The Bora.

[Tunst]

Needs more lows.

 

[Jason_E]

Needs a chassis notch to achieve that. I know someone that'd do it for me for £150 but that seems a bit steep to me!

 

[Tunst]

Just get it done n00b!

 

[_Tom]

Honestly mate looks so much better silver. The new combo looks cheap. Not that my opinion matters and its your car..lol

Should have gone cream.

 

[dajones]

Jas can you do some pics minus the roof rack? i honestly think it would look better without,

Looks mint on those wheels. I still dont get why you bought a green one though... you're immediately on the back foot.

i want to defend the green because of the passat...although it doesn't bother me that much...lol
the only reason i got a the green because it was a cheap family hand me down...lol, but once clean mine really pops

 

[Craigus]

Has anyone mentioned the Audi centre caps? What is that about?

I got mine as it was mint and had low mileage! And you're right, the colour has a real nice sparkle to it.

Would look soooo much better without the roof rack.

Smooth bupers and it is epic.

+1.. do you even use the roof rack?

 

[dalla]

Wheels looks amazing. Well played. Much more original and well thought out. I agree on smoothing the bumpers.
Maybe black out the headlamps and loose the OEM grill?
It is getting there though mate. A chassis notch would look awesome.
This actually makes me want a Bora now.

 

[Ads_172]

Green is the future. It's a nice shade when cleaned up too.

Prefer the cream wheels though. Not really getting the splatter.

 

[Jason_E]

Yeah hence why I am keen to keep it! Spose I won't use it as much in the winter, but as soon as I even think of taking it off I have to use it for something.

OEM Grill? It has the OEM Grill on? Do ya mean a blank one with no VW badge? If so, not much of a fan tbh! Same with "Smoothing" Bumpers. Bora's suit more of a colour code which I will be doing as soon as I can really

Thanks for the kind words!

Yeah, when it comes to spring they will get a pro refurb. Possibly cream.

 

[dalla]

Yeah colour code will look good too. Yeah i ment a grille without the badge. Cream wheels will look cool too i think. Or maybe a matt brown colour of some sort?

 

[Jason_E]

Little update.

Finishing the wheels today, hopefully. STILL haven't sorted the CV boot or fitted the brake pads. Had them sitting ready for like a month lol! Also have some fresh ideas for the front bumper, which could either look good or bad. So may buy a second front bumper to do it with, just in case it does look pap. It'll be done over xmas when my artistic friend is back from Canada. You can probably guess from that but that's all I'm saying!

 

[Andy.]

I'd like it more without the roof rack. Looking good though.

 

[Christopher]

Second picture looks great.

 

[Nafoff]

second picture does lookm very cool,
just get it wrapped in a soapy wet dripping print style film

 

[Christopher]

I meant because you can't tell that it's f*cking green.

 

[Jason_E]

Your name is green.

 

[Christopher]

Yes! Yes it is!

 

[Jason_E]

Now I have to spunk on the screen to cover that up?

Green is the new black.

 

[JD]

Wheels look VERY out of place

 

[Naith]

oh, you've washed it.

 

[Jason_E]

Wheels look VERY out of place

Too big? Too small? Wrong style? Please elaborate.

oh, you've washed it.

Well I had to put SOME pictures up for an update.

 

[ForceIndia]

Do not want, do not get. But I am old.

 

[Naith]

ok i'll try to be constructive. i think the door handles would look great wrapped in REAL cf.. think extremeinferno chap... or is that not kool/scene?

 

[Jason_E]

Probably not cool or scene, but it's better than faded plastic! Plus it would make a great project for when I'm doing composites at college (we have to design and make something out of CF). It's either that or colour code.

 

[JD]

Too big? Too small? Wrong style? Please elaborate.

Too big, too fussy, and I like flat faces on the wheels... Those don't suit the car.

Do not want, do not get. But I am old.

I feel your (back) pain.

 

[Rob]

Looks rather nice in the pics, but no actual detailed shots of the wheels? Loser!

You jest, but I'm in fcuking agony at the moment.

Just for you!

 

[Rob]

I'm actually quite impressed. Good work. Did you lacquer them?

 

[Jason_E]

Chears! I'm proud of myself LOL. Naa no lacquer. Matt finish innit.

I'm not too bothered about them, it's just black is easier to keep clean in the winter!

 

[Bluebeard]

Should have done them cream.

In all fairness, I think the wheels are too big for the look you're trying to achieve.

Stop with the Cream! You'll get your cream soon enough.

Probably right, but I have the whole winter to save up if I want something different. For now though I like these. They sit just how I want them to!

 

[JCC]

The front bumper idea, same idea as the bonnet of the Peden Conceptz 106? If so, that might look pretty cool!

 

[Jason_E]

Naa, that was going to be the idea for the roof. But we have a different Idea for the bumper. Although it's along the same lines really!

 

[Tunst]

Any updates with this? :rasp:

Was thinking about your steel wheel situation earlier (dont ask why because i have no idea...) Our Landrover spare wheel is a steelie, why not get some adaptors made for some discovery wheels? Although they are 19" and only 175.. Maybe to big and not wide enough? They are on a TDV6 if u wanted to check up on it :rasp:
