5 dooors are hott mate

Love it!

Wack a focus induction on it and maybe some tints

 

[sbrown987]

Focus induction kit is on the christmas list! But rear 3 tints on 5 doors look daft unless you get 25% on the f

ront two aswell and i dont have the monies for that!

 

[ryanbrown1]

you paint them alloys your self?

 

[sbrown987]

Yeah it was pretty easy, plus I got help from my brother in law who works in a bodyshop so i got good tips and paint from him!

pretty sure theres a guide in the punto section, i didnt use it but others have with good results

Oh, want to colour code my mirrors aswell soon!

 

[Ben2693]

Definately looking gd

really like the alloys,It would look nice lowered 35mm or 50mm!!

keep up the gd work mate

 

[Benny 1992]

looks nice mate, u could paint the calipers and drums n tint the rear lights

Not the best photo, i took it 5 minutes ago and the flash changes how it looks, this is the centre console i got from the scrappys for a fiver! still need to put the bit with the window switches etc on but its too cold at the moment!

Oh i also want a focus induction kit...

My blue footwell neons came today! i plugged them onto an old battery to see what tey look like Just got to fit them now! Ha they have an inline switch because im guessing they would get annoying...but i stil want to be able to show off with them when theres a chance!

Also I fitted my xenon-lookalike-blue-ultra-bright-fancy hee haw bulbs. theyre actally quite good, have a blue tinge to them but they are much brighter than standards and are less yellow, also got free LED sidelights which was a bonus! Theyre quite cool must admit!

Aaaaand the car passed its MOT on friday morning after me working on it from 6.00pm thurday night till 2.00am friday morning! changed both front wish bones track rod end and brake pads and discs! chuffed about that!

Just a few updated piccys, snow is melting around our area!! But unfortunately its turning to ice.. went for a drive today and didnt go over 30! Saved me lots of petrol though

Got a big dent in the passengers door But it should just pop out hopefully
Also got my footwell neons in! I quite like them actually, i dont drive with them but its handy when i drop my phone and money and stuff! Cant say its a waste when they cost six pound!

[sbrown987]

Long time no update!

Not done any mods as such to the car but done alot of work... a couple of weeks ago clutch release beaing seized and resulted in major destroyedageable of the clutch and gearbox :/ so in ent a new clutch and gearbox and starter motor went aswell :/ did it all myself with no previous experience of really big important jobs like that anyway!! I really enjoyed learning and trying it out though

I have pictures of the clutch on my twitter, I'll try get them onto this as soon as!

I recently bought 286 white bulbs for the centre console which should be arriving saturday hopefully! Although when i get the time to fit them...no idea!

Looking at changing the speedo SMD's but I've hard its a bit of a bugger..:/ any experienced people out there give us a shout!

I'm also thinking of getting canbus 501 LED bulbs for the sidelights, number plate and interior light! I did have normal leds on the sidelights but they put the warning light on, canbus sorts that right?

Oh and my MPG at the moment is 43.5

Yup! 1.2 8v

With my job i get to drive faster cars so ive realised how slow mine is so showing off and trying to be fast is silly as they are as slow as pants! I have my fast driving fun in the work cars haha!

 

[Azzam]

[sbrown987]

nah the release bearing seized and the thick metal fork that its held on by moved into the clutch and got minced up haha! I'm never hard on the clutch its just one of those things!!
