What's next on your list then

I love it.

 

[EL]

Wow looks superb, great call on the White for th back of the seats!!

 

[Mike R]

Thanks guys ..

Ive been thinking green calipers, but its something id do properly and take them off and have them powdercoated or something... I use this car daily so its very hard to do things like that as i need it in use.. I dont even get a whole weekend off as i work all day saturdays ..

Next on the list is to sort a few bits of bodywork i arent happy with.. which is going to result in having tha car stripped and resprayed i reckon.. Hopefully thatll be done by the beginning of August ready for a few shows i want to do later in the year... It may come off the road in the winter too im not sure yet.. But Theres no doubt more things i will do as i cant leave anything alone ..

Hahaha I should get a sticker made saying minty fresh to go up my windscreen! ..

I may take it off the road this winter, all depends on timing, work, and sorting another car.. Then I shall get air-ride as ive always wanted it!

You leaving the seat badges silver

I may go down the smoothed boot route in a couple of weeks when it hopefully goes to bodyshop, and the front one i will keep silver for now.. Think it may look tacky green.. failing that ill do it black ..

 

[drka-drka]

Iv got a sticker that looks like a air freshner that says 'minty fresh- euro scent' or sumthing like that.lol

Thats what iv done with mine this winter...air ride baby!!!! you know its the way

 

[Mike R]

Lol im gonna see what i can have made ..

Yeh its just so unpractical as it is for me where i have to go.. The back bolts that hold my wishbones in are absolutley buggered.. there the first part to scrape over bumps and cambered **** country roads.. sumps fine as ive had it rasied

 

[Murdered LCR]

Bags are for fags man up and lower it on coilovers

 

[drka-drka]

Yeah iv had all mine lowered on coilovers and its okay but you cant get a decent distance down and after i heard all the cars scrapping coming away from DC it just sounded ****.

After speaking to luke its gota be done.

 

[Mike R]

i know.. But its ruining the car.. hit the sideskirt the other day and scuffed the side just at the front slightly, that wouldnt have happened with air-ride.. If it was and old school dub thats part of the fun... More expensive cars like ours deserve to be looked after more lol

 

[Murdered LCR]

Luke is Megga dear go have air my mate has it on his mk4 golf

 

[drka-drka]

I looked around this at DC, looked smert...cage and air confuses me but thats just me.

I know its not cheapest but id rather get it done right and i really like the installs he does and hardlines!

 

[Mike R]

Yeh ive picked up a Havair flyer at UD this year and been thinking bout it ever since.. Its just wether i can justify the money doing it all.. I plan to sell up the end of next year.. I get bored easy.

 

[drka-drka]

The Havair prices are pretty good tbh, i picked up a flyer to but its another 2 and half house ontop of plush from me so thats kinda topped it. also i think the finnish of lukes installs are higher quality IMO

It is alot of money if your planning on getting rid i suppose, or you can just drive super slow over every bump.lol
