this car is amazing - is the new owner a member ?

yes he is, its still close by so i can keep an eye on it ha ha, it looks very nice an he has done a few subtle changes to make it his own,

i recently bought a new car too

(pics are borrowed but its exactly the same)

Very nice mate. Any plans for this car or you keeping it as it is?

Well that was 40 mins well spent lol LCR was stunning mate. Is nice to find a car thats 'handcrafted' if you know what i mean. You get a better sense of achievement when you see something you have done yourself take shape.

On a slight off topic, did you get round to making the guide for fitting the door handle LEDs? this looks like a nice touch and as I can get the bits I need from work its also a handy free mod lol

mmmm my next car also.

 

[RickC]

thanks all, i have a few subtle mods planned but nothing major, i like to just be able to get in and drive and know its going to be able to get over speedbumps etc lol, but never really had major problems with the leon. i never did a guide for the handles i just ran a wire from the interior light to the handle then carefully drilled into the handle (they are hollow) and fed the wire through it,

Finally managed to read through most of this thread - have to say that this is my fave LCR on here - the paint job really set it off. How you getting on with your new car? The audi treating you well. And ignore my ignorance, but what is it? S4 - I know I've seen them about, but never really nailed down the model number

 

[Dyscontinued]

RS4, the best looking Audi IMO, as good as the photos are they still don't do it justice. Love the flaired wheel arches.

 

[RickC]

hi all, thanks for the comments, ive not done a guide, i think i wrote how i did it earlier on in this thread, i just drilled a hole in the indide of the handle so the led faced the car diagonally, the hole was at the back of the handle, then fed the wires in the hollow part, inside the door, to the interior light, they also faded when the lock button was pressed which looked pretty cool,

as for my recent motor ive vinyl wrapped the silver trim, had the wheels powdercoated gloss black, and sprayed the mirrors, done alot of lighting upgrades too. with this car ill be focusingon performance handling and driveability, im getting far old now you see

build thread on edition if anyone is interested.

cheers

 

[EL]

Looking mean. Glad to see your still I'm the tuning scene mate

 

[davidopresto94]

Im based in Lincoln as well, i remember when i first saw this car i couldnt stop staring ive seen less of it recently though, are you still driving it?

EDIT: must of missed the bit where you said you'd sold it........ AWKWARD!

 

[RickC]

its got differnt wheels red interior , its won a few trophies and hes tidied up alot of loose ends, but hes put bloody air ride on it, so its now
