Bought this for my first car, like the look of it but want some ideas of what i can do to make it look better!

Wanna go lower but having problems with the wheels being too wide and it scrubbing, any solutions?

Any opinions appreciated!

Cheers

Remove the silly stickers, remove the yellow from the spotlamps and narrower wheels. That's what I would do.

and the roof rack is making it look like the trotters van

more isnt always best..sometimes it just looks silly

sort the front badge out too, loose the wheels , horrible, colour dont match red paint work at all either. with your tyres your probably talking 50 profile, 155 width tyres ? lose the roof rack and stickers, yup and yellow spots not good. who ever had this car was murdering it lol

Yeah agree with these fellas,

Pretty much revert back to standard and lower it,

Remove badges and trim, touch up the paint work and make it super clean job done.

Thanks for all your input!

Stickers were already in the process of being removed but are awful to get off as they are the paper ones!

Wheels are up for swaps aswell, mate has a set of BBS Mahles up for sale which are 6j so could go lower but need to sell mine first to get funds!

Also when i got it it has blue wing mirrors and rear badges!

Cheers guys

wheels would look good if fitted with narrower and lower profile tyres, and painted silver. lose a few stickers, and a little lowereing. Looks like it might be a tidy motor (unless the stickers and arches are hiding muchos rottos)

more pics!

Yeah I agree with above just donate the roof rack to me

mars red! the best colour

Got some new wheels!

Will look much better when its lowered!

Stickers are now all removed, clear headlights are on, roof rack has came off, got myself a set 6j of bbs mahles with a polished lip, badge has been took off and black one has replaced it!

Lowering springs being ordered after Xmas!

Pics up soon!

Trying to get pics up but struggling with the attachment size limit!

Will try get some up ASAP!

thats because you are boring.. lol

New wheels!

I liked the stickers and yellow and front badge.

But good call on the wheels. Didn't sit properly...

What profile are those tires?? just warning you, i have my breadvan, dropped it 60-60 on 185/60/14 on p-slot wheels, and suffered epic scrubbing!

Now running 165/60/14, ever so slightly stretched onto the wheel and there is no scrubbing now, just be careful when you drop it matey :)

At the moment it's on 175/50/13s so hopefully should be alright!

Where's the best place to get some lowering springs for it?

Cheers

mine came from germany, ordered them off ebay, can tell they're cheap ones but they do the job and if I'm honest, it drives better, but i think PhilJ, if i remember right, sells them on here :)

This is the kit i ordered, and for the price, i think it is a very nice ride! until the road gets a bit bumpy, the rear suspension is dropable in steps, i've had mine running 60-20

60-40 and currently its at 60-60, i went this option because its a lot cheaper than the coilovers if I'm honest.

Cheers for that mate!

Not sure whether to go 40 or 60 on the front as I have the plastic arches?

You got a picture of yours and how it sits?

I quite enjoy a good yellow foglamp now and again. The wheels were shit but other than that it was pretty cool. Do whatever makes you happy, follow your dreams, don't let anyone tell you that your stickers are shit, BELIEVE IN YOURSELF MAAAAAN.

:ninja:

Cheers dude!

Yeah I didn't mind them but had to change them for mot anyway as one had water in!

I like the look of some stickers but they were put on by the previous owner and they were the crap paper ones so were all faded!!
