Adam's Inferno

adam248 · Dec 6, 2011

Well I have owned the car about 6 months now and though I had best start a thread for it.

Firstly it is a good step up form my 1.7 puma although the puma was alot of fun to drive the clio is in another leauge.

When I first picked up the 182 it had a Milltek catback exhaust and Uprated brakes although I am unsure what manufacture these are.

Since then I have a Milltek decat fitted, Bullets painted, dash strips done painted in Inferno and also this weekend I have sprayed my RS grille, Splitter, Fog surrounds, Rear bumper trim and Exhaust surrounds. (No pics yet) About a month ago I had some PS3's fitted on the front and they shocked me with how well they grip.

I also have some Eibach Sportline to fit that I picked up from a member on here.

So here are some pics.

As i picked it up.

My first thing to change was the bullets and dash strip etc... I had these done by the spray shack on here, brilliant job I must say.

Good clean before bullets were fitted.

Bullets fitted.

The dash strips etc... I am still usure on the gear insert and wheel insert think it looks a bit ott.

I will post up some pics when I have the springs fitted. Any comments, ideas or suggestions welcome.

I was thinking about the 3/4 plate are these legal/attract attention?

Also I was thinking about going for an anthracite front and rear badge.

New RS badge is a good possibility. Cheers

I love this car! I have just bought an inferno myself I have been looking at the sport lines but I cant decide if the drop will be enough for me! maybe a few before and after shots?

cheers

There not yet fitted mate I should be doing them either tomorrow or next weekend but I will post some pics up.

3/4 plates are illegal , you run the risk , but just carry standard plate in boot or something with some Velcro coins and you'll be fine

adam248 · Dec 11, 2011

Eibachs Should be fitted next week. But here are some pics of the splitter, grille etc since they have been sprayed. (car is dirty at the moment)

Pic below shows before.

This standard plate in the boot sounds a good idea.

JFS · Dec 11, 2011

Looks good mate, could do with doing something similiar with mine as the grills are looking rather faded. :approve:

Eibach Sportlines fitted

These fitted on fairly easy went on alot quicker than i first expected took nearly two hours.

anyway a comparison (Sorry for crappy pics some will follow eventually)

BEFORE

AFTER

I Think it definately has a better stance now reduced the rear arch gap thankfully.
It Just needs a good clean now then it should look alot better (well for a day or so

)

Any coments welcome cheers

Really nice car! I do like that colour. The bits you sprayed black on the front look smart to.

Thanks mate its just in need of a good clean now.

readie · Dec 18, 2011

looks very nice! am struggling to keep mine clean at the moment too i think after seeing the improvement on the sportlines i am going to go for these! how is the ride? much different from the normal ride?

adam248 · Dec 19, 2011

I don't really think there is that much diference, im not too sure handling wise due to the weather at the moment. I think cosmetically it looks loads better.
