calumcostello1 Posted July 29, 2013 Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 Hi, i'm new and have had my car about 5 months, it's a silver 1.4s and when i bought it it had only done just over 21,000 miles and had a fsh, the car wasn't in great condition and had a nasty dent in the drivers rear quarter.Here it is when i got it home(only have the one picture)First thing i did was paint the badges and lower it on JOM coilovers which left it looking like this for a while.I then bought some Borbet A reps which never made it onto the car along with a set of banded steels. I still have the banded steels, they're 7x13 and 8x13, if anyone is interested in them please PM me.(you can see the terrible repair job that someone done to it)My pedal box then snapped completely and i had the fun job of replacing it . I was surprised that it snapped on such low mileage.After i fixed the pedal box i booked it into the body shop to have the rear quarter repaired as well as both bumpers colour coded and a new indicator panel.=, leaving the car looking like this That isn't me in the pictures by the way.Me and my brother left my friend a nice surprise after work Saturday i got some new wheels and chopped the rear springs for more lows and this is how it currently looks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lupodeano Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Can the front ones be cut ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calumcostello1 Posted August 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 i am not sure if cutting the front springs is a good idea and i am pretty curtain the car will need a lot of work for it to be that low.BenStanden- I am selling the banded steels if you are interested?
