Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

haha i havent got the wheels on the car yet as working till sunday now, i take it 25mm wouldnt make them stick out to far so they arent legal?

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

busy morning today

ripped out the headlining after removing all the plastics and sunvisors etc

then put on my oz f1s

rubbish pictures but you get the idea, will get some spacers because the rear defiantly isnt out enough with the camber

cars in the bodyshop for 3 days from tomorrow, roof resprayed and cup spoiler sprayed too

also it will be going lower cos the wheels look a bit tiny at the front but i have decided to sit down and watch the formula 1

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Whats the plan with the roof liner? Looking good though

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

thanks matey, im doing it in grey alcantara should finish it off really nicely inside

 

[dmallett]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Sounds good, ill keep an eye on this one then! As i need to do something with mine at some point

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

i done it once before in my fiesta zs and it was so easy and i been meaning to do this with the 172 for ages now, finally getting done

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

First couple of pics with the f1s and I wasn't too sure, but the last one parked up makes up for it you keeping them silver or changing colour?

Nice idea on spraying the interior parts too. Gets rid of that horrid grey lol!

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

yeaaa the pics were shoddy and always are when outside my house but they do look good, wheel benefit alot when get 25mm spacers and a good refurb and they will be staying silver

yepp it should look all good when back together wednesday/thursday

 

[ROB91]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Really like the silver f1's on the and iceberg. Tidy car :approve:

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Thanks alot mate

 

[Jekyll]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

You going 25mm all round?

Was looking at mine after I fiddled with the coilovers today, and mine needs spacing.

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Yeaa I think I most probably will go all round

Haha did you manage to 'raise' it? Lol

 

[Jekyll]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Yep! Around 1/2" all round. (up to go up lol)

I was looking at chippin flamer and that looks spot on imo. Think he's 25mm front, 15mm rear off the top of my head. Yours should look good though mate

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

yeaaa i just looked again, does sit nice that, wont be for a couple weeks before getting spacers anyways

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

I might have some spacers soon kieran, Exactly the same as the fk system b ones, Having some machined at work.

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

ohh really? what size?

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

15mm, 20mm & 25mm as thee are the most popular sizes, Will be just before the end of the months or early December before we get chance to get them machined.

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Okay sounds good to me! What sort of price would I be looking at? And would they come with longer wheel bolts?

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Demon tweeks sell them at £105 a pair, I should be able to do them at £60ish, Wont be using the longer wheel bolt system as some say its unsafe, Will be the ones that bolt to the hub and then the wheels bolt to the spacer.

 

[Jekyll]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Oh I could be interested in these too

 

[rollerdan]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Just read the whole thread really good progress dude ! Loving the headliner idea is that tricky or simple job?


Id also be intrested for the spacers!

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

It's simple mate, the hardest thing was getting the handles out and was still pretty simple lol

Okay well I would probably be looking for the 20mm ones mate

[Dan@M.A.D]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

[rollerdan]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

[plymcl172]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

i used to love your car all semi standard ! :dapprove:

I feel sad now !

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

the material is from ebay but i think he has no more stock, weather he is going to restock i dont know

it will look good again soon promise. its almost standard looking now apart from wheels lol

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

while the car is in bodyshop i got on with a few things today

the plastic bits all sprayed up black

then moved on to the headlining

mock up of when it will be all fitted back

 

[plymcl172]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

maybe its just the wheels but I dont think they suit the car, i quite like the white ones that you had ! is the spoiler on yet ?

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

hmmm i did like those, these will look better after a refurb and when i lower it more

and nope hopefully i get the car back today from the body shop with the roof resprayed and spoiler

 

[ElkWorks]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

should really respay the sunvisors etc on mine as it has the black headlining, what paint did you use?

 

[Kieran..]

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

ermm halfords matt black enamel spray, but since pics i decided to lacquer them as i dont want them to chip off
