The octy has had a bit of a makeover this week. Has gone from this:

Will get some more & better pics tomorrow after a good clean. If the weather is good enough.

bumper looks awesome buddy but wheels look wrong imo spiders look much better

Yeah im happy with the bumper mate, not a bad result for my first attempt at meshing a bumper.

I do like the spiders but wanted something a bit different. I think a 5 spoke alloy looks good on the octy.

I quite like the new rims I've seen them on lots of cars and they look sporty imo.

They would look Nice in Mettalic Black :)

Ps the spiders look tidy too mind

new wheels look sweet mate. maybe some more lows up front and some center caps will compliment them more. Spiders are ok but boring imo. (tho for a OEM wheels there lush)

Wide mouth FTW. have you got a FMIC?

Thanks matt. Goin to keep them silver for the time being. Think it gives it a standard but modified look.

It will be goin lower soon gee. Just depends if i can get it on and off my new drive without takin my sump off.

It hasnt got a fmic yet but im saving for 1.

Its got a turbo revs uprated smic at the minute and ready for stage 2 remap, but its money i dont have at the minute

Get a shallow sump, think they're under 80 quid

Sent from my Galaxy S2 not a Crapple!

Bumper looks good mate. :)

I like the wheels, but I think a darker colour would suit better. Each to their own. Nice to see something different.

Like the car buddy, as I am biased with same wide mouth. I do tend to like the original smaller side bumper grills as they have shape to them or the milotec ones as they sit more forward in the bumper area. your mesh is right at the back of the bumper. I did like your air filter hole in the std gril look very good. Funny as I was going to go back from milotec side grills to std grills, but not sure. Also think the wheels would be better in black, I really like the look of your black spiders with red. Sorry not a critism in any way just my thoughts.

I did bonnet grill as well

Bumper looks good, but I am biased (mine was red) :)

Wheels look wrong IMO (the spiders looked much better), although 5 spokes suit the octy I think they have to be the right style if you get what I mean. But at the end of the day it's your car dude and if you like them that's all that matters. ;)

Thanks for the comments fellas. I did like the spiders but i just got bored and wanted a change. And something different.

All looks good. I like those 5 spokes on it more than Spiders.

Thirded! Sorry...

Jonesy,

i would like to know how did you get the fog lights on the bumper grill in the first pic posted ? If its a milotec add on, was it the complete bumper or just the grill you added.

Its not a fig light mate, its a cold air feed for my induction kit.
