    True, all good choices. But, all have been done a lot of times. That all I get told, fit BBS or Porsche rims lol.

    It is aimed at younger readers. We do a lot of cars with crazy fitments, camber, arch work etc which is all good for those that don't drive their cars as a daily. It's not suppose to set the world on fire, just show how easy it is to build a good car. So many younger people are getting put off doing cars due to insurance, petrol costs etc. We've just done a build that was one of the most creative we've ever done, but we try and mix it up. We do loads of articles on PCD, offset etc

    Right, so have a couple of wheels to choose from. Decided to get both in from Rare Rims. Both are a 15x7, like I said before want the fitment to be easy and not loads of hassle so steered clear of the 15x8. First one is a Rota Kyusha and the second is a Rota OSR. What do you think?

    The rear has been resprayed, the light in the last pic makes it look worse than it is. Goes into the bodyshop this week for a tidy up though. Not pallning on the car being show car quality, just a bit neater

    Yesterday made a bit of a start on a few bits on the Lupo. First thing was getting rid of the Lupo badge and getting rid of the rear wiper and sticking in a 25mm bung. Amazing the difference such a small mod does. Before: After: And then next job was getting rid of the bump strips. Used thin wire to get them off, tried dental floss but kept snapping lol. FIrst one came off great. And after that they were all complete bastids!!! lol So took a good few hours of heating up with a hair dryer, PVC and glue remover and lots of sore findger and busted store cards ha. My missus getting stuck in, she was a lot better at it than me! And ta da... The doors look better in the photo than real life. Its still pretty visible were the strips were as seems one door has repainted at some point. But they don't look too bad and hopefully the bodyshop can have a look at it. Also tried some wheels on, will post pics soon.

    I love my music and cars, so the appeal is big to me. Every show I've been to I've heard good and bad things and quite often things get blown out of all proportions. We run quite a few shows here and some of the stuff we read about incidents is quite amazing at times lol.

    Cheers for the advice, gone for some RS6 style seats. Fingers crossed they will fit!

    I've got a couple of wheels to try out over the weekend as well

    Anyone on here going to Run to the sun? It's at the end of May. Never been as usually working at Mod Nats but working at RTTS this year, can't wait! Will be taking the Lupo.

    That's really good to know, thinking poss RS6 style seats. I imagined most seats will fit, as its surprisingly roomy in the Lupo. I think I've seen some Sparco subframe and decided I want recliners with sliders. I'm 6'2 and amazed how much head space I have on the standard seats lol.
  15. glenda@fastcar
    Yeah it is. It's booked into Bristol Auto Repairs for next week. Plans are: Repaint rear bumper fully green and sort out the crack Get the dent out of passenger side wing Get the dents out the roof Sort out bonnet and roof lacquer peels Paint and tidy up the front bumper Also going to get a few interior bits painted green, well prob just the gauge cover.

  17. glenda@fastcar

  18. glenda@fastcar
    Cars booked into the bodyshop for next week woo hoo!

    Seems there's quite a bit of room in Lupo then, was amazed to find out it's wider than my DC2 lol.
  20. glenda@fastcar
    Also, why does that house in the first picture have such a long window?
  21. glenda@fastcar
    ^^ What that guy said about what that guy also said. Get coilovers, worth waiting and saving up.
  22. glenda@fastcar
    We want pics, we want pics (chants).
  23. glenda@fastcar
    Right, so I'm looking at replacing the current Lupo seats with some new ones, most likely some recliners something like a Recaro Speed. Is there any problems I will face, like width issues or problems with fitting? Also, who are good for subframes? Thanks in advance for any help and any pictures people might be able to post (ahem cough cough lol)
  24. glenda@fastcar
