PH2 172

[ryanjafc]

Got this Ph2 172 last week as i needed a car while my other project is still ongoing before it becomes a daily.

Hoping to do some mods in the next few weeks as in: Lowering, exhaust, some interiors mod's. Once i have had it a bit longer then the bigger mod's will surely come

Here it is. Completely standard atm apart form the 182 wheels.

looks good lowering wil improve it alot! what interior mods u plannin

 

[ryanjafc]

New steering wheels is on the list so far, carn't find a boss for it though! everyone i find sais 06> or the mk1 :/

Then some carbon fibre bits or alacantra bits in the centre console.

 

[cliojack]

try ebay for a boss? carbon and alacntra sound good

 

[ryanjafc]

Just purchased a sheet of alcantara so gonna be doing the centre console soon.

Still looking for a boss and some lowering springs.

Meanwhile added a set of RS flags.

Also a few pics of my current project. 2litre 16vt Punto

Almost finished With that now and carnt wait to hit full boost on it

C+C welocme.

i wish you lived nearer ryan i wants a ride in the 16vt! , clio looks good mate, handle alot better than punto's dont they

 

[ryanjafc]

Cheers mate.

Oh Ye, hell of allot better. So much fun in the corners

 

[Kieran..]

looking good! punto looks like it will look alot better when finished!

what parts you covering in alcantara?

 

[ryanjafc]

Dash strips, A-pillars, hazard switch panel and the sides of the centre console and other little parts that are easily removed.

Just trying to cover the horrible plastic parts.

 

[Kieran..]

like mine i take it? does look nice

 

[ryanjafc]

Yes mate pretty much, Makes it look 100x better.

 

[ryanjafc]

Fitted a K+N air filter and a samco pipe.

And got round to putting alcantra on the a-pillars, Centre console up next.

I think they look allot better now.

car looks good needs a splitter too , how hard is to cover the A pillars in alcantara?

 

[ryanjafc]

Cheers mate. Yea be getting a splitter after Xmas. Got to get lowering springs and an exhaust first.

It's not really hard tbh. I used a can of spray glue placed the alcantara in the middle and worked out to the edges. Dries quick aswell, just a bit fiddly on the curved edges trying to pull the creases out and glue then ends down.

That was my 1st ever go and came out ok.

 

[ElkWorks]

love the punto, but i do love fiats, and had a mk1 punto in obligatory red

 

[Blacky950]

ah right might have a go when my new interior goes in at the weekend cheers

 

[ryanjafc]

Fitted a Magnex Cat back With twin exit yesterday. Received my Apex lowering springs so may fit them on the weekend.

Next up. Lowering springs, splitter, possibly new wheels.

 

[Kieran..]

dont like the exhaust sorry

 

[ryanjafc]

Looks a bit big but sounds just right and was a bargain. But after new year i will be making my own custom exhaust for it.
