First decent clean...

[Martin!]

As per the title, gave the 172 it's first half decent clean of the year, and since i've had, as its only ever just been quickly washed, got just a quick 3 hour going over today really, quite surprised with the results, didn't think silver would come up quite so well with just one layer of polish...roll on when the weather is proper decent to spend my usual full day cleaning haha!

It would seem the previous owner never gave it a good polish, if any at all, it ideally needs clayed, and also need some tar remover, but that can be done next weekend

Piccies!

Nice clean Iceberg! Getting it lowered?

 

[Martin!]

Ben - Yeah theres some awesome locations for pics around this way

Lewis - I am indeed, I have a few plans for it, just waiting to MOT it at the end of the month then the "improvements" will commence

 

[Lewis_S]

good stuff lowered mine yesterday looks a million times better now just waiting for my F1s from powdercoating

 

[Martin!]

How low have you went? What suspension? I dont want a huge drop, so looks like i'll be going coilovers....unless there's any -20/-30mm springs about....haven't looked yet.

I went 40mm on Apex for now untill i decide on some coilovers! Bearing in mind il be on 15's in about a weeks time!

20-30mm drop youl be looking for a set of Eibach Sportlines mate

 

[Martin!]

Thanks Greeny

Lewis, cheers for that, had Eibach on the Scooby for a while and they were good matched with Billies...better start shopping lol

Nice mate, liking the location too

 

[Jamie]

Lol, I'll jump on the location bandwagon, looks cool and a bit different.

 

[Davis]

Yeh as said very good location! Car looks smart will look good when lowered!

 

[Martin!]

Cheers people...

Can't wait to start "sorting" it, just hope lowering it doesn't ruin the way it handles.

 

[Tigger]
