Fraz < On topic of the foglights/sidelight change > How come you didnt just use a lower what bulb?? or cut the wires and convert to norm filament??

 

I have sidelights and fog lights in the units so when I turn my normal sidelights on, the sidelights in my fog lights come on and when I want to turn my fog lights on I just hit the button. I'll get some pictures up of what I have done, not much but it's a little.

 

Cheers

Ahh ok get ya now, i thot you changed to sidelight bulbs to let ya drive legaly with the 'fogs' on type thing

 

Nah, they both work bud, I think it looks quite snazzy in the dark with all four lenses on sidelights.

Thats the back box, it doesn't quite sit straight but luckily it sits perfectly in line with the curve of the bumper so I am happy with it, gives a fair rip but nothing too loud and when the backbox isn't ripping, the airfilter is.

A I have no income I can't afford to replace tyres, my front two were bald so put the back two 15's on the front and put two of my 17's on the bed to stay away from the rozzers.

the handles are crying out to be colour coded! looking good so far though.

 

I am on it mate, I have a list that I can do with little cost and a list that I need to do when I get a job (doing nothing all day is boring) and the handles are on the list, along with the boot strip and number plate light holder.

Ok boys, I know it has been ages but here goes.

 

I didn't do much up until Christmas as I had little cash, fortunatly that has changed but unfortunatly I had a little accident in the snow ;(

 

Smashed the back bumper, 1 back light and dented the quarter, smashed the front bumper, headlight and clipped the wing a little. I will get pictures up tomorrow or Tuesday. It is booked into the body shop to get pulled next Monday and my mate is going to fill it all and prime it ready for a full respray :D I have fitted my coilovers and put tyres on my 2 bald 17's, fitted a cat back stainless system, 20 second delay relay, wah wipe realy and other little bits.

 

Sorry I havn't been keeping you updated, as I say I will put pictures up soon.

 

Cheers :thumb:

unlucky with the snow buddy ;( ( thought that had all gone by now X( ) but good job on the mending!

 

My own fault really, the snow is only fun until something goes wrong :( I was very tempted to break it and scrap the rest but I didnt want to give up, especially after going to Hull to get it then swapping 2 engines in it, it's fair to say I have grown close to it. I am slowly but surely getting there :thumb:

 

Pictures will be taken tomorrow and posted for all of you interested.

 

Cheers,

Fraz

Not too bad like, fixable :thumb:

 

I picked up a cheap black 5 door for spares so fitted the front bumper, bonnet and wing mirrors. Keeping the bonnet and mirrors black, I'll get the bumper sprayed with the car. I have also fitted coilovers.

 

This is how she is sitting just now
