[quote name=one litre wonder ' date='21 October 2009 - 10:37 PM' timestamp='1256164651' post='729273] if its a mk2 bumper there are 4 screws in each arch liner, i think theres about 4 across the top, and then 1 behind each lower side grill. the pull the sides out from the clips at the side and it should just come off with a slight tug

id certainly take a leaf out of my book. i got mine lowered 60mm with just springs. bit mistake. my shocks are absolutely destroyed after running them for a few months and the car makes a horrible noise when ya turn on them, dont do it haha get some coilovers., gunna replace my springs with coilovers at christmas n everything shud be sorted. ive had a look on good old ebay and you can get a set from germany for £230 which id trust in coz theyve got a massive market for the lupos n arosas over there. =) x

unless you seriously want a diesel id have a look at the petrol equivilant. get some decent lupos for that sorta money. n dare i say this, id sooner have one than a arosa. just for the name lol unless you seriously want a diesel id have a look at the petrol equivilant. get some decent lupos for that sorta money. n dare i say this, id sooner have one than a arosa. just for the name lol

Hi there. does anyone know how to take the grrey plastic bumpers of seat arosa? as far as i can see theres 2 screws in the front n bout 8 on the side n bottom. im guessing you undo them obvs. but is there any tricky clips i should be aware of? ive seen a fair few members who look like theyve done the same and painted them. just wondered if anyone could help us out. cheers =) x

lol i hardly ever look out the back of my car anyway. if theres anything in the way n it gets hit. its thier fault for not looking. im feeling all black everything on my car. stealth lol painting my bumpers this weekend n some nice coilovers in the mix soon. bosh x

good news. i found a place in hull that will do them for £110. might need to be put on the backburner tho coz im in desperate need of a coilover kit after the lowering springs i put on my car have managed to destroy the full suspension system. bad times. thanks anyway =) x

im from hell, i mean hull. were famous for a awful bridge n having loads of people on the dole. im so proud

that sounds good to me. is there a website or anyone i can contact about getting it done. there are a few nationwide places that do them but not looking to spend the earth. whow as that from =) x

Hey everyone its me again. was wondering if anyone has done this window tint film business before. ive put mine on n its not the best so i wanna get it done properly. was wondering if anyones got it done properly by a pro and how much it costs. the film itself is cheap as chips but getting it on perfect is so hard. if you could take the seals out the windows then wrap it the job wud be a piece of cake but i dont wanna do that. anyone give us a qoute if they got it done. cheers x

i replaced my rear lights on my arosa with some lexus style ones off a lupo n they fit fine. only problem is the light wiring harness needs to be changed and messed about with a bit. the labeling on mine left alot to be desired. but at night my car looks pretty sweet now. easy job to replace aswell. just a single allen screw and it should just slide out =) x

thanks for that i thought it would involve summet liek that. only if i take the aeriel off n put a blank one on arent i gunna end up with no radio signal =S !!! your car does look proper sweet btw. im taking the front n rear bumpers off n spraying them gloss black as im guessing youve done. it l look miles better. starting to get into a bit of money now aswell so gunna try n get some power out of mine. cheers x

HI everyone. i was wondering how to take the aeriel off my arosa as i want to put a new BMW style one on. I cant even unscrew the ****ty aeriel on it as it just keeps turning on the end of the thread. there must be a way of taking the entire aeriel unit off so it can be replaced with a new one. anyone done this job before n give me a few pointers. many thanks

Hi everyone. was wondering if anyone with the knowledge can give us a hand. i want to increase the performance of my arosa engine but not mess about with the fuel consumption too much. i was thinking bout a engine re-map, induction kit, oil change, performance spark plugs. cant think of much else tho. any help would be much appreciated. a rough guide of cost ud help aswell coz i aint gunna go overkill. still ant finished styling it yet. cheers

thanks for shining a light on this. coz i was really confused. i must have the early 1.4s arosa. if i had bout £500 more i reckon id of gone for a 16v but insurance proper trying to rape first car drivers

thanks alot. haha think the first thing i posted got some bad views. from someone who dint even ahve a lupo or arosa =S !!! i love my car. its my first one but i like everything about it. so fun to drive even if it int that fast. will be when i stick a induction kit on it. well maybe. it l just sound good if not. ill post a pic of it when i get everything done new tints new bmw m3 aeriel K+N induction kit platinum spark plugs chrome dash surrounds =) gunna look tasty. thanks everyone =)

lol no i was saying that just because the car says it does 99mph top speed dunt mean it does it. might do more like mine does. i cant see how ya cars gunna go slower through putting alloys and lowering it anyway. more surface area for the tires to put the power down and less wind resistance through lowering it haha. thats theoretical thinking.

i'd start out by doing what ive done. lower it and stick some big alloys on it. improves the handling miles more and looks pretty sweet. tint it. top speeds vary from lupos to arosas coz as a general rule of thumb lupos have more power. think the official figures are 115 for a lupo sport. not alot more than standard but the 0-60 time is much faster. might be able to get more tho. ive had 110 out mine n its only meant to go 99. modifications probably make a difference.

Hi everyone heres my first car. a lovely lowered seat arosa. done a few modifications on it but not finished yet. getting window tints, new aeriel n chrome dash surrounds soon to give it a well pro look. tell us what you think and feel free to ask any questions =)

my car newly lowered seat arosa 1.4s 8v pretty crap picture but you get the idea. new tints and aeriel soon and some chrome dash surrounds =)
