Finally did a project thread, most of you know where ive been with this car so i have summarised it and will add to this thread as i go.

So a year ago i bought this

nice and bland, but tremendous on the fuel.

Straight away did egr delete

and elephant mod

fitted 110bhp injectors - She is the 90bhp ambiente

Then the cupra splitter and the black grille

cheap wheels of gumtree

then some nice coilies

painted wheels black and added some flyeyes

bought a vrs bumper and spoiler - primed and sprayed

fitted these

added yet another splitter

vrs tail pipe and tinted lights

1.8t pancake pipe triple the size of the standard one, she is getting remapped so needed her to breathe more easily

thats about it so far - the bofore and after is quite different i think

before:

after:

Now Dropped as far as it can go

Good work!

I've still to fit some other bits and bobs - did you want an upper IC pipe?

I would love one, but I can't afford anything just now. I'll be in touch though.

About time you started a project thread :-) you've done a cracking job so far :-)

yay loftys Build!

subscribed!

I know I know, after seeing the legends that already have these threads, and my never having achieved anything worthy of it up to this point I never felt worthy of one. Nice to know I have done enough to at least get the attention of some, I have noticed a few times people in the street double take which can be gratifying

Looks great,been through so many different looks in such a short time

Aye I get bored easy, and sometimes I dont like something once I've done it so change again. The other reason is, I hate spending money, so i tend to swap up, or haggle furiously. All the work I have done to date including the clutch and solid flywheel, and remap, and all cosmetic changes - including all the 5 sets of wheels, 400 quid oh and that's also rebuilding all of the ball joints bushes suspension and brake pipes.

That is some pretty awesome haggling right there!

Today, i put in front spacers and flared arches and this has cut rubbing right down

But also did this, gloss black vinyl b-pillars, quite like this, think ill keep them

black mirrors, black mirrors!

black mirrors, black mirrors!

Yes that will be a win!

Ok then, i shall do that at the weekend and give it some piccage on ma thread.

Black mirrors by popular demand

then the roof! :p

But I'd need to pay......................I can spray it??!! That'd be cheaper.

Spray would work, or plastidip. If it doesn't go right peel it off and try again

plastidips a good idea but would prob be the same sorta money to wrap it.

Charlie, im trying to find you a pic of the bits you want too

Cheers Gee

its lookin good mate. Tinted rear windows and wind deflectors next. :

If you want to make your car look lower you should park it next to my new one.

Plastidip would only be 30 quid, vinyl plus fitting would be much more.

Cheers Jonesy

Trundlenut, I take it you have a 4x4?

Trundlenut, I take it you have a 4x4?

Yep, either that or it's just been scared by a mouse.

Plastidip would only be 30 quid, vinyl plus fitting would be much more.

platidip it is then! thought that stuff was £15 odd quid a can?

Yeah so let's get technical, 2 cans for a roof, 2x 15 is???

Haha the hatch roof area ain't big dude.
