Story So Far....

[BioHzrd]

Bit bored and my springs appeard today lol so yeah heres a lil look at the car feom beginning and almost the end....end will be monday hopefully when i get springs fitted...

First got the car in January 06 didnt pass test till March though !!

2 days after passing my test......

First things first it wasnt loud enough ! so back box and a month or so later an induction kit

Didint look right imo so went for some tints, Black in rear light smoke in front sadly got pulled by police and told forced to remove my front tints was a sad day !!!

This very day some nice 182 wheels...almost finished it off but does look like a monstertruck !

Today the saviors came 35mm lowering springs hopping for a nice drop of 40mm once they settle in...well once i get the damn things fitted...why do garages have to close at 6 grrrrrrr

The predicted outcome...some thing near to that

Smoked sides i will get soon enough and callipers will be painted Yellow once i get the chance

Comments would be nice from folk....

Cheers

Yeah most likly but ill still hope for a ddrop a lil bit more than it although id say 35mm will still look sweet !

 

[Giles]

looking good

 

[Renault_Boy01]

looks good...will look much better when lowered

 

[DebV6]

Looks good I think it needs colourcoding now though just to finish it off

 

[Josh220]

looks nicely done mate

 

[R20 CWH]

looking good. springs will tidy it up nicely.

consider mk2 rear clusters?
a wee front splitter and cup spoiler would look lush

 

[davebem]

Nice work, it took 6 months for my apex springs to settle on my old 1.2.

 

[BioHzrd]

Colour Coding a No No dont like the look of it too much green !!!

Already got Ph2 rear clusters on there, my old splitter got screwed by a rabbit lol and not sure if i want to replace it. Still considering cup spolier though.

Thanks for all the comments appreciated

 

[Ali]

Won't be that low son! Getting beta tho.

 

[BioHzrd]

As long as its noticably lower than above i really dont care !!!

 

[Ali]

wouldn't be hard!lol

 

[BioHzrd]

Lol very tru mate very tru...still cant wait to get it lowered and go throw it round see how it handels lol

 

[R20 CWH]

a rear spoiler will seriously add to presence matey

 

[BioHzrd]

Only thing is getting my hands on one

 

[R20 CWH]

iv got a silver 172 one if you want it - its not a cup tho -

 

[BioHzrd]

Depends on how much it would cost me to get it sprayed....got ne pics ne way mate and a roguth price ?

 

[Martin_172]

35mm springs will hardly even lower it, wont even be noticeable really. u find that with 35 or 40mm springs on non RS models, id only go 60mm

you SERIOUSLY need to sort that exhaust thats a mess, sticks out far to much. raised, brought back and cut into bumper would be nicer.

id get front fog lights and front 172/S front lights.

 

[samg1988]

be awesome lowered. get asplitter next defo!

 

[dutty_112]

35mm..will look the same

 

[S22 JGS]

lookin good

 

[leighk18]

there is a lot of dynmaic spoliers going on ebay for 35 + 10 postage in matt black so no rush to get it sprayed just order myn just got to wait fot it to come now does any body no at all were i can get fogs for my mk2 ph1 as looked and cant find cars will look nice when droped if i was you id turn it in to a 172 rep

It will lower it noticibly mate.....Exhaust has been raised up to the bumper im not cutting it in and to much of a job to cut it again and move it furtherin if im doing that ill buy a new one !

Fogs are a no dont want them, dont need them and plus im not trying to make a Sprot look alike just want my car too look the way I want it


Leigh you got a link to one of them ??

Exactly :rasp: and plus 60mm drop for me would be stupid as there a shed load of hills ive got to go up n down so id have no front bumper left...another reason ive left the spliter for now

 

[GarethM]

not bad mate

but as said needs lowering 60mm imo, i lowered my old 1.2 40mm on apex and could hardly tell tbh.

 

[BioHzrd]

Like a said above 60mm is a no go with the places i have to drive about....35 imo will look fine

 

[BioHzrd]

Roll on 6 on monday when i finish work and go collect the car i shall thorw up some pics as soon as i get it !!

 

[Christopher]

40mm springs won't give you that drop tbh, but it'll look a lot better!

nice one

 

[BioHzrd]

They will give me something that changes he look of the car and as long as it lowers it a fair amount the to be honset its done what i payed for ! and plus after a month or so they will settle in and hopefully have srop a lil more

 

[Djw John]

40mm springs won't give you that drop tbh, but it'll look a lot better!

nice one

But mine was 40mm and clearly it dropped mine a fair old whack!

 

[Christopher]

hmmm, get them on and see

 

[Djw John]

Will take a good few thousand miles though tbh!

[Leeshez]

[BioHzrd]

Woooop picked it up and lovin how it looks cant wait for the springs to get beded in properly though should look even better.... Oh yeah 10mm spacers on the rears to stop it rubbing the inner arches....

Dont care what anyone says i love it :rasp:

 

[Saner]

lol, this looks very familiar.

The car will look great colour coded the right way, trust me

 

[Beef-Mc]
