Nah they're used to it, its where i do all my spraying lol

on my 2 hour friday commute yesterday it was fine, couldnt even tell that it was any lower or any different from the D2's tbh....and no rubbing either

 

love the look of it dude... don't the wheels catch the arches on full lock??

Wouldn't hydro's or somethin be better and abit more practical???

 

I like it mate

Cage would look cool but not sure how safe cages are without harnesses and helmets.

Not keen on the one fog light and no grille. I do like the JDM oil cooler hanging out front look - I think its cool

Blue RA seats I'd keep too - awesome seat and very rare (had them in my WRC RA and UK tubby)

 

really like the look but i also dont like 1 fog light and no grill. sort those two thing out and it will look badass. I also think u need a smooth bonnet (no scoop)

 

Just got back from Fast Show at pod, was a good day but was on a stand in the middle of no where and with no one that i knew lol. Saw loads of other scoobies there today

Just uploading pics now, but heres one from the show and one from the journey back!

 

Think my front driveshaft is nackered so reading up about converting it to RWD

Anyone with any info that will help me, please tell!

 

Looked good on Sunday, hung around for a bit but couldn't spot you.

Indeed

 

Looks much better without the yellow and the twin fogs Rear needs to go down another inch though

sweet cheers bud!

Was planning on smoothing the bumper out today but rain has postponed it

Also dont think that ive got time to finish it, and get it sprayed before photoshoot Will get splitter done however

 

Pics of fitting the cage







More pics from show

 

Good work fella keep it up

 

What roll cage is that?
maybe a daft question but does the rear seats still fit in place with the cage in?

 

Its a Cusco / Safety 21 cage, did take a picture of the info specification sticker but cant find it and painted over it now lol.

Started smoothing the fog covers into the bumper today, got a lot done and should be finished over the weekend ready for front bumper to be resprayed on monday

 

Done a little bit more done on the bumper today, not a great deal as i couldnt be bothered, and only had an hour after uni before i had to go to work.
Also picked up a free bumper from the bodyshop, said i could have it so i can drive around whilst mine is being sprayed! So called into halfrauds, £7 can of matt black and heres the result!


Going to my Renault Meganne splitter onto the bottom so ill still be scraping though
And heres where smoothing has got too so far:


Still looks a right mess, but will be finished and sprayed for next wednesday
Also started painting STI brake calipers, think you can see them in one of those pics somewhere

 

sweet ride fella....................................... ......but get a hair cut would you,looks worse than my old dog

 

 

How have you fitted the cage? Welds? Bolts?

Lose the stickers and that gear stick on the inside and it would look a lot better IMO

 

looking good mate, keep up the good work,

 

bumper is gonna be cool

 

Been working on this bloody bumper almost non stop over last 3 days! In between working weekends aswell! Should have been dropped off at paint shop this morning but still not ready for paint.....got 3 days untill photoshoot so going to be finishing it off tonight hopefullly and then spray it tommorow evening and wednesday ready for thursday. As long as we can get a good colour match with the paint it will turn out perfect

Anyone recomend a good paint supplier??

 

dulux

 

I've always found Lechler paint to be good quality.

Not keen on the bumper, sorry.

 

Updates, bumper is now ready for paint, so going to make a start on that tonight as long as the rain holds off!

Pics from over the weekend













Splitter is fairly battered after about a month on the car lol



Multi story car park actually flat spotted it lol!



Brakes ready to go on



US plate on

 

Where dya get the plate from Tom? I likeee

Brakes will make a huge difference, not only in stopping power but in looks too

I'll reserve full judgement on the bumper until its painted

 

Yeah cant wait to get the brakes on, getting them fitted tommorow so cant afford any **** ups lol. Get the car back about 3-4 then spend rest of the evening spraying the bumper untill it gets too dark lol.

Sold both the BRIDE's now aswell, but got my eye on a pair of red BRIDE low max's cheaper than what i sold the black ones for, and they're red, and they will be more comfy lol
