franchise 1 Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Well its been about 10 months in the making due to having no pennies but I finally managed to get her looking something like.A bit of a nu school oem+ slant, someone's gotta try it.17x7.5 bbs denver rims, repainted in graphite, yoko rubber with 20mm projektzwo adaptors and fk konigsport coilies. Couldn't really go any lower as I'm getting rub on the rears as it is, quite a badass nose down rake goin on though. Just got some clear side repeaters to go on and I think the back lights are goin back to standard smokes, kinda gone off em.Not the greatest photographer but here are a few snaps.[mod edit resize pics]Moderator edit by: cadguy Link to post Share on other sites

Jk* 0 Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 I saw those wheels on a Audi A3 and they looked crap. But i think they suit the car a treat. Some choice mods youve made there. (H) Link to post Share on other sites
franchise 1 Posted August 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Was a bit iffy myself but thought I'd give it a whirl. Works better than I thought they would, look better in the flesh too. Just need to sort the rear lights out and we're off! Link to post Share on other sites

craggsy 91 Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Nice looking car as well. I had them lights on mine till I crashed it Link to post Share on other sites
mike 6 Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 looks really nice with the low stance, i think teh darker finish sets them off Link to post Share on other sites
hellsVR6 0 Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Veh nice indeed. Is the first pic taken in Rammy? Looks like right opp my mate's house. Maybe am barking up wrong tree tho..lol Link to post Share on other sites
jaysVR6 2 Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 Looking good fella. A marked improvement. Always wondered about the colour coded front spoiler and sills though buddy, cheap as chips from VW mate and would make an improvement IMO Looking much better Link to post Share on other sites
kalv 0 Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 Nice Al... looks top... Link to post Share on other sites
franchise 1 Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 Jay, lookin into that, thinking of breaking up the space a bit with some textureds all round, just a pain with the rear bumper as I'd need to either get a whole new bumper, or maybe get the valance painted matt to match (??) i think the codeds make her look fat for some reason. They aint cheap either, worked out at about £75 a side for the sills plus about £70 for a splitter, oem so will look elsewhere for now.As for bottled gas.....wouldn't have a clue where to get that from.....buwaaah haaaa!!!!!Not in Rammy either, Bolton near metro salvage.

franchise 1 Posted September 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 UPDATE ALERT!!Not that much really, got my hands on the fog ducts from Adam, sanded em down and painted black. Added smoked front indicators too, but may go back to normal clear indicators for contrast. Also managed to tint spray the clear rears all red which look sweet (pics to follow).2.5" zorst with decat going on soon too, just waiting in the cellar to replace the 2' dtm system, with cat. Bring the noise! Link to post Share on other sites
franchise 1 Posted October 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 Oh dear, well, I just can't help it. I get some money in and instead of being good I go and blow it on a little something for next season.What does everyone think?Personally, I nearly spermed in my pants, hence the knee jerk reaction.7x16, 5x112 audi s2 rims. not the widest, but with the adaptors taking the et to 17, a cheeky bit of poke is gonna happen so they'll sit the same as my 7.5s.These won't take as long as the monzas to get ready but I aint using these through winter.Comments? Offers on the monzas Link to post Share on other sites
ad24gti 0 Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 Wheels Look great i was thinking bout them aswell Look forward to seeung them fitted Link to post Share on other sites
franchise 1 Posted October 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 New lights in the mix. These should come tomorrow so the weekend will be dedicated to splitting and smoking these bad boys. Clean all the way....kinda. Link to post Share on other sites
mannie 0 Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 How do you smoke them,is it spray tint the glass or tint film ? Link to post Share on other sites
Toby 0 Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 the new wheels are lovely, but so are the ones you've got on it at the moment - will you be getting rid of those? Link to post Share on other sites
franchise 1 Posted November 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 First up, the lights, you split the glass from the backs and paint the non reflective parts of the inners. These are kinda textured/striped, paint em black and you get a nice set of cool lights (I'll post pics up after I've split and re-seled em).Wheels, I'll be taking the 17s off to be touched up in the new year then more than likely sell em, with the yoko tyres (but no adaptors). Interested fella? ;-D Link to post Share on other sites
