[E-ray_172]

standard at the moment, next little plans will be - colour code bumper strip , ph2 clio rear lights. think some things are best left alone imo.
had it for 2 months now and loving it lots.

[M1TCH]

B-E-A-UTIFUL!!!!

hows about clear side repeater too?

 

[Blue4Ever]

Very nice mate.

IMO - Colour code, Clear Side repeaters, Silvervisions, and then poss turinis and tints if you fancy doing a bit more.

 

[E-ray_172]

cheers fella's, yep forgot to add clear side repeater to. i am thinking about the K-tec stealth, but worried about the knocking problems i have been hearing.

just make sure its fitted right.

the common knocking problem with Ph1 172s is actually nothing to do with the exhaust.

car looks great :approve:

Nice car and leave it

I was going to suggest those aswel. What about silvervision indicator bulbs though to get rid of the orange tinge. Another subtle one you could consider would be ph2 rear lights?

I hadn't either mate until I saw before and after pictures on here. The difference is minimal but so effective. Just tidys the look of the car up nicely in a simialr way that clear side repeaters do.

Looks good mate, nice clean engine bay.

 

[Bluebeard]

i put on mine; Stealth exhaust, 40mm apex springs, K&N ik, turinis, ph2 rear lights, laguna splitter, clear sides and its the best things i ever did!!!!! Makes me want to sex wee every time i get it out the garage!!

Good luck with it bud, post some pictures when your done!

Oh, and colour coded 182 side mouldings, they look ten times better than colour coded ph1 ones!!

 

[Pumpkin]

very nice mate and good plans for it

 

[Christopher]

very nice indeed.

i don't belive you about keeping it standard though. i thought i would do that with my Mk1. and look at it now. lol

 

[cK]

Carbon, what colour did you spray your badges and what did you spray them with?

 

[Christopher]

The colour is called 'Rover Gunmetal'

i sanded them all down and primered them, 3 coats of base then 2 coats of laquer.

job done. they'll match my wheels soon too.
