wooo i got me an air filter



and here is a picture of my wheels...before i cleaned them up

revive my thread i began with a nice update!
I have started work on my boot, and have 90% completed my grille. I just need to make sure its level and paint it.
The boot is being smoothed although im trying to get hold of one.
im gunna start to strip the interior as i dont want carpet in the back, id rather have the racing look.
I ripped out the ash tray to replace it with a alluminium plate for swtiches which will be connected to a solenoid for the boot which i need to desing a mounting frame to pop the boot open.

pics coming soon!

I reckon you should black out some of the spokes, maybe even all of the spokes and leave only the rim and the hub on show in silver... will look effective.

Think about some rear arch mods, you just need some bulging out by 1/4" or something otherwise they're gonna rub. alternatively cut back the arches and bond on some mk2 arches, will look mint.

none of the wheels rub due to work done already and we were thinking of painting them anthracite.
I would like some arches but cant find any anywhere

a deffinate mod....FF stickers :P white inside ones for rear windows

finally got some pics today! whilst weather was good.
Opinions please oh and there is no rust at the moment as i got rid of that after photos.

great one...
but, needs some lowring

Good,

But indeed needs lowering..And, the grill should be meshed..

Nice work mate looks like its getting there eh. Deffo needs lowering, mesh the grille, get some clear front indicators and side repeaters then a nice tail pipe on the back and sorted!!!
Maybe some white/red mark 2 turbo tail lights on the back, though they are quite hard to get hold of these days.
What else you got planned for it???

well i am getting mesh soon, I was planning on lowering the uno about 30-35mm.
I wouldnt mind some clear lenses. Im trying to get hold of a headunit and maybe a motorised screen which ive seen in local car shop.
I'd like a 3" round backbox and colour coded bumpers.
Im gunna start to finish of the boot which i need to make up some brackets for my solenoids for boot. and doors.
Its hard to get all this as im only just turned 16 and no job - no money
atm i only have 140+ to spend!

cheers

Hey,
Im really starting to make progress with lots of parts i think, but one thing atleast i have sitting waiting to be fitted is my new water pump, anyone ever replaced one before that can give me tips and instructions on replacing my existing one.
I have a splx 10" subwoofer ready to go in, and i have a 3 1/2 inch exhaust - slightly too large but it was going cheap.
Thanks
gav

I hate shops! I went all the way to mk to buy a mutant head unit from asda, i got there and saw them and was thinking great! and there were some little dvd boxes which usually show that they are in stock. I got to the service desk to find they have none! I mean their 'stock selection' was so poor its like a small cabinet, for the size of shop and produts they offer i expected alot better.
Well today i got a 3.5" back box which i've been trying to fit today, ive had to cut and weld piping to fit the shape. Nearly have it fully fitted. Did some bodywork getting rid of rust and painting.

i also fitted a few small things like a fire extinguisher
