Ali, I think Im gonna get it repainted - to the right colour
when I get the sidestrips done and decided from there what to do with it, sometimes I like it sometimes I prefer the silver!

There's 4 shades of Flamered. Good luck! For under the bonnet it wasn't an issue. Problem arose when your pellet of a mate broke the cover off the oil bit and then the colour was different on that too!
In hindsight i wish i'd just detailed my engine bay and left it lookin std. Instead of painted and polished.
Decided to go back to standard.........I think!
Put the ph2 silver door handles on the other day and got a new Alpine on the way so gonna be adding some weight!

Ali did you get the engine cover painted at the same time as the cup spolier? Cause the spolier was a terrible colour match:rasp:
Yep! And the strut brace...Was the wrong flame red...thing is i wasn't there...so it was guess work!
Yeah I live near there, normally cut though. I'm sure you always spotted my Williams when it lived there.
If someone in a Pajero flashes you it'll be me.

You and me both!
Stereo is in
Quite clearly I lied!! That was back in January, whoops!
Oh well, fair bit to update then!
Right I'll start with the stereo then
Alpine CDA 9885R fitted with the Alpine stalk adapter which doesnt work with my display :S Also has my ipod in the glovebox which it has full control of and displays the track info on the head unit display. Very pleased with it, great bit of kit by Alpine as usual.
Also fitted a ph2 megane coupe splitter I happened to have lying about!
Got a ktec mk2 stealth
sounds great imo, although is a little visible but thats maybe down to my fitting or due to it being a ph1 bumper, I dunno! And no I can be arsed cleaning my exhaust!
Got a retrimmed wheel from MikeyK18
A wee comparision
and why I replaced it!
On the same day I knocked up some MDF rings to fit my 6.5" comps in that I had from the coupe
Set them up yesterday and very happy with the difference.
Then last week I went to get a quote for a wheel refurb for my OZ F1s and came away with these!
whoops! Anyway they have been sold on and are getting collected at FCS so they've been cleaned and put away safely!
So as my wheels are off getting refurbed as I type I needed something else to put on. Djw Dave very kindly gave me these
Also got the centre caps but couldnt be bothered putting them on. These will now be my winter wheels and I plan to refurb them myself before then but after FCS!
Middo sent me my colour coded badges and I chucked em on for s***s and giggles whilst I await the door strips
And today saw me changing my boot build, something I seem to do before every FCS! Even though I tend to keep my boot shut when there :S
This is the base floor
Top floor
Now I reckon the amp may get too hot without ventilation and I've always previously had the amps on show. However I decided against that this time so had to drill some holes to aid cooling!
Carpetted it
and fitted it
Then as I was running out of things to do until parts come I decided to polish the engine lettering! A supremely boring job which I didnt do for too long!
Also fitted a new number plate light that looks about 100 times better than the old one, works and has stopped my fog light symbol coming on when I indicate!
So now, before FCS I need to get on and fit my wishbones, new front brakes, new uprated shocks, polish and fit my refurbed wheels and get my tracking done.
I want to have my colour coded strips on by then as well.
So not too bad really!
Cheers for reading the essay!
John
Thanks Lou
Aye, its made a huge difference to the look of the interior, the old one was letting it down big time!
Golf R
