Just don't cover it in monster stickers....if your going with black and green

I wouldn't ever have one of them stickers on my car no way couldn't pay me to put one on doubt i will have any stickers on it tbh was thinking of having "Because new cars are s**t" on the back window but not sure if it would get me some unwanted attention

That's awesome sticker to have!

Cut the arches in my 106. Looks so much better than the flat arches.

Before..




After...




Maan I miss that car.

[Chris_90]

That's porn right there!! How hard was it to do archs?? Are those 15inch alloys? How much was you lowered by? What brakes are they? Sorry about questions looks ace!

Was an easy job really just took a while making it all out. Used tiger seal and some small self tapping screws to stick um on. Wheels are lasers and brakes are from a 306 XSi 266mm IIRC.

For 106 thats really smart!

Looks around 60mm at a guess?

[306carter]

I used 70mm Saxo springs and then cut one full coil off them about 80ish at the frontand 90mm at the rear.

WOW! lol thats some serious lows but the gap on the arch from standard think they need it theres like 1 foot gap lol

[Chris_90]

Any way couldnt wait to get alloys on so got paint this morning gave them a quick blow over nothing great but better than they were and put them on car





Needs some lows bad! the front arch gap is insane! rear will be same when i cut them up

[ozonehostile]

i quite like it on the vtr shoes

needs color coding. good call with the xsi stuff though

Will be getting colour coded when i find some one to paint the xsi bumpers quite like the vtr alloys need to get some lions stickers for the middle

[306carter]

Had VTR alloys on mine. . . . .



Got some rallye arches in my garage, just waiting for a clean 106 D to come up and make a RallieD.

[Chris_90]

Looks great that does, looks better with the lasers tho i think, Rallye rep was my next idea but just carnt justfi the price on a re-spray when the car was only cheap.

Anyway picked up some tiger seal so on Wednesday (my day off) might get on with fitting the arches see what weather is like. Going round to get get some quotes on getting bumpers sprayed as well next week

[MarkTD]

Looking good mate

[Chris_90]

Looking good mate

Thanks mate all the bits coming thick and fast going to look at some 50mm lowering springs tomorrow

[Chris_90]

Bit of an update

Been round body shops see how much it would be to paint bumpers and they said £160 so decided how hard can it be I've painted wheels before carnt be that hard to do bumpers, so spent about £50 on paint and prep stuff, rear bumper is now painted front will be painted tomorrow not a bodyshop quality job but not to bad at all (pics coming when I'm on pc)

Bits I got coming/collecting

Fully synthetic oil
Oil filter
New wishbone (ball joint fooked on drivers side)
Powerflex rear engine mount
50mm apex lowering springs
Full pugsport s/s exhaust system 2inch I believe will see tomorrow when I go look.

So will have plenty to get on with when bits come, carnt wait to see/hear the pugsport on a derv no idea if it will be any good or not but I love the look of them that's why I wanted it,

Pics coming soon

[Sambarker]

Pug sport petrol exhaust on a nad? Would be better with straight through surely?

No idea tbh, but still want back pressure because it's straight derv or am I wrong? Tbh not fussed about power just wanted pugsport for looks

[puglove]

[Chris_90]

If only mate, if i could do that i would right away! would love to see what one of these with a high boosted xud in it would be rapid! with mega mpg's. I can only dream think its to much work for me to take on the xud conversion

[Dum-Dum]
