Bean's Mk4 Beeza- breaking to standard...

[Bean]

Spotted on my local Seat forecourt on the way to work back in April, within 3 days she was paid for in full with my previous car taken in part exchange, had to wait 2 days to pick her up though which meant some very carefull driving in my old car

So, anyway I started the week with this:

a couple of members may remember this....

And, I ended the week with this:

SHOPPING LIST:

Milltek Exhaust System
Pd160 Intake
Green Cotton Panel Filter
Remap
Armster Arm rest for customisation
W8 Light
Glove Box Light

 

[Bean]

Got her home and parked her in her very own bay,

So first thing to do was remove the crappy dealership stickers from the windows and debadge....

Before-ish (had already removed stickers):

After:

Sat for a couple of days like that before i decided to do the calipers, then sat like that for a further week until the weather decided to play ball

Before:

During:

After (with a conveniently placed spoke):

Cheers, can't say I've ever seen your motor out and about either, where abouts in Portsmouth are you???

A map is definately on the cards, had my old car mapped

It's just a matter of when, have a warranty to worry about

That looks really tidy mate - looking forward to seeing what you have planned. Who do you usually use for the audio work? If you haven't made up your mind then give Inti a shout at www.dragoncaraudio.co.uk.

He's a very good friend of mine and will sort you out. Tell him I put you onto him.

Thanks, as for ICE its not so much audio that i'm having done at the moment...

I usually use Stirling I.C.E as a friend of mine works there, that and they do lights etc on Hampshire Constabularies motor vehicles (unmarked cars and the like) so they do a good job.

 

[Bean]

Well... what can I say... It's been a while, so I think it's time for an update...

New mods include.. Tinted windows-Wind deflectors-cc'd Shark fin antenna- cc'd Side strips- anthracite alloys- cc'd and anthracite badges.

There's a few imperfections with the job done by the body shop so bits and pieces will be redone when I can book the car in, the alloys are going from a Matte effect anthracite (un-laquered lots of hardener used in base coat) to a Gloss effect anthracite (laquered) partially because there'll be easier to clean, and also because of better protection for the winter months ahead.

another quick update to follow

your car is looking rather nice.
im sure somebody in my local area owns your old car as theres one going about with the exact same mods only with black wheels and blue rim tapes. will have to check for extra doors next time i see it.

Thanks mate, I do try ha ha It's not looking quite so nice at the moment. Bleeding council are resurfacing the road outside my house and the car is covered in dust and tar etc
Waiting for them to finish before I detail the ride to bring it back to it's former glory.

As for the old car, most of the modifications were removed prior to sale...
