AndyMB Posted July 22, 2013 Author Share Posted July 22, 2013 Wow, haven't updated this in a long time! Done lots of little bits to this. Took the seats out for a big hoover pre Japshow. Can see my new matts in there too...http://s514.photobucket.com/user/Colamitybenny/media/Glanza/P1000072edit_zps51b0c391.jpg.html'> This bit on the edge of the boot always looked rough so I decided to trim it in carpet. Had black laying around so did this as a test run. Will now order the grey to match the carpet and do it in one piece.http://s514.photobucket.com/user/Colamitybenny/media/Glanza/IMG_0490edit_zpsd423dd0d.jpg.html'> http://s514.photobucket.com/user/Colamitybenny/media/Glanza/IMG_0491edit_zps271fcc8e.jpg.html'> Also added a red stripe to the lip of my Enkeis. They should have red anodized lips but mine have been re painted. I just wanted a bit of red as a nod to the original design...http://s514.photobucket.com/user/Colamitybenny/media/Glanza/IMG_0485edit_zps36aa9d7b.jpg.html'> http://s514.photobucket.com/user/Colamitybenny/media/Glanza/IMG_0483edit_zps51699a3b.jpg.html'> http://s514.photobucket.com/user/Colamitybenny/media/Glanza/IMG_0482edit_zps1e397922.jpg.html'> Then I tucked her away hidden in my Nan's garage whilst I was on holiday. Love this picture...http://s514.photobucket.com/user/Colamitybenny/media/Glanza/IMG_0501edit_zps01c2cb57.jpg.html'> Now I'm back I can carry on the work.

daniel_g Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Looks mega clean man, that 5zigen border 304 exhaust is awesome isnt it ? Mine used to pop and bang loads. Was this at Japfest ? I saw a white V there with that exhaust system. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I saw a white V there with that exhaust system. Thanks mate, yeah it's pretty clean now, finishing off the engine bay now. Yeah the exhaust pops so much, much better than my HKS one. No I didn't go to Japfest, will have to get there next year though when it's all finished Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shorty Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Loving the super clean mild manor of your v mate, all the mods are so subtle and complimentary. Think the oem recaro interior would finish this off perfectly. Keep up the awesome work mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Love the work you're putting into this mate! That carpeted rear section is amazing, mines a bit tatty but never thought about doing that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
A L 3 X Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 How did you do that carpet thing? Spray glue? Mine needs it also lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AndyMB Posted July 23, 2013 Author Share Posted July 23, 2013 How did you do that carpet thing? Spray glue? Mine needs it also lolIt's self adhesive carpet. Got it online, it's quite stretchy and the glue is pretty strong. I was going to re paint that bit but I thought the carpet would look neater. It stops that annoying boot rattle too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Link to the bits you used please dude? If you don't mind people stealing your idea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AndyMB Posted July 23, 2013 Author Share Posted July 23, 2013 Of course not. If people like the idea then go for it. This is the site I got it from. Bought the black years ago, will be buying the grey soon as I think it would match the boot carpet better. http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/accessories-carpetvinyl/For the best finish its best to remove the boot seal around the bottom to overlap the carpet. Remove the plastic catch trim too. Adhesive is strong and the carpet is quite stretchy. Hope it helps someone else out Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Awesome thanks for that dude! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
