As the title says, just post pics of colour schemes on your loops, give the dubbers some inspiration, got a black loop and not sure what colours to put with it (wheels, seatbelts etc.) GO!!
-
Just read through this whole thread, yes, all 43 pages! Man you and your loop are an inspiration! Top job on all of those awards, looking forward to seeing more in the future! TD.

As said 15"s with 195/45/r15, so not too small haha, so theres no need at all to fiddle about with the speedo? My mates got a fiesta and he reckons putting 15's on his car makes him read 5mph too low, (so he'd do 35 in a 30 zone).

My little dub.

Well thats cleared that up, thanks very much for the reply!

Hi all, I'm a complete newbie when it comes to tyres, I'm currently running 175/65/r13 (standard on most lupo's) and I want to put 15" alloys on with a 195/45/r15 tyre. Question is, will I need to correct my speedo? If so, does anyone know anywhere that would do it? Many thanks people! TD
-
You'd be very lucky to get a decent model for that sort of money, models for £900 could require work. All the best to you though mate. TD.

Hello everyone, Has anybody got any pictures of a lupo sitting on 60mm springs? And which ones are best to get? I've decided I don't want to go too low, but I really want to see what a 60mm drop looks like. Thanks in advance. TD.
-
yeah man, wheels, engine, chop it all off!
-
PERFECT! thanks joshuaar, appreciate it

Does anyone know where I can get black rivets? I haven't seen any on the market so far, but I'm desperate for a set of black ones.

Just in case, I plan on lowering my Lupo at the same time I put my alloys on, so it only for clearance. Thank you for the reply.

I had the same exact same problem on both my door panels. Some snapped, some were glued, some were even missing. The positioning of the clips doesn't matter, I had black and white ones and I put them in random places and they fit perfectly fine, no more door panel problems. As for the part numbers I have no idea, they're cheap enough to pick up on Ebay, sorry I can't be of more help.

Hi everyone. Need a little advice with tires, I'm working on buying my first set of alloys but i'm not sure what size alloys and tires would be best. I don't want to have to roll my arches but i intend on going a bit low, i was thinking something like 15x7/7.5 with 195/45/15 tires, but i want a small amount of stretch. can anyone recommend a good combination? thanks very much all.
-
Whats up everyone, I've decided on the wheels that I want, I'm going for a set of silver Axe EX8's 15" x 8". My problem though is tyre's. I don't know the first thing about stretching so i wanted to know what size tyre would go well with a nice amount of stretch, I'm thinking 195/45/15. Has anyone got any pics of something simlar? Like 1j thinner than the wheels? Any help is appreciated! Thanks everyone!
-
if it's what you wanna do, then do it. make it unique and add your own personal look to it, don't worry about what anyone else thinks
-
Thanks for that Pete, may or may not need to stretch mine now, i'll have to wait until it's lowered
-
hahaha thanks man, appreciate it i'm assuming the 'j' represents inches, is that right?
-
i'll have to read more about JOM's, the roads where i live are a mess and theres a pothole around every corner so it could be a bumpy ride! does anyone know much about tyre stretching? *noob question* does the wheel have to be wider than the tyre to be able to stretch it?
-
thanks for the thread Joe, and yeah i've heard some pretty rough stuff about JOM coilovers, been advised to stay well away from them haha
-
i've seen rw's on arosa'a and lupo's, they look pretty good, it's either those or rs splits thats not bad for a full set of coilies, i've heard that most people recommend AP coilovers for lupo's because theyre cheap but work well, anybody running AP's?
-
I know there are cheap sets of coilovers out there, for around £350 so i've been looking at those for a while, and BBS RS are my all time favorite alloys but theyre a bit out of my price range, so i've been looking at some replica's

Hi everyone, bought myself a black 1.4 Lupo S for my first car, I'm in to the stance and slammed cars but could do with some advice. what mods would you recommend to get it looking good and sitting pretty?
