[Stu.]

Well i finally got a sunflower after wanting one for so long! It will be getting the majority of good bits off my Iceberg ph1 With some other tasty bits and peices aswell! Heres some pics of how it stands and bits I've got to go on

As i collected it -

With my Iceberg.

Not done alot to it yet. Have fitted JMS V6 airbox, Fitted black foglight surrounds, Fitted black side strips (not 100% on this yet) Ph1 rear lights back in. LED sidelights + interior light. CS sticker and corrected one of the headlights.

Have painted up my Matched inlets - engie mount bracket - fuel rail gaurd - throttle body - Cup spoiler - door grabs - fixed my carbon splitter also, And the 2 black F1s are now anth! So have a silver set and an anth set, Silver turbines and white 2118s. Choices choices! Some pics of said painted peices!

Got alot to do in the next few weeks like swap over suspention and stuff but it will get done! then when im payed I'll be getting the dephaser + belts done. So will be updating this alot over the next month and a bit Thats all for now I think!

C+C welcome

What you meh'n at

 

[Stu.]

Well Got a fair bit done today! Got my matched inlets fitted. New throttle cable, Carbon splitter, Have fitted carbon diamond too but not really sure on it though!, Silver wheels, Cup spoiler, Anth door grabs, Silver handbrake button. Also removed the strut brace but had been shodily fitted and I'm going to have to cover the holes somehow.

Cant decide between the colour coded side strips or the black, Both look good IMO. Heres a few pics!

Strut brace gone and only pic i have of splitter.

And at this point I with I'd stayed in bed...

Was dark by the time i had everything re-fitted so I'll get a pic tomorrow

 

[.Stevo.C.]

Looking good man keep the black sidestrips though its all about originality mate lol. I'm looking forward to seeing it in the flesh.

 

[Will.]

I'm unsure on the black or CC side strips. I'll get back to you. Both look great.

 

[aucky]

Really, really lovely.

 

[Adam.]

You keeping it at Pavs?

 

[Stu.]

See this is my thought but in person the CC'd strips do look quite good!

I'm unsure on the black or CC side strips. I'll get back to you. Both look great.

same predicament as me lol. Looks good either or I suppose!

Really, really lovely.

Cheers mate

You keeping it at Pavs?

Just while its off the road, It's currently SORN and no room at mine.

 

[Whiskerz16v]

colour coded for the win bro!

 

[SmokeyTheBandit]

And another sunflower joins the party
Looks very nice and crisp, i had some issue's with the clear finish on mine did yours have these issue's aswell ?
Thanx to you i made up my mind with the bullets going to keep them black.

 

[Cookson]

I prefer the black strips, breaks it up a little.

Lovely looking motor though

 

[It's.Lee]

Absolutely cracking buddy.

 

[Will.]

Ok I decided. Gloss black side strips.

 

[Paul172sport]

cracking car, gotta love the Sunflowers.


im the same dilema with the side strips, to colour code or not, i even thought of antracite as another contrast? but they've stayed black at the mo.

 

[Cookson]

ewwwww, not gloss black. That would look uber cheap

 

[Stu.]

Maybe look a bit better with black handles too, Might make the choice easyer.

Absolutely cracking buddy.

Cheers man, Will hopefully be out the end of this month / early next month

Ok I decided. Gloss black side strips.

Hmm no gloss black i dont think, Ordinary textured or CC'd lol

[Stu.]

[.GAZ.]

[Stu.]

Was at her today for a short while! it was pissing down with rain!! But got her idling properly after a seal under the inlets wasn't sitting right, But atleast thats my matched inlets on, Got my breather + silicone bend on the ICV, Made a temp TB gasket, Changed the battery as mine randomly died. Fitted my aluminium footrest too.

Tyres, New pedals, wishbone powerflex bushes also arived today, So get all that on soon! Took a few pics as it isn't tucked into the wall now, Opinions on the carbon diamond?

Engine bay for now

 

[Ash']

That looks ace CC'd the cup spoiler finishes the back end of nicely. IMO i'd just paint in the numbers on the bullets in black and leave it as it is .

 

[MDP91]

definitely colour coded.
