My 182, ideas and info??

[Ash_09]

Right people, I don't post loads on here, more just to look at others and get ideas and that. Been looking at doing a few things and was curious on what people thought and if anyone could help? When I brought the motor it was pretty standard, apart from the k&n and the milltek back box. Since then I've tinted the windows, aero wipers put on, put on some 16" turinis (great buy from on here) which I had refurbished for good money in graphite schwarz. I've also done the engine cover in the same graphite schwarz.



Ill take some more pictures soon, but first of, I've noticed a few tiny little dents? Probably from other people's doors, there not overly noticeable but I know where they are an want to look at getting them pulled out if possible? Anyone know of anyone near the Southampton area?

Need your thoughts people?

Headlights could do with a refurb & lose the tints, then you'll be on to a winner IMO.

I was going to fit new lights, there pretty hazed up? Why don't you like the tints ??

Stick some 3m on them , they would look 100 times better

 

[Ash_09]

What you mean by 3M? On what?

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

Do a search for headlight restoration mate. Will look ten times better

 

[Ash_09]

Yea I did give that a go, went over with with 1500, then 2000? It got rid of the haze but there like smeared? So not sure if I can do anything about that?

You need to get something like Scratch X to go over it and bring them back up

Tints are renown for being a bit chavvy, sorry...

I might have to have a look at that kayzee, and yea fair comment, each to their own lol I like it so I can keep stuff in the back and people can't really see it?

Also good for kidnapping.

Ever tried using the boot?

 

[CrippsCorner]

Yeah but then you have to stop them opening it from the inside.

 

[Ash_09]

It's only my second car so just wanna tidy it up and get it looking nice?

JRC vehicle repairs are good for dent removal mate, I live in Southampton too, so may see you about.

 

[Ash_09]

[dubby]

They're in Fareham, a little bit of a drive but they do a good job!

[Ash_09]

I see a few about not loads, there's 3 other sports on my estate haha? Don't like Shirley high street, takes forever to get anywhere? Yea checked that JRC out, they look spot on? Will get in touch for a quote I reckon? Shouldn't be to pricey as there only small?

 

[dubby]

Yeah mate, I havent had dents done there but they are resonable, let us know what they say.

Don't like Shirley high street, takes forever to get anywhere?

Tell me about it! I drive up and down it everyday!

 

[Ash_09]

Yea will do fella, when I say dents, it sounds a lot worse haha but I'm probably just being picky?

Unlucky for you then haha, I try to stay well away from there?
