what colour did you use on the wheels ?? looks great (Y)

I used Rover gunmetal grey i got from halfords

Well, i was going to buy some coilovers this month, but after a call to the insurance i found out that it will be too much to declare them so i will have to wait till the summer when i have more no claims.

anyway, i wanted to do something to the car over the easter break and my wheels needed a good refurb due to me not being able to judge where the curb is properly lol

i sanded them down almost to the metal at some points the marks were so bad

Then the masking up

and the final product. I used Rover gunmetal grey if anyone is interested

Surly the time it took you to mask up the wing and the discs u could have taken them off to paint and less wast lol

I did think about that but i haven't really got the space or spare wheels to do that

Got some 6n2 rear lights last week and i fitted them today. couldnt get them to fit perfectly flush but they look much better than the old ones

Here is a before picture

A little bit of a modification to make them more flush

and the final product

my license plates had got damp inside them some how, so i decided to get some pressed plates and i fitted them today

heres what the old plates looked like

and here are the new ones

here is the front plate fitted, i forgot to get a picture of the rear

and i also gave the car a wash

I have also ordered a 4-2-1 stainless steel manifold which is coming tomorrow and i have got a few more modifications coming next month after i have renewed my car insurance including coilovers, new exhaust system, new wheels and if i can afford it, a BMC CDA air filter

where did you get the Pressed plates ?

thanks, i have the same thing with the rust haha. the plates were from ebay from a seller called paulroad123. they were about £26 for two and they are 100% legal and are very good quality

got a picture of my rear plate today

also my 4-2-1 manifold came today, just got to buy the rest of the exhaust before i can fit it

looks sweet as a nut!! love that colour!

Same plates as me :) love it

Been bored today so i made a video of going for a drive in my car down some nice roads near me.

I have started to make a sub box for the boot of my car today, haven't finished it yet but i will put up what i have currently done and update when i have done more.

I am using a fiberglass kit that i got from halfords if anyone wanted to know

all masked up and ready to start

first layer of fiberglass done, just waiting for it to set

didnt get a chance to work on the sub box today so i have been driving around with my car stinking of fiberglass resin, but i have just brought a BMC CDA which will be coming this week hopefully.

Walked passed my car earlier and got a nice picture of my car

Done a bit more on the sub box today, just waiting for the speakers, amp and black material to cover the box with to turn up and then i can finish it

got a few deliveries yesterday

So today i have finished the speaker box, let me know what you think.

(ignore the cheap speaker and amp

Just had to pay £1600 for my Car insurance At least i can now get on with modifying my car now that the mods are declared

My BMC CDA has arrived today, i will have a go at fitting it tomorrow if i get time

i have one question though, what is the other smaller filter that comes with it (warm air feed?) and how do i connect it?

nice car mate how hard was it to make the sub box thinking of doing it my self what size mdf did you use ??

oh and just to add nice toes lool

haha cheers, the box is quite easy to do, i think i could have made it fit a bit better if i spent longer on it though. The fiberglass is easy to use, just mask up the area and then put a couple of layers on. The box itself is made out of 12mm thick mdf if i remember right. it took two tries to get the wood to fit right so make sure you get enough wood just incase :p

them plates look good pal

i will prolly invest in some of these as they look legit

boot build looks nice and hidden

Thanks, the plates are legal and very good quality, i would definitely recomend them.

I was bored today so i thought i would put the badged grill back on, but i sprayed the vw and 16v badges black. Also did a bit of stickerbombing on the dash today but i ran out of stickers

The hose for the bmc has been ordered and should be here wednesday so i will fit it then

Edited 11 June, 201115 yr by rozza92

did you get that bmc fitted ok ?

Just waiting for the pipes that i ordered to arrive and then i am going to fit it, but i have found a guide on how to fit it now though

I fitted the BMC today, the hose that i brought wasn't a perfect fit so i might have to order a different one but it will do for now. i have also ordered more stickers to stickerbomb the rest of the dash :)
