Welcome to the forum Interesting going for a smoothed look but keeping the square bumpers!

Stick up a thread for the car (and also the bike!) when you get a chance

Thanks the bikes sold a few weeks back, fancied doing something different than smoothed ph2/3 bumpers

[Matt]

welcome! have you been spraying that yourself then?

I have been painting it myself aswell as all the other bodywork, havent fnished painting it yet as thats only a base coat and its too cold to finish it just yet and got a bit more smoothing to do! Just fitted new wheels aswell which i'll put a pick up soon

Did you paint it with rattle cans by any chance

Primer, spray gun and base coat was rattle can, just bought the 6ltrs of vauxhall arden blue paint to finish but that will be sprayed with gun not can!

i live in monkmoor, but my car is at my nans just waiting for a nice day to put my new engine in (206 gti)

[puglove]

206 gti eh? 134bhp or the 180 bhp one?

[m477 oov]

134p but only coz its £200 off a mate with ecu, loom and box and cant afford a 180 at the mo, will pull better than my 1.6 8v anyway

[puglove]

Well if you currently have a 1.6 its going to take more than a day to put it in. Your going to need an XU sub frame engine mont gear linkage etc etc

[Joe205]

Nice! I'm breaking a 306 so just ask if you want any bits pal

[Scott]

That's interesting about the 206 engine. I've been waiting to see someone out one in a 306,though it it's a bit of a shame it's not the (not quite) 180bhp version

very true, wanted the 180 206 gti engine but for a 80,000miles 134 gti engine thats £200 its not badly priced!!! and theres always a bit of possible tuning!!
