Re: Bens grande - 'SMOG'

what do you mean fake dotz?..
there genuine not fake.
yeah i know i was going to redo the trim in red and get black alloys with the red trim but i decided against it.
pics will be up after college.
 
Re: Bens grande - 'SMOG'

in that dilemma now with my bravo, bloody expensive the caps are, do think they would suit it, plus as a bonus they remove the none colour coded ones :D
 
Re: Bens grande - 'SMOG'

Haha yeah they are a little expensive for what they are. Do think they would suit my car nicely tho. We'll see how my wallet feels :p
 
Re: Bens grande - 'SMOG'

Not told the insurance just yet no. Will get round to it in the week.
And yeah in serious need of red badges. A little pricey for what they are tho haha. All these little bits will have to wait tho as the wallet is in pain ATM :p only got enough to declare the mods I've already done.
Will get there eventually :)
You think the car looks nice tho?
 
Re: Bens grande - 'SMOG'

I like it yeah mate :D

Love tints on black cars.

Also like the choice of alloys - black ones would have been nice but i think those go great with your car.

Random question..are the wing mirrors plastic black or painted black (if you know what i mean lol)
 
Re: Bens grande - 'SMOG'

What do you mean mate? Like the actual alloys or the brakes? The inside of my spokes are already black. That's what makes them fit the car I think if they were all silver they would just look too much...
 
Re: Bens grande - 'SMOG'

Oh hmmmm never thought about doing the lip black. We'll see :)
Lowering adds like 250 onto my premium so wont be happening for a while :(
Soon tho :) when i get the money together :)
 
Re: Bens grande - 'SMOG'

Car looks insane man! Not a massive fan of the alloys but they do suit your car well! If only my apprenticeship paid me more so I could afford mods! Pay rise in september = Newer 1.4 16v GP :slayer:
 
Re: Bens grande - 'SMOG'

Haha i dont even have a job any more! So im really struggling at the minute having to get quite a lot of help from my parents for the time being :/ until i find some more part time work somewhere. If i worked full time every penny i earn would go on my car haha :p
 
Re: Bens grande - 'SMOG'

Off topic but BT are taking on a large number of Openreach (field engineer) apprenticeships this year, you can apply for this via the BT apprentice site...do a google.

Starting Salary £12k

Just a suggestion that sprung to mind :)
 
Re: Bens grande - 'SMOG'

Yeah, I applied for one of those last year, but I ended up going for a better one with lower pay :confused:
But pay rise in sept upto about 12k means New car and extra money to spend on it :cool: (but not an evo ;) )
