How they look after
 
Not to sure yet lol. Dont know if i shoukd tint the back windows or not. I might jus save for a few months get some uber sexy wheels Lm's or summat then get the whole car blown over in the winter ready for next year.

No doubt i will find bits and bobs along the way to spend my monies on all ideas welcome tho
 
get the windows tinted!! i am aswell...thinking of doing it myself, even though everyone tells me its hard lol....paint your interior aswell ;)
 
Its that cheap now it ent worth the hassle i got qouted £120 on me old car and that was for the fronts aswell.
I ent really a fan of painted bits inside the car. was finking of changing to yellow and black leather inside the car to instead of black and red but thats where it starts gettin pricey. Ive only spent £600 on the car so far :cartman:
 
120 for the whole car aint bad, but if the police do pull you over to remove it your stuffed lol,
yeh yellow and black would be sweet, or even all black....
wow youve done alot with that 600!! has your whole car been resprayed, or just parts?
 
Thats good because i'm only getting my back ones done anyway :D

have you thought about getting your rear wheels spaced, or cant you because its lowered?
 
Actually my friend you have hit the nail on the head i can put that on my list. I am too low at the moment tho as the tyres are tucked up into the arches. Poke as been done to death so went for summat a little different i will look in to how much i will have to higher her to space the wheels out rears will need about 20mm and fronts 10 i reckon
 
always happy to help :p
what size are your wheels and tyres?
I think if your rolling on 195/45/r16 then you should be able to have it about a 40mm drop and be able to get spacers in easily....you maybe also be able to do it with 205/40/r17 tyres, but i may be wrong :think:

or you could always keep it a the same height and reshape the arches :whistle: lol

You can have spacers on the rear with a bigger drop than 40mm.... my car was lowered about 70-80mm at the rear with my old FK's on it and never had issues with the rears when the spacers were fitted.

And as for the Brembo sticker comment..... I have some "SEAT" caliper stickers which I could part with :)



What you doing with the bumper and the plate then? Seeing as you have the plate in the window and still got the recess in the bumper??? Thought you would have smoothed the recess when you had to sprayed.
 
Hey mate! :) Loving the car, looks awesome!! Yellow - nuts man! How much did it, (or if you paid for it all to be done) - could you give me a rough estimate of how much it would cost me to get facelifted bumpers sprayed? I want those next after alloys for my '96 CLS. Thanks! :)
