Which should I do next?

[theduck]

I have mk2 ph1 1.6 8v. I have dynamique alloys, twin exit cat back exhaust, eibach pro's (going on next month) ph2 rear lights (again going on next month) and a 172 spoiler.

What should i do next? I have been considering BenR's inlet manifold work, a Green Dynatiwst induction kit, or uprated brakes (such as the yozzasport kit if it would fit) I have decided against the brakes as I only had new discs and pads 3-6 months ago.

What would you lot do next? Budget of £200ish

Any pics?

How about some simple colour coding, etc? Can really tidy the car up.

Silvervisions?

will be getting silvervisions when i think of ordering them and theres money in my account, lol. Colour coding I have considered, but for the bumpers, side strips and handles i've been quoted in excess of £300 evrywhere i go.

Told ya mate go to him who did mine and greggs does a super job

Could always get a De-Cat?

Lose the bak two doors! lol...Inlet work ain't really worth it mate! Not on a 1.6 8v! I'd personally invest it.

i have a decat that isnt on at the moment, it was AWESOME, but, it was far too loud (dont get me wrong i loved it, but as i use the car for work, i'm an estate agent, it was just too loud) I might look into getting it silenced, idea on cost for this?

BenR seemed to think i'd get a reasonable gain ffrom the inlet work, and as for loosing the two rear doors, i like them, plus, in around 18months time, once cosmetics are finsished and insurance comes down, i'll have me a 172 engined 5 door sleeper

am getting a price for the colour coding later today, any more opinions/ideas?

Cup spoiler?

Mk2 172 Rear Bumper, I *think* it will fit of 5 doors ok.

 

[theduck]

only just bought the 172 spoiler, and am happy with that. rather than getting 172 bumper will just get mine colour coded, i have looked into them before and yes they do fit.

172 front bumper...should be a bit deeper, plus the ph1 172 alloys

 

[Has]

I still have my colour coded rear bumper u can have

All ready and packaged to go

Will go well with ur new rear lights !

i'd love to, but i would need new wings aswell, am happy with the alloys for now, will get some white pro race2's evnetually. Has, maybe tempted by you rear bumper as i could always get just the front bumper done so that it matches for now... pm me the price...

 

[Ali]

Agree with you...colour code it...Don't make it look like a ph2!

[thedoc]

colour coding gets my vote

 

[theduck]

just had a very stange quote... as above Has offered me his rear bumper and i'm tempted, so have just had a quote for just the front bumper moulding of £50. The same guy proceeded to quote me £300 if i had handles, sidestrips, bootlock and front bumper moulding :s rather confused by that. Just tried calling him back for an explanation but he didnt answer

 

[theduck]

any one else?
