Haha, will need to get peters video downloaded somehow! Your car up next for the Antilag? :P

 

Lol , not just yet

 

Gotta break her in first lol

 

Don't say "break" to me please

 

Some updates.

I never post side on pictures of my car before due to the ugly *** alloys.

I finally got a better looking set, STI alloys with 4 nearly new Eagle F1 Tyres.

The gold doesn't seem to be to everyones taste but I like them:









Before 'halfords specials'




After:










I think some lowering springs and 10mm spacers would set it off nicely.


Also fitted some of my Rallytech bolt kit:

Before:




After:








C&C Welcome.

Matt.

 

Looks very nice much better with the sti alloys on nowt wrong with gold pal I'm going from coilovers to an rb320 setup myself this Saturday, you thought bout a rad cooling panel to compliment them bolts? Only bout £20 off silver-sonic on here make all the difference

 

Yeah looks a million times better, those other ones sucked bad! Can't believe you're removing the coilovers lol.

Yeah I had a nice carbon one on my last STI - picture below:




Though the panel is down the bottom of my list for now.

Matt.

 

To be honest bro I'm only ever doing bout 7 miles a month on normal roads with potholes in it so it'll be much softer I know exactly what your saying coilovers definetley have there advantages but on normal roads it's shattering

 

I had the same induction kit on my old bug aswell looked mint what you got plans for now?

 

Yeah I can understand why you're changing, Britans roads are pretty **** .

The good old K&N typhoon induction kit :P . I do miss the noise it makes though can't justify one as it would give me no gain.

Hopefully get the prosport gauges in soon then that'll maybe do for a while. My plan is to change for an STI in the not so distant future so don't want to plow a lot of money into this, hence most of my 'removable mods'

 

My Hella Horns arrived today:











More pictures tomorrow

Matt.

 

Loving the the blue in the yellow bro they must have been a pretty penny? But a must have as the Oem are ****e I it, I had red ones on my last bug but I reckon I'm gna follow suit after I've seen them in yours NOW GET THEM ON WITH PLENTY OF PICS BRO

 

Do they make you, ahem, hellava horny?

Groan.

 

Lol, you're 'Hella' funny haha. Pun central :P

 

OK so I fitted the Hella Horns.

To be honest I'm not 100% sure on the colour. Feedback much appreciated.

Matt

 

I think they look fine

 

As said , think they suit your colour scheme better than red would have ��

 

Thanks

 

Looking subtly nice bro defo better than red bro good job
If it don't grow on you I'll take'em lol!! Good colour choice goes well and kinda blends in

 

Thanks man! Hahaha, no, I think they're starting to grow on me!

 

I ended up painting the Zunsport grilles Mat Black.

I didn't have the ***** to paint them properly so used plasti dip. Very very happy with how they look. Once the plasti dip starts to wear ill do them properly.













C&C welcome as always

Matt.

 

Looking mint bro nowt wrong with plastidip and you can get a lacquer for it if you want it shiny as I've got a can of each to do my aps intake wen we get some decent weather

 

Thanks man!

I wouldn't be too sure on having it gloss, I think its nicer Mat / Satin. Each to their own though

Going to paint the insides of the lights next, Satin Black.

Think ill have to wait until Saturday to give it a go though.

Scott from scoobyspares has also sent me a parcel, should hopefully get it fitted at the weekend

 

Update time.

Ok so on Saturday I decided I was going to attempt painting the insides of my lights. I have already Detango'd a few sets so I wasn't worried about pulling them apart, though I was worried about painting the insides as I always seem to **** it up.

I wasn't keen on trying to scratch the inside lenses up so the paint would stick so I ended up getting adhesion promoter from halfords. Think it was about £7.99. And lastly some satin black paint.

Light removed:



Lenses after a couple of coats of satin black:








And then getting sealed and fitted:













C&C welcome as always.

Matt.

 

Looking good matt, im in the same position as you, i want to de tango and make the lights black but i havnt got the ***** to do it as its an expensive mistake

 

Thanks! Ha, I thought I would just give it a go and see how I got on. They turned out really, really well, couldn't be happier

 

Looking sick bro you gna attempt a spec c roof scoop next you certainly got the talent and titanium ***** for it!!

 

Looks good mate!

 

Hahahaha! Hella no. Would never attempt anything like that, if you mess that up there's no going back for sure lol.

 

Thanks man
