Mafyou Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 Finally got round to making a thread, meaning to do this for ages!!!Got the car back in March, had low mileage (64,000) good for 10 year old car I think. FSH. Anyway pictures This is how I got it.Took off the side strips cos one was peeling, then took the Lupo badge off and now want to put it back on haha. Also took the rear wiper off.Euro plates with surrounds on too.Then coilovers Two sets of universal spacers on the front! lol the chunky tyres were rubbing against the coilovers. I was running about with the rear springs in and standard suspension at front for a week as i was waiting on the bolts for spacers haha. Had pretty interesting handling.How it is now..Coilovers not down that low because i had to raise it to get the camber re-alligned.Gave the arches a good clean and started undersealing it. I will try get some better pics up later on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mafyou Posted April 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Cheers, Its going to be a while til i can afford get some tyres though Standard bolts are not long enough, already have 8 stainless longer bolts that i got for the spacers, so il get more of them!The centre caps are in bad condition, they are quit hard to find for type 1's so if i cant find them i'l just smooth them off and spray them and get some decals for them.Matthew.
