Piers Posted May 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 There totally wrong there buddy,You can get the end of the jet, which is about £12 iirc. And the cap for the outside is about £5. its a bit fiddly to replace the jet though. you need strong fingers and a small screwdriver.Yeah.... Chargers......... More hassle than its worth. Unless you really want a good challenge?Car looks good, Glad you've taken it from dan??Yours is rather cool with the charger iv resorted to some good old super glue for the cover dude...Yeah i get that feeling about dan from what iv been told on here. seemed to be a genuine guy when i got the car. shame he advertised that it was on coilovers when its actually on cheap springs Got a few more bits and bobs to do for the appearance.. want to try a bra but dont want to fork out for one if i dont like it. need to find someone with one i can try. She needs a few bits of paint here and there. dint taking out of the boot and the usual door marks... Then i can try some serious buffing action and get a mirror look like your latest pics taken you long to do the conversion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piers Posted November 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 Few recent pics of the car...To be done: Clean up FK coilovers (courtesy of Shaun) ready to be fitted next year after the shocking english weather!Sell Sub to replace all audio with high quality components such as JL audio or Bostons.... (want a loud quality sound) Next Year's plans:Paint!front end is desperate! get dints/scratched and scuffs removed...Change roof from gloss to Carbon Fibre (3M)Induction kit (BMC - anyone got one cheap?? )Refurb wheels...Then see how i feel maybe some wild colours to be added like lime green/orange.....?Feedback always welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piers Posted December 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 (edited) Soiv never been on photoshop and didnt understand how it worked. saw it was free to download on my phone so didnt imagine it would be too difficult. had a quick go (10 minutes) and came up with this.just put my name down for some sweet door cards with genesis amps and JL components. (will upload pics when iv got them) then the Carbon roof and mirrors should come into play. also when the weather stops being so s*** i will put the coilovers on and play with the height. i need to be realistic tho because theres alot of speed bumps around my area and my drive is a nightmare! almost touches at the moment as you can see below!then im not really sure what to do to it. dont want to do anything drastic but fancy a change. possibly the interior? wrap a few bits in carbon fibre... dno Edited December 15, 2010 by Piers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piers Posted December 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 (edited) DEVASTATED!Somehow. I seem to be missing some paint from the front bumper. I suspect that iv caught a kerb turning around, A stone has hit it and shattered the area (cold weather)... or someone has stolen it!? Can i just replace the bottom section of the bumber (anyone got one?!)Piers Edited December 29, 2010 by Piers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 I went with him to go look at it before he bought it, he did a photoshoot of mine and decided then he wanted one! He's been after getting it painted for ages, be happy when he finally does. Have you seen his bonnet lately? He's done some Banksy-esque work on it! Looks pretty smart actually.

Pete Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 He's always needing to swap his tyres over tho! It looks cool but a bit much for me, all his local mates are in the same mindset tho! Get it as low as possible, then when it starts sparking and taking chunks out of the tarmac lower it some more!
