sport spoiler and lows, and you're half way there!

know anyone selling one cheap? preferably black lol. (dad says i should get one spray it white, opinions on this please ) spoiler and wheels are next on the list

how much am i looking at for a set of 172's with good tread all round? not too fussed on minor scuffs cause i would be spraying them black anyways, ebays not really coming up with any close by.

id leave it the spoiler black, that way it runs with the roof

 

[mx1_champ]

just colour code yours, and wheels are about 200-250ish with decent tyres

 

[Unlucky Alf]

Right. Things are happening at long last. I didn't bother doing anything with the van what with my ex being pregnant lol. Now I'm back making a bit more money I can crack on.

Over the last week I've ordered:
New, clean reg plates (using electrical tape to cover the Leeds City Council on the bottom of mine atm"

Osram nightbreakers
White led sidelights (have yellow ones in which are nearly red atm lol
Led numberplate light.
Led interior light, which makes a huge difference!


Some black vinyl for the dash strips. Gonna get some more for the bumpstrips too
Also a couple days ago I picked up some 172 alloys which I'm hoping to have on by Saturday if the rain stops! These will be sprayed black at some point, again weather dependant.

That's about it for now. Think the next big thing will be skirts or 172 rear bumper over the next couple months.

No pics atm though cause I'm just waiting for everything to arrive.

Put a F4R in , then kill all the other vans . The white van man

 

[Dr HMS Derv Destroyer]

Needs a ph3 front bumper if your doing the skirts will look amazing. Make it a loud DCI aswell haha

 

[Unlucky Alf]

Will I need longer wheel bolts for the alloys? Cause I imagine the alloys are thicker than steelies?

 

[Dr HMS Derv Destroyer]

Erm I think you do. I remember my DCI cAme with the dynamique wheels and a steel spare. The spare had its own type of wheel bolts for some reason. ( probs shorter )

Get some off here.

 

[MatthewR]

Looks good Liam, are you still looking at lowering it at some point?

 

[Unlucky Alf]

Bolts seemed to go all the way through and had all the thread sticking through so put them on lol

 

[JaredHasNoBrain]

just had look over everything, IMO would look alot beter with a bit more lows and a sport front bumper!
apart from that Clio vans are cool haha

 

[Mickb]

looks good with the alloys on. colour code will make all the difference too or even just the handles

 

[Unlucky Alf]

Terrible pictures but I've just finished wrapping my dash strips. Few creases on the edges but for my first attempt I think it looks alright

 

[MatthewR]

Looks good, have you thought about changing the door cards for some planer ones?

 

[Unlucky Alf]

I have and I think I'll have a go of re-trimming them myself in some plain fabric or something not sure when I'll get round to that though I just want the outside looking better for now

 

[Unlucky Alf]

Added a bit of colour to the dash strips and mirror cover. also have a nice white numberplate light that makes a huge difference!

 

[Unlucky Alf]

Quick wash and I wrapped the bumpstrips yesterday, looks loads better!

Somehow posted in wrong thread, stupid phone :S

 

[LiamR172]

You need a sport kit and slam it!

 

[Unlucky Alf]

It's a work horse so can't really be slammed unfortunately, decorating stuff in the back.
