Just wanting to show my felly off

It's a 1999 1.3 mpi 54 hp wagon which i bought from a neighbour for a £1! pretty much a sound car with a

few little issues and 165k on the clock, full service history though

The paint is pretty bad on it in places, so i just bought a spray can on ebay matching the paint code and just

sprayed it ghetto style, the bonnets mainly the worst along with the nearside below the windows.

its much better than the white that it was going but it wont win no competitions!

 

Mods:

Direnza Lowering springs 35mm with a coil cut of the front

new o.e monroe shocks all round

rear anti-roll bar (was already there!)

front arb (i added that)

genuine bbs g60 wheels 15x6 et 45, just trying to get some centre caps for them! nightmare

and some car audio stuff as well if you're interested

inPhase xtc 501 200w 13cm component speakers with the tweeters in the doors

some old pioneer 3 way 6x9 speakers in the boot which i made run flush with the boot

alpine swr 12-d2 dual 2 ohm subwoofer running at 1 ohm to make 1000w RMS in a custom 1.71 cu ft gross enclosure

kenwood kdc 300uv 3 preout head unit

and a juice 2.4 farad capacitor to keep the power constant 

 

the sound in my car is amazing, just need to get some carpet to finish off the sub enclosure. (i've put a port in it since the picture)

plans for it are:

bigger disk upgrade

redo all brake pipe and fit braided hoses because they're in v bad condition, been advisories for about 2/3 years!

repair rear arches. starting to have a bit of rot so i want to sort them before they go really bad

timing chain

and eventually i'd love to put the 1.4 polo in but that'll have to wait for a long time yet!

incase you want to hear what the sub is like...

What bulbs for the headlights you got?

Original glass lenses?

i tried hid's once and they were awful, but at the time i put led white sidelights in to match them. i've left the led sidelights in and put the normal bulbs back in atm.

its more photogenic with the sidelights in!

I am sure they were awful for incoming drivers too.

Looks really clean from the pictures. Like the wheels

thanks, yeah the majority of it is alright, but the bonnet was really bad but i've seen a lot worse paint fade on red cars!

Nice job!i! is the steering wheel boss a bolt straight on job? any mk3 golf boss?

yes mate the boss has exactly the same splines as the felicia. only issue is indicator self cancelling. depending on what boss you buy depends on how they've made it. mine had 2 plastic prongs but they did not poke out enough to cancel. i bent a bit of mains wire to poke out enough to make it work!
