Nimbus Grey FF RS 197

[matty197]

Bought this around 3 weeks ago, totally standard, just serviced with 26k on the clock...

Exactly what I was after, got lots of plans

So my plans.....

Cosmetic
- Paint the wheels gloss Black
- Paint the badges gloss black.
- Paint the wingmirrors gloss black
- Gloss Black diffuser
- Paint the brembo calipers yellow & fit black brembo decals
- Black Projector headlights
- Smoke the foglights
- Cup Spoiler to match car with gloss black end caps
- Yellow Silicone coolant and induction hoses
- Carbon trim under bonnet (instead of plastics)
- Carbon Interior Trim
- Legal Pressed Metal Plates
- 16mm Spacers on Rear
- Gloss Black Wheel Bolts/Locking Wheel Nut to suit wheels

Eventually after I have the car looking like I want it I will purchase some carbon parts ie. bonnet/badges etc...

Performance
- ITG Panel Filter
- Lower 30/40mm on H&R Springs (Will eventually get coilovers but I cant hack the high ride for the time being)
- K-tec Decat
- Supersprint full system probably christmas time when I get a work bonus
- Remap

Thos are the intitial plans, after all those are done will probably become a little more hardcore and track specific

Any comments/suggestions welcome on the car or choice of mods

Not going for a Cup spoiler to finish the back end off?

Looks good dude, have to keep us posted with pics. I'm quite new to this so can't really be of much help sorry haha.

Cheers people..

Sargara... yeah I am going for a cup spoiler!! Adds quite a bit of style to them I think, just not looking forward to drilling holes in my new car so building up the courage

Nimbus is awesome but it does need mods.

Did any R27's come in Nimbus?

Yeah needs a lot of mods pal, specially on the front end way too much silver going on!!

Yes R27 did do Nimbus's mate, quite rare really though I personally didn't come across many examples but they look stunning with red brembos and anthracite wheels...

I wanted Nimbus with low mileage would of liked a R27 for the few extras but they where higher mileage than what I wanted for the budget I had...

I travel a fair bit and found the Normal seats more comfy than the Recaros also... personal preference I guess...

It's got to be said, you're not very good with a camera.

Nice car though.

Hahha, It is something I wish I was good at but I don't even know the basics... just point and take with the iphone 4

Until you ruin it with a cup spoiler.

Sack off all of the expensive carbon bits / painting and do track time

Love that - your to do list scares me though.

All of it!
