! good point, all the problems i know of were with the abs rings/sensors

also, if you get the colour sorted, i wouldn't bother with a 172, just drop a f4r in yours!

 

[ChrisPearson]

Yup and theres one in my garage doing nothing Will it be longer so therfore i wont need as much spacers.need to know so i can order some new spacers.

 

[gazbenger]

the wheels look mint

 

[Mikey197]

Get that rear sticker off and get some french style plates and that car will look better than sex.

 

[GinandGasoline]

much better on them wheels! love the 16" OZ's

The painting is as good as any Ive ever seen. Its just in renault white not glacier white

 

[Budgie]

Looks awesome.

 

[dutty_112]

nice mate! get them coilies!

 

[Giles]

well done that looks good!

 

[Ben.]

looks great on those alloys, as said, i think a private plate would finish it off

 

[Ali]

Doesn't do much for me to be brutally honest. The RS2 looks better in white.

Agree with Dan over the painting...Improvement with the wheels tho.

 

[gazbenger]

in fairness, yes there is a paint match issue,which chris should sort out...but if fubar hadnt brought it up no one would know from the pics

 

[ChrisPearson]

Have to see how the Pcing goes this week see if that makes a difference

 

[Marky_]

Nice. Love f1s!

 

[Giles]

those wheels is a lot better!

where did you get them from?

 

[Ruffneck]

Looks fantastic!

(You don't drive round with your towing eye poking out do you LOL)

 

[Dafthead]

Loving the white

Incidentally, saw a new M3 in white yesterday and did a sex wee

 

[Alan]

Bob on matey...love it..

got to agree, sorry, looks like loads of effort has gone into this though.

not really sure how much i like the 16" version of these now, i would agree that it is a little bit of an improvement over the 15" ones but i have to laugh at people spending that much more to get a rarer set of wheels then forking out that much more for tyres for them too....for 1" of visual difference its boarderline pointless.....or i'm just not a proper enthusiast

and i know he will read it so that includes you justin lol

^ he had ph2 wheels on it not ph1 15"s.

Looks great chris a real improvement on before!

As for the colour match, At various shows ive seen well know cars on here with dreadful colour match, but ive never chose or felt the need to comment. Seems a little childish... and as if the owner would not be aware!

 

[Nafoff]

^ he had ph2 wheels on it not ph1 15"s.

i know this, i was just commenting generally on the 16" v 15" OZ F1

these are a far better improvement on the phase 2 wheels on this motor

 

[Hazza]

I preferred the ph2 wheels for some reason .... maybe coz they're slight;y bigger, and sat in the arches better. imo

kk. thought it was a specific comment.

I have to say ive resisted so far the temptation to put 16s on my ph-quick. Its when I take pics of it, they looks so tiny it gives me the urge to change.

get out

they looked awful! ruined an otherwise nice car

 

[Beef-Mc]

Cars looking sweet.
