Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

haha well at work it looked like it was going to be bye bye to my job, as my company was taken over in may and it looks like they have been trying to get staff out, as things stand now it looks more safe than i first thought and decided to keep it :)

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Decided on buying her a few little things as recently it's been a bit neglected

Roof is booked in for 14th november for 3 days
Alcantara to do the headlining
New sidelights as they both blown
New number plate bulb
New front and rear plates, both plain plates and front the better 3/4 size not the tiny one I have now
New horn as the terrible one that come with car no longer works

Oh and a cup spoiler Too :)

As for new wheels Im undecided what to go for, want it looking more standard looking and won't be going for the schmidts, it's either 2118s or silver 182 wheels spaced out and continue running the camber too

Sound good man. I know the reason for keeping the car etc but how comes the change of mind of the look of it? Good to hear the roof being done. I would like mine done too so let me know the cost when done?

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Just I was getting a little bored of the car and I Wana keep the handling and with the 8j wheels and spaced out I think it would ruin it tbh

And they are doing my roof for £240 inc vat and I have heard gOod things about them

Erotic sex was sooo last year! Lol

I've had a small dent in the roof ever since I've owned it and have bodged windscreen rubbers (will show you Sunday) and I'll be needing my car park dent removed so will get them to do the roof at the same time.

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Yeaaa I had it on my fiesta and felt so much nicer! Is it glued to the roof at all? As I swear ive seen someone do it and it's glued to the roof?
