Muffin Posted August 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Well It's been a while and i am still learning to drive... Still.. But none the less i thought i would post some better quality pics up even though i still have really done anything to the car yet Anyways here's a few pics. Some better quality pics of the badges and doorcards etc Next thing i'm planning to do is pass my test to be honest then go from there. There is so many things i want to do but i don't think i will be able to for the first year but i don't think i will be able too due to insurance :[ but we will see As usual comments etc are welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muffin Posted April 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 So it has been ages since i have updated this! I am still unfortunately learning how to drive as i don't get many opportunities for driving lessons with work etc! I should be all up and ready soon then all the good stuff will happen! Took a few pictures a week ago and also finished sticker bombing inside, Sounds stupid i know but it throws the colour of the car off real well. Anyway Pics : With My old mans motor.And the compulsary Snow picture! My basic plans soon after i pass will be to get Jom Coilies for the time being and see about suspension set up from there. Fit My wheels (Steffan Rs 8j front and 9j rear!) and get arch work done for the wheels and interior will also be on the line. Other than that that is all for now so feel free to leave any feedback etc! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffin Posted May 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 Well it has been a while again! Cleaned my car today and started polishing and claying etc, amazing the amount of difference it makes and how smooth it makes the paint feel! So here's a few pics as per Clean!So i have also sticker bombed my door cards, front & rear and part way through my roof lining which i will upload very soon! Sounds like a lot but in person it really does look good and goes well with the brightness of the carAny feedback is appreciated! Cheers.

Koop Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Something about fantasia green does suit sticker bombing rather well I have to admit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffin Posted May 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Haha cheers koop! the roof lining look the ace, well happy with the turn out, will upload pictures soon! My theory test is tomorrow so fingers crossed i pass that and then it certainly is not long until i will be up and running on the road and the real modifications will commence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffin Posted May 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 More updates! I got carried away this weekend and saw some coilovers for sale just down the road from me... i could not resist temptation and seeing as i am learning still i can't fit them but... Sorted for a few months time! I have also nearly finished my head lining which is sticker bombed all with individual stickers. The front and rear door cards are sticker bombed along with the roof pillars and now the roof lining thanks to many hours labour and the missus! Ordered more stickers which arrived today so it should be finished tomorrow but as it stands now : Looks the dogs in my opinion , i think on other cars it would be too much but with this colour car it really does look wicked and is not too much. And finally a decent picture of my wheels that i have for around a year now! Not long now and they can go on. Literally can not wait, it is like being a kid at christmas time again! 9J Rears! I must be mad Cheers for reading, as per any comments are appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coley220 Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 seems we are on the same boat here, ive got my pratical soon and then ill be on the road.dreading insurance too as im already lowered on coilovers and alloys and buckets. really not looking forward to my final quote :/ loving your stickerbomb. i almost done the same but instead im probably going to go for a orange carbon wrap in some places.lupo is looking well smart mate. look forward to seeing the finished product!

Muffin Posted May 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 We certainly are! I'm dreading it too but it's what i have commited to doing so it is a must! As promised pics of the roof Still need to fit passenger mirror^^Finally that is it! Pictures do not do it justice, looks awesome, i am well chuffed. Just need some seats, may go for mk4 Recaro's or something like that. Let me know what you all think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muffin Posted August 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 Right I decided whilst i was bored that i wanted to trial fit my wheels... So me and a mate got onto it and this is what follows:Then i got one of my mates to photoshop one for me as if it were loweredProper chuffed with how it looks. Can't wait to get them fitted with my coilovers! They will sit really nice in my opinion, at the minute the poke at the rear by around 1/2" But when i get the arches rolled and a bit of negative camber they should be cool. Also fitted a Lupo Gti light switch and carbon wrapped my b pillars and vents but nothing special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffin Posted August 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Changed the front disc and pads on the front this weekend, some nice new Mintex ones on there, my car now successfully stops now! Was wondering if anyone could help, does anyone else have an issue with the rubber channel where the window seats as mine must be very dry and is causing the drivers side window to really struggle to go up, sometimes it gives up and goes back down!

Muffin Posted May 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 Time for an update. Fitted the Steffans (9j rear so super wide) and ran them for a few weeks ...After a few weeks I decided to sell them as it was just to much, They did look good but it drove terrible with 5 degrees of camber. So Since I have bought a set of BBS RM's which did look like this... They are now being powder coated purple and should hopefully be ready soon! I have also since bought 2" lips for the rear to make the wheels 8J. So the car has been lowered a fair bit more since and currently sits like this awaiting it's new wheelsAwaiting on a chassis notch and then lower the front a tad more once my wheels are done and I will finally be somewhere! Any feedback appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karl_Mac_ Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Someones going to have to explain this obsession with purple wheels to me. I've seen a few sets on a few different cars any they all look utterly gash. They looked pretty sweet in red to honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
