heya guys im new here :D - bodp553 - 07-03-2013

well ive had this for a while now and finally decided to make a post on my pug and what has been done so far i am also looking for more ideas etc it is a 1.4 genoa that i originally purchased with a buggered gear box the hunt for the gearbox was[attachment=5548] hard but eventually found a perfect one from a local breakers for 75 quid result Smile     this is how she looked before she was molested and beaten by the previous owner before needing much loved tlc Smile

Welcome to the forum Smile Good luck with the new gearbox though, hopefully it lasts! 1.4 boxes are known to be made of cheese!

RE: heya guys im new here :D - bodp553 - 18-04-2013

Been a while since I've done anything to my ph1 so decided to do some bits today I finished wiring in my ph3 rear lights and are now fully functional happy days Smile also decided to do some filling of dents and some smoothing in the next week or so I will be sourcing myself some ph3 bumpers and starting on them I will also start prepping for the paintwork                
   
Thinking of de wipering the boot and reffiting the spoiler and finishing tints once paint job is done Smile

RE: heya guys im new here :D - Piggy - 18-04-2013

big work going on there...you painting that all yourself??

Q...I seen a few dehandle the rear doors...er, how do you get in??

RE: heya guys im new here :D - bodp553 - 18-04-2013

Also thinking of removing my Arial and smoothing it off as my scummy neighbour with a meridian tried nicking my nice shiny one and failed and broke it I hpe karma bites the bitch on her fat ads
Ahhh yes I'm painting it all myself and de handling rear doors and will soon be installing door poppers and alarm etc also gotta build a new box for the boot install Smile
    didn't like the look of the old p1 rear lights and were sprayed way to dark by previous owner Sad

Hello Big Grin

RE: heya guys im new here :D - Rich306 - 18-04-2013

*waits for the expected; My battery has died and i can't get in the car* Thread.

Wink

RE: heya guys im new here :D - bodp553 - 18-04-2013

haha dead battery no way im not like most divvies who dont run a backup slave cable tucked away and not delocking or smoothing front door handles also running dual battery to save embarrassment due to audio setup also fitting fast plugs like u find on forklifts etc.

RE: heya guys im new here :D - Pompey306mark - 18-04-2013

I hope you have used more than just filler on those holes and re door handles.

I would suggest buying my front and rear door, as I will be breaking my car soon.

RE: heya guys im new here :D - bodp553 - 18-04-2013

also a good strong electrical cable and doorstop comes in handy lol

RE: heya guys im new here :D - Pompey306mark - 18-04-2013

Ps it's easy to get into these if you did delock it. Just unscrew the door handle and pull it out.

RE: heya guys im new here :D - bodp553 - 18-04-2013

hey mark is it monq?

RE: heya guys im new here :D - Pompey306mark - 18-04-2013

No it's wrapped but since you are re painting the car anyway why are you worried.

At least mine have been done professional and welded up. Yours will crack and fall out.

RE: heya guys im new here :D - bodp553 - 18-04-2013

ive been quoted 55 quid for a couple of litres of the sigma blue on my exact colour code monq and the geezer there is spot on with the paint mixes so il be buying the paint and other materials soon and will be using my mates unit for the spraying etc

RE: heya guys im new here :D - Pompey306mark - 18-04-2013

I am not worried about your painting skills I am talking about the filling.

You will paint it, it will crack and fall out.

RE: heya guys im new here :D - bodp553 - 18-04-2013

looks tidy Smile

RE: heya guys im new here :D - Pompey306mark - 18-04-2013

It is, you can buy the doors if you like will save you a lot of hassle and disappointment.

RE: heya guys im new here :D - Eeyore - 18-04-2013

good luck painting it all. I dont like removing the rear handles but best of luck anyway! Cant beleive your neighbour tried to pinch stuff. An aerial of all things!

RE: heya guys im new here :D - bodp553 - 18-04-2013

know much on plasti-dipping? my mate has equipment to do it heard doing rims is a bit shite though apparently got a breakers yard thats less than 5 mins away from mine but if i get any problems i can easily correct them before spraying etc
hmmmm how much for the doors ?

RE: heya guys im new here :D - Pompey306mark - 18-04-2013

I am plastidipping my new shell, and two mates cars in the next couple of months.

£50 a door.

RE: heya guys im new here :D - bodp553 - 18-04-2013

i hate the fat bitch i found meridian blue paint traces on my car dents appearing from nowhere all down to jealousy i even know that she paid 800 quid plus a jailbroken iphone for her meridian and that the original keeper only paid 250 for it and talk about shitting on ones doorstep .....
i know my mate plasti dipped his e300 and looks pretty good although one of his mates who owns a shop has the machine for doing wheels also equipment but being stingy on money got half the paint for his car and had to start over when he ran out halfway through doing his porsche
