Finally some photos. (Smooth ph1 'marmite' content!)

[littleC18]

okay, so first things first, this is still a work in progress.
some of you may remember my progress thread which i stopped adding to about 6 months ago. i will update it in the near future but thought i'd upload these photos. they were taken about 4 weeks ago.
a few things before i start getting majorly criticised. yes i know the exhaust needs sorting, its booked into powerflow to have it shortened and new hangers.
yes i know my front bumper is a big baby eating snow plowing, what ever you want to call it. i have some Audi Rs4 mesh to go in the front, its subtle and not 'chavvy' and 'rude boiiiii!'

i also apologise for the car being dirty and the poor photo quality (taken on my phone)
anyway, here goes.......

and my favourite

still to do:

Borbet a's to go on. 15x8 et15. strictly summer wheels
smoothed ariel, black roof
smooth boot with boot popper.
wind the coilovers down some more
respray side strips and rear quarter panel
call out arch enemy to flare the rears
mesh in front bumper
sort exhaust out
dual optic headlights
bbs centre caps in front two wheels (already done)

any other suggestions for mods will be appreciated. really want to get this in a magazine at some point so need some idea's to make it realllllly different

C+C welcome

Quite like the wide mouth bumper, was a mod i was going to do on my old ph1

 

[Clio_Al]

very nice lovin the wheels.

nice to see a modified 5dr ph1 like mine.

 

[littleC18]

5dr's are brilliant. so convenient and i quite like it with the whole euro style. the wheels are actually bmw wheels ahaha

 

[Clio_Al]

I thought they were bbs

 

[Struggler]

glad my parts have gone to a good home
looks good, will look much nicer when the wheels are on!

 

[littleC18]

I thought they were bbs

they are, they are the origional bbs's than come on the E30 3 series. had them bored out to fit!

 

[littleC18]

glad my parts have gone to a good home
looks good, will look much nicer when the wheels are on!

cant wait for the borbets. it should be pretty epic. and the black roof!
and thank you for being the source of my parts, even if the drivers side side skirt likes trying to fall off all the time!

 

[maynard]

smart!

 

[littleC18]

oh and the big splitter is comng off the front so i can go lower

 

[Tunst]

Get urself a skoda one, they are small enough to go loooow

 

[Clio_Al]

What suspension setup have you got there

is that splitter off a megane ?

 

[littleC18]

its a laguna splitter, but going for the thin megane one which is like the one on the rear bumper. and its just on the rokkor coilovers with a hug conversion and camber bolts. with about 3 degree's of negative camber on the rear. pretty good setup for handling and comfort tbh

 

[JCC]

The bra and the rear splitter are the biggest letdowns, it's not even sitting straight?

Will be a big improvement when the Borbets go on.

 

[Philip.]

I'm liking it
Nice to see another set of Rokkors doing the business.

 

[toomer]

Like this mate!

 

[oliver.james]

I like that :approve:

 

[justin_]

smae as mine =]
look mine let down is the rear spiltter look 'tacky'
but look nice :approve:

 

[Whiskerz16v]

Rear splitter looks ok... Needs a hidden exhaust though! Euro FTW!!!!

 

[kerry-w]

Looks good! Shame its not a 3dr though

How did you do the widemouth at the front? My grill is all mashed up and has the prongs cracked off in places so wouldnt mind having a chop at mine!

 

[tommys]

I'll be honest with you, I'm afraid I don't like it. But each to their own! Good luck with the rest of the mods.

 

[Jon.G]

You did well to get the garage in every picture!
Clio's not my cup of tea though!

 

[littleC18]

fair enough. alot have work has gone into it, i am proud of it ad everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

as for the front bumper it too a long while to do. the recess and fogs were plastic welded and fibreglassed over the a skim of filler. and the widemouth was done litterally with a hacksaw to remove the slat then filed away at the sides and fibreglassed the gap with some wire mesh to strengthen it then its just a case of snading until smooth and spraying. easy enough to do, just time consuming.

 

[VIICarCare]

wow, last time i saw this it looked pretty normal! Now it looks crackin! Really nice mods you done there, when i get my coilovers sorted we should get some pics together

 

[keirravn]

looks nice man, that bonnet bra has to go though spoils it imo! but i hate bras on anything lol!

its smoking from the rear

 

[Scott™]

I like that.

 

[Greeny.]

Not my cuppa but all looks well done

 

[littleC18]

Thanks for all the comments guys, Dawn, slam the ph2 and then we'll get some photos! im around all this week if your up from grabbing some photos?

 

[Dweeb]

i wanna go down this route

 

[Leeshez]

Very nice .

 

[Christopher]

Not really my thing, but at least you've done it to a decent standard.

 

[jamesd1263]

[littleC18]

[leeds_182]
