When i bought it xD

Plans:

- Paint badges orange
- Dual Optic Headlights
- Clear side repeaters
- PH2 Rear Lights
- Lower by 40mm
- Turini's or Team Dynamics 1.2 16" alloys

 

[DanEdser]

on the drive!

 

[DanEdser]

added rear speakers! (also upgraded front speakers and tweeters, but the door card and dash cover them up)

 

[DanEdser]

added sub and amp!

 

[DanEdser]

painted rear badges orange xD

 

[DanEdser]

just taken off front diamond, sanded it and will be priming it tomorrow!

 

[DanEdser]

I also plan to colour code front & back bumpers and the side strips ;D

Also I am adding a ph2 spoiler with a sport brake light

 

[DanEdser]

primed the front diamond!

 

[kerry-w]

Plans sound good so far, the dual optic headlights will make so much difference. Doing anything to the interior?

 

[DanEdser]

nah im leaving the interior as am on quite a budget at the moment!

 

[DanEdser]

done the final coat of the front diamond

 

[DanEdser]

the colour has dried, gonna leave it a bit longer before i put on the lacquer, as last time i thought it was dry after 8 hours, put lacquer on and the colour ran :/

Plans sound good, with it being only a 1.2 I wouldn't spend a fortune I'd be saving for something better, thats what I'm doing anyway.

 

[DanEdser]

yeah, im gonna keep it for a while until i can afford a sport... then i might strip this car and turn it into a track car xD

Copying my ideas!

Copying my ideas!

tehe

 

[DanEdser]

badge on the car!
looks really good against the black!

 

[DanEdser]

also i fitted crystal clear side repeaters with silvervision bulbs!

 

[DanEdser]

fitted the ph2 spoiler with sport brake light! looks SO much better!

 

[Tomas]

why not go for the ph2 172 rear?

 

[DanEdser]

because i think this looks good as it is now, just needs colour coding

 

[Tomas]

ha yeah was just an idea that came to mind

 

[DanEdser]

if i was gonna do that, i might as well have gotten a ph2 mate

 

[DanEdser]

decided after the ph2 rears ive ordered, all im gonna do is get some alloys then that's all im doing to the car, gonna save up for a cliosport 172 ph1 (think they look nicer than a ph2 for some reason xD)

 

[Bluebeard]

Did you get the lights ok Dan?

 

[DanEdser]

not arrived yet mate...

 

[Bluebeard]

You're having a laugh??! They were sent recorded delivery guaranteed within 48 hours.

I've got the tracking number in my van, i'll check it out tomorrow. See, now you're entitled to pm me and harrass me!!!

 

[DanEdser]

haha, yeah still not come yet :/

 

[DanEdser]

hopefully it should be here by tomorrow!

 

[Bluebeard]

They'd better do, they were sent wednesday lunchtime!

 

[DanEdser]

aha, who were they sent by? royal mail?

 

[Bluebeard]

I booked them in at the post office (3 parcels) and they were supposed to be sent via Parcel Force 48. Recorded delivery, guaranteed within 48 hours.

I knew I should have given them to the Kent lot at the trackday. You'd have had them Thursday night!

 

[DanEdser]

ah :/ well let's hope their here tomorow! if not.. get the tracking details and see where they're at!
