Jamesstrutt Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 (edited) Hi guys, just introducing myself as i am new here. After looking through everyone else's i thought id finally post some pics. Anyway i have got myself a 1.4s in good condition in storm grey with exceptionally low mileage, just 17000, 04 plate with a couple of minor marks. For now i have just made some minor mods to start with. such as de badged rear, stubby aerial and pressed plates. Hopefully going to get some coilovers in a few months and then go from there. After a wash and wax i decided to blitz the interior. Stripped back my rusty drums and painted them black. Apologies for the super dirty arch liners they are next on my list. Also painted my rusty steels. Edited June 21, 2014 by Jamesstrutt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesstrutt Posted March 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Yea, I believe they are quite rare on the lupo scene.*in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarosa Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Just thought, this would look sweet with the black interior, but I'm now a fan of the grey, grey is less common, and yeah very rare, I know of another two sets but that's it!

Jamesstrutt Posted June 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 It's been ages since i last posted so here are some updates....A few weeks ago i managed to get some coilovers for the car to get it sitting nice, but never got around to fitting them. So after a while i managed to get some free time to get them on the car. still got loads of plans for the car but funding is putting them back a little. Here are some photos as it currently stands.

Jamesstrutt Posted June 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) So after many hours of playing with small adjustments to get it sitting just right i am almost there. I just need to lower the front a bit more to balance it out as after taking the adjusters out the back sits real nice and low . Just need to get of the shitty steel wheels and find some nice wheels. Also as you can tell i had a massive cleaning session on the loop, getting it waxed to a near mirror finish also just waiting on getting my front bumper resprayed as someone managed to reverse into me whilst i was parked up sorry about the photo spamage haha Edited June 20, 2014 by Jamesstrutt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarosa Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 Mmmm shiny, possibly remove the orange indicators from the front and replace with chrome ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
