Changed for the better!

[Stueylouey21]

This was how my car looked when I first brought it, I hated it but could see the potential! had it nearly 2 years now and much much happier with the look of the car

And now.....

 

[Stefan.]

Very nice.

 

[Mr Plums]

Looks lovely that mate, i love turinis.

 

[Bluebeard]

Very nice.

 

[Knuckles]

It instantly looks 150% less McDonald's.

Good work lol

 

[Stueylouey21]

pictures aren't the best, just taken on my phone but i agree turinis transform the car

 

[Stefan.]

Got spacers on aswell??

 

[AdDaMan]

Bought.

 

[Stueylouey21]

Spacers are one of the next things on my list, not sure on make.. Size.. Etc

I think you need to go to Specsavers!

 

[Adam93]

The previous owner should be shot for putting those wheels on. Horrific. Looks much nicer now.

:laughing: joking!

 

[Smiffyboy1990]

Look's million time's better! Cup's look lovely!

 

[Daz.]

Looks much better - shame the turinis aren't silver though

 

[imprezaworks]

Id prefer the way they are personally

 

[PP200t]

Looks a million times better mate, well done. Saw a 172 cup advertised a while ago, owned by a "mature man" and that was wearing some hideous 17" alloys and stickers.

 

[dablk]

soooo much better. I hope you managed to off load the wheels to some over excited 17 year old...

Cheers mate, its been lowerd on the dreaded apex 40mm springs! was all i could afford at the time.. but ill be honest i dont think they are too bad!

 

[Stueylouey21]

Also the wheels were sold to a middle aged man, a very strange middle aged man to be fair! But to be honest id have paid someone to take them away!

black ariel is also on the list.. this one doesnt even work tbh get very poor signal! im guessing they just screw off?

 

[dablk]

Yeah, just be carfule it's not seized and tries to turn the whole mount. I got a stubby one off ebay. Not a 100% size match to the mount but good enough.

I did try to unscrew it a few weeks back and it felt pretty solid so i stopped before i did any damage! ill have another go and maybe be a bit braver!

 

[Cub.]

Excellent recovery job. Lovely car now

 

[Stueylouey21]

Cheers bud, still got a long list of things to do! But very happy with it

 

[Fantom]

Great job! Much improved

 

[jayse182]

Looks so much better now good job I always wonder why people do what they do to these cars and think they look good

 

[Stueylouey21]

Looking for peoples opinions....

I need a new exhaust in the very near future and my backbox fell off the other day! its been welded at the moment. but....

Do i stick with a stealth exhaust or go for a recessed? Cant make up my mind if i like seeing the exhaust on a 172 or not! and the idea of cutting the bumper... help!
