  10. hey there well i thought since i have had the car now for a few month and done a few things to it now i best start a thread about it. well on december the first i nought a 1ltr arosa from a small business in newcastle with the intention of keeping it standard but after looking around for a while i realized that that wasnt going to work for me........so the modding began.....but on a budget ofcourse as im still at college and funds arnt great lol so this is the standard car i bought 3month ago now.... i no it says 1195 in the window but i didnt pay that for it lol the guy had put the wrong board in the window so i paid £400 for with 78,000 mile on the clock and a full seat service history. in febuary when i decided i was going to mod it i had a image in mind of how i wanted it(rat look) an this is what i am sticking to so first off i had to get rid of the enormous tracter steering wheel so i picked up a bargain brand new thorn racing 300mm wheel with a momo boss for £30 and got it fitted up.......much better next was sound system as it was dreadfull so i installed my old sendia headunit.. then i installed a pair of JBL 1200w subs and a JBL 1000amp i had in my garage... next was the door speakers after a mate offered me a full Vibe SLK Compenent Set up for £60 brand new...also did the dash at the time the kit included: -2 x 345w components for the doors -2 x 300w components for the dash -2 x 140w tweeters for the doors -2 x 100w tweeters for the dash -4 x active crossovers for the lot will get pic of this later now sounds much better lol next inline was the paint work as the car came with its usual rust around the rear arches and a few spots on the driver door sill..so sticking with my image i went and sourced the paint and got the boot lid sprayed up... yes the car is going to be painted totally in primer grey....with a few added decals.....unfortunatly the boot is all i have been able to get done so far as since i started it on the 25th of feb its done nothing but rain and when it hasnt rained ive either been stuck in college or work....but dont worry it will all be finished of in grey soon..... whilst i havent been able to get the paint done my misses has been cracking on with the retrim......it isnt perfect but its a rat car on a budget so i dont care lol..... parcel shelf...... rear quater cards....... updates will be posted as an wen i have them..... comments all welcome..... aaron
