Hello!
I Picked up this car short of 3 weeks ago now and thought I'd start a MM up as I never got round to it with my MK2. Bought it as it is, and the mileage hit 81K shortly after.

Since I've bought it not changed much other than a spring, drop link, aerial, HU, Interior LED. I got my starter motor looked at as it were sticking in places, resistor, shoes need changing but I'll get round to that sometime on the weekend. Went in for MOT on Fri 21/1 - Passed, with one advisory being that.

Mod wise, my room is full of bits and bobs ready to go on but waiting for other stuff to arrive to make life easier fitting all at once.

Current:-
Plate LEDs
De-badged
De-wipered
Interior LED
LED Sidelights
5% Rear Tints
Pressed Plates
De-badged Grill
Bee Sting Aerial
FK AK Street Coilovers
Chrome Indicator Bulbs
T-Heko Wind Deflectors
Sony CDX300s HU (v.old)
Matt black vinyl behind plate
15" Wolfrace Katanas - using as winter runners

Future:-
Boot Build
Rear Camber
Re-trim interior
Smoothed Boot
Tint top rear lights
CC Handles/Mirrors
17" Dare RS Staggered



Hopefully keep this thread active with progression, I shall be attending meets etc through out the year with the NWICC being on the list as it's not too far.
Looks good mate, identical to when I first got mine! Got to say though I took the alloys off straight away 1. For insurance and 2. Personally, I dont like them. Each to their own. Look forward to see this when its done, by the sounds of it its going to look awsome :)
 
RyanBox Yeah, I would rather run steelies than these, but I don't want to end up buying some so it's either run these until I change or swap with a mate once I've sprayed/refurbed.

Hopefully it all goes to plan.

Yeah I swapped them out for steelies, payed £125 with good tyres and sold the alloys for £70 so it didnt cost me much. Hope it all pans out for you bud, the ride significantly improved when I swapped them over :)
Have you thought about abarth headlights?

Coilovers have arrived, get round to it when the weathers good (y)
Also January Waxybox came, few products to try out.

Now I need to get some matt vinyl for between grilles, sharpish.

The fks are budget but in all fairness they give a nice drop didn't complain on the mk2 couldn't fault the ride mates even got a set on his arosa dropped all the way on stretch tyres and even that's not harse abit bumpy but not back breaking I'm actually looking forward to getting mine on :) p.s loving the alloys ;) send me a WhatsApp to some sad news :(
