Also painted calipers and wheel bolts


And heres some pics of her so far :)


Soon to have a laguna splitter on (hopefully get it on sat) make it look a bit lower since the exhausts like an inch of the ground but the bumper aint lol.
I have some big plans for the next few months, I wasnt sure on getting a new car or putting an engine in the punto. But so far engines winning lol. So a need someone to talk to who knows about fitting a HGT engine.
cheers

Re: she's getting there

Just wondering how did you paint the checkers on the cd player surround and ashtray etc?
Id love to do that but would probably mess it up lol

its vinyl lol not paint. just cut lots of little square's and took my time sticking them. its really easy to do if you have vinyl.
 
Re: she's getting there

hows the pot holes with the coilovers, as i chose 50mm drop springs over coileys and tbh its pretty horrid :doh:

its not bad tbh, av got a tiny rattle from the back that i cant seam to find, almost sounds like something in ma spairwheel tool kit rattling. and ma exhaust was hitting my rear beam if i hit a big bump but fixed it with some padding on the beam lol worked a treat!
 
Re: she's getting there

Re: she's getting there
