I don't have cruise either. Cruise is for queers ;) Pretty sure mines import though. No alarm etc.

I need the exhaust sorted as the clamp keeps coming loose and its keeps sagging, then i gotta find someone to mount it in the bumper for me as i dont want to start cutting the bumper and f*ck it up, and the exhaust centre wont do it...

Looks good buddy. The front looks identical to mine (Except the tow eye). Exhaust should look good when recessed too.

As for the engine bay. Black? I got plans for mine ;)

Im unsure as to what i want to do with the engine bay tbh... mayb spray the inlet black, i kinda like that orange too :eek: but engine bay is last on the list tbh


ur plans are?

I also noticed this thread is just mainly me and you... :(
 
  Megane 225 F1
Yh I noticed that too LOL. It's ok <3

Well as I painted calipers yellow, and I'm going to get my bullets in anthracite with yellow detail, I'm going to do yellow inlets/ plenum and then have either a black or anthracite engine cover.

Reet......

Firstly, the little touches to the front end completely transform the car, congratulations. The splitter and diamond make it look 1000x better!

Next on your list IS lowering, with just that, this will look very very nice!

For the engine, I'd whack the plenum off, spray is matt black, then sand the lettering so it comes up a nice silver, with the black, an orange engine cover may not actually look to bad, with a black 2.0 16V vinyl off Addy to finish it off.

Excellent work so far though :D

You can't put a spoiler on? Even I can do that, and before that, I was mechanically retarded.

Id rather get the bumper sorted first, its a cheap job and will sort the back end out, im waiting on some coilovers popping up so i can lower if not then il have to buy some new...

Thought about just doing it matt black, coz then it will fit in with the rest of the black stuff, whereas if i polished it then id have to get other parts ppoilished an thats ahrd work!

Cheers for the kind words <3

Didn't get it stuck this time then?;)

Nearly :rasp:

Well after my drunken ebay session a few days ago, i ended up buying some 40mm apex springs, so though sod it, just finished fitting them now.. Its not bad, a little bouncy but i think these are only going to be temp anyway. Few pics (crappy iPhone and the only lighting was the light outside... :( ) Will get better ones at the weekend when i clean it, and they have settled a little, but im hoping it doesnt settle to much as my centre section catches on the top of my driveway :(

Also since lowering the car the exhaust has been knocking like a b**ch and catching on speedbumps/driveways etc, so i took it back AGAIN asking them to sort the job out and the job they have done is just shite, it hangs down far to low, its blowing at the manifold because of the way the exhaust has been put on... the said they fixed it but no, still knocking and banging and still sitting shitty, so i took it somewhere else (I forgot about this guy or i would have went here in the first place) his work is brilliant iv seen alot of the things he has done, he spends most of his time fixing other peoples f*ck ups, got it onhis lift for him to look at and well he was quite virbal at the state of the exhaust and the welds.. couple pics of £275 worth of exhaust:

Im sure half of CS could weld better than that... So iv got it booked in with this guy on wednesday for him to comletly remove the system cut off the old pipework and start again, he also going to cut the bumper so it can be mounted how i want it.


Funking exhaust costing me a fortune ffs

Looking good mate! Calipers look good silver behind silver wheels. Shame about the exhaust. At least you ill be getting it done properly this time :)
