MCBailey Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 (edited) Good day all!So I've been on the forum secretly lurking for about a year and recently made an account and decided now it's about time I started a thread.My lupo is a 1.4sHis numberplate ends in HUG hence his name. He's a bit of a minter and only had 24k on the clock when I bought him last may and is now on 27k so we're not doing too bad.Anyway, as it is soon his birthday I decided I would start some modifications!First up he had some block headrests from a 6n2 transplanted from the local scrappy about a month ago.And the end of this week he was recently treated to some Cambridge lights. This is how he is looking at the minute...Got some coilovers and then after that I have a delicious pair of wheels to be fitted.Hopefully get them on by the end of the week!

MCBailey Posted March 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 (edited) Yeah they're a truly beautiful wheel.Was debating powdercoating white but after the trial fitment I decided they're just such a lovely colour I'd save the money from a repaint and do something else with it Edited March 7, 2011 by MCBailey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
