i cant get it slammed as it wont make it over half the speed bumps in Worthing, i was scared to go over 1 yesterday even in 4x4 height lol

gonna go for 40/40 drop

just slam it if you cant got over the speed bumps just drive a different way its the price you pay for rolling in a low rider LoL

or you could get some air bags

love how this is turning out, top work and keep it up!

wow i have never seen that red interior before.

I had a BMW e36 318is coupe for my first car that i bought off one of my older brothers but as i am only 16 insurance was crazy money so i sold up and bought myself a vw polo 1.4 16v insted for when i turn 17 in August.

Heres what mine looked like when i had finished. (my brother had it modified chavy before so i went all original)

Just remove the headlight and pop off all the clips. to seperate the square lense. Then with a stanley blade just cut the seal on the circle inners of the light and then remove all the excess adhesive rubber. then put back together. think thats what u were asking anyways. thats how i done mine when i had it. :D

Kuszpit :)

Looks good, you should do the badge in the centre of the steering wheel black and white too!

yeh delensing is not too hard iv not got round to doing it yet as need to replace the actual lens as stone chipped, but as kuszpit said, unscrew from car obv, then use a flat head to prize up the clips holding the lens and black bit together then pull apart, HIDs are plug n play so easy, cut the silicone stuff around the lens n clean it up and put back together, I've also got my hid ballasts behind the bumper, what i did is use the bolt that holds the fog light down, just undo one bolt put the ballast holder in place then bolt it down with the fog.

that looks nice n clean kuszpit

an renegade I've got the black n white badge just need to fit.

as I'm giving this to my brother when he passes his gonna carry on the mods, hopefully in the right direction lol

but i have recently had speaker builds made for the front footwell and a pillar tweeters sounds amazing :)

Yeah i just done everything, pritty easy job tbh and really looks soo much better

hid ballasts are hidden behind the bumper and with no OBC check errors

running lights meanin the indicators on with the headlights? if so...

my clifford alarm has intelli start (remote start) and when you start the car with the fob the lights stay on for safety till you press the brakes. also i can have them up but disconnected the wiring for them my indicator has two bulbs one is indicator an other is side repeater bulb that stays on with headlights might plug them back in

Looking good fella, Look sweet when its low 8-)
