chrisp96 Posted February 7, 2013 Author Share Posted February 7, 2013 (edited) Hey guys was at the scrappys today and got plastic cover for the boot and aerial and fuel filler cap Does anybody know if glanza clocks would fit in my sportif also i might get the standard momo alloys as they are on the car at the scrappys and have good tyres on them or do you think i should keep the wheels i have and paint them white and they are civic jordan wheels i have Edited February 7, 2013 by chrisp96 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Billy SR Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 (edited) Glanza clocks would be silly because they are measured in km and they would probably be out. best bet is SR or CD clocks, which i'm after at the moment as I have a sportif too. You can also fit paseo clocks which are sexy and white but you would be missing either a fuel light or something else I think.

TrisK Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Does anybody know if glanza clocks would fit in my sportifThey do but you will need to do a bit of wiring. Glad to see this getting saved! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

loguey Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Nice mate, like the wheels and in that colour, you just need to get it dropped on some springs and get rid of those tinted rear lights! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chrisp96 Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 (edited) Thanks mate and yeah the tinted lights are coming off really want some 98 spec rear lights and yeah going to get it lowered 40mm. Still got lots to do but plenty time as not passed test yet still got to waxoil underneath and arches fit new timing belt and sort out the handling so maybe new brakes strut brace etc then get glanza parts painted and fitted and new tyres. Also got to sort the exhaust out want to get it welded up at an angle and get the interior sorted out.I do have a list somewhere lol This is my inspiration love this car Thanks Chris Edited February 20, 2013 by chrisp96 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
