Nothing unless you ant the stalks to work

 

[bozzi]

ok would u recomend geting one

They can fit straight in, but you need a megane fascia to neateen it up, pretty sure i left one in the car as it isnt here, then the looms are plug and play unless you want the steering controls to work, at which point you need to PM matt (MTaudio) on here, he'll hook you up.

 

[sofaboy]

Not bad mate yourself ?

Im good mate, hows the meg, taking it to FCS?

 

[BioHzrd]

The facia is like £3 on ebay if i remember right !

Epically gash, Welding a diff is a no no, all the bushes on the backend of the car are 13 years old, welding the diff has thrown them over the edge, gonna have to polybush up. Ye il be at FCS and maybe even on track

Why you think i binned the Supercharged Ek9 (Firas's expensive habit car now) was old and the charger/engine was foooocked ! Old cars arnt easy to live with but can be epic fun if you have the patients and the deep pockets

I should be on track but dunno yet depens on current job situation

So after Owning FFG for a year I thought I may aswell put up its first proper thread. After Seeing F0xy's MK2 on ZSOC I fell in love and was put off a MK5 zetec-s, then I saw Biohzrd's car at the start of its life on coilovers and standard wheels and slowly fell in love, Then as I passed my test my brother got this very car in at work so I had to have it.

Its New life began, It's a 1.4 dynamique S with Air con, One lady owner before me, who didn't look after it, Kerbed to fark wheels, and a carpark dent, the car had £400 thrown at it when I bought it sorting out some big paint issues, and was cleaned up to remove the Full dogs worth of doghair.

Very Early on in life... No mods, Other then Painted blue calipers, osram indicator bulbs and an alpine IDA x-100 headunit.

As mentioned

Some people will remember a thread about it getting egged... twice.

They used lots of eggs, i mean They threw a chicken and it laid them all over, well that's how it felt, to this day FFG still has those scars, Paint Chipped in numerous places Not had it looked at but probably needs paint.

I felt depressed and neglected poor FFG for a month or so, then thought Meh Black wheels ftw. So.....

Needs tyre gel.

So then I wanted a bit more noise, Without changing the exhaust so bought a BMC DIA airbox, No pictures of that though. Then I rocked up to my first CS meet as mr standard stance.

Random

The car sat like that for a long time, until I changed jobs.

Then I beat the immigrants from my arches, and bought some 45mm springs and 25mm rear spacers.

Mid fit.... got stance? no neither have I.

This is how she sat after god sneezed out some cocaine.

I cried the front was still too narrow. So 25mm spacers it was.

Then this happened/

On went some chav spec 8000K xenons, Plus the marmite yellow fogs. Whilst the bumper was off I wrapped my badge in 3M di-noc.

Then I rocked up to a mini meet and got a few snaps.

Thats pretty much how she sits, Bought her a camo samco for the BMC.

and a pink CS sticker.

Rocked upto the NW meets NE meet.

Wrapped some interior bits.

Then Rocked upto the Feb CS meet.

A bad picture from the cat and fiddle.

Cleaned her today, applied hello kitty before the meet.

and thats how she sits now.

2010 is going to be a good year for FFG.


Thanks for reading.

Love this car! And even more love for that little blue smiley sticker! Where did you get this from?
