Just to add the oem system is pants.

This adds nice puch but means my hockey bag and the little lads pram will still fit so really practical

 

Just had a read through, top job as always mate.
Might pop up soon i want a top roof spoiler and a roof vent but not attempting them myself!

 

Lol there fun that's for sure haha

Fitted a de res centre section today, car sounds just right

 

not a job for me lol

bet it does sound good mines got turbo back toyosport but lots of silencers on it

 

Did a mod I wanted to do for a while today.

Roof lining out.



Then took the bits out, quick scotch up along with plastic adhesion promoter resulted in this





And fitted





Jake

 

looks better all black in there

 

Hoping the postman brings my next mod tomorrow. I've dug my dremel out in anticipation.

 

How on earth did you get the roof lining out? Is it flexible enough to get it out through the doors or did you have to get the windscreen out?

 

I'd planned to do the headlining and pillars at somepoint, thought I'd actually considered retrimming the head lining - the spray looks damn good mind.

Good Job!

 

Seats right back in sex position, then it comes out diagonally through the passenger door with a bit of rotation

I use water based so it soaks in then a fine dust of solvent to seal it. On the hard plastics I used plastic adhesion promoter and solvent black matted down.

 

Well played, I had to meet up with a guy to sell him a pair of Civic Type R bumpers and used a similar maneuver to get them in and out of the Scoob!

Stupid question, how do the hard plastic surrounds come off which shroud the seatbelts?

 

Cap off the seatbelt then undo the bolt, the pillar caps then pull off its just on clips

 

Easy

Keep up the good work Jake, some nice ideas to steal from this thread

 

Might be paying you to black out the interior on mine!!!

 

Another small mod today.



Jake

 

Have you cut the fog lamp out?

 

Yeah.

I won a n/s/r lamp on eBay for £10. That was my donor.

I'm off work this week but got a call to say a big package had turned up, so I nipped in and got cracking.

The rear lens is glued on. So you can't warm the lamp up to split it.

You need to carefully dremel round the back edge, split the lamp and exchange the clipped in red for clear lamp surround.

Then you simply join the parts back together. I used out two part plastic glue, but people just use sealer.

Was one of my scarier mods in terms of costly mistakes if it went wrong lol.

 

Looks a lot better mate, good do for a tenner! Just a red bulb then now? Have you tinted them? they look a bit darker maybe just the photo,I've put some blobeye clusters in mine for a bit of a change

 

No just the cluster. Prob my crap iPhone that can't adjust to a white car lol

 

Twin reverse lights wired up.

Also adjusted the rear for more camber as I was getting a slight bit of tyre rub.

 

thinking of a change















which would you choooooossseeeee??

 

Candy red looks smart

 

Did these on my old golf





jake

 

None of them Red is the only 1 that "works" imo

 

hehe







jake

 

You work fast lol. Looks good mate

 

i dunno about that, ruined it

 

not for me either, id have them black and change the rear lights to blob versions.

 

Not a fan either Jake for general use, there too glary. If they had been track only wheels then great!

I think white cars look better with subtle dark colours IMHO, gun metal, black, perhaps.

However top work on the rapid work

 

i'm with tubs on this
