Tayyib Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 also im really glad the old wheels are gone, just in need of some skirts before it goes in to the bodyshop on the 24th. Quote
Tayyib Posted March 8, 2008 Posted March 8, 2008 just had the arches rolled today, atleast they wont be rubbing now. will get some more pics up before it goes in to the bodyshop which is on the 17th now Quote
Idrees Posted March 8, 2008 Author Posted March 8, 2008 Couple of quick pics from the bodyshop300bhp Civic We all know where this yellow has been copied from! Its over in Bradford but it was worth travelling there because they've done a good job, and we believe they will do a good job with the paint too Quote
Idrees Posted March 9, 2008 Author Posted March 9, 2008 Picked up a Blitz induction kit today and fitted it with my brotherReally pleased with the results and obviously the noise it makes too Quote
Tayyib Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 went to local scrappies today, picked up a few bitsbmw twin hornand paseo dialsmore to come in the next few days, such as new doors, glanza skirts, glanza rear bumper. Quote
Galliano Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 paseo in a local scrappie ... ?good finds mate, look foward to see them in/on the car Quote
Tayyib Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 might have another set of the paseo dials coming this week depending on the price, they'll be going up for sale. Quote
Tayyib Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 Picked up loads of parts today on a 260 mile trip. First to see Kash in Leciester and then picked sideskirts up from Paul in Stafford.You wouldn't think it would all fit in the back of a Starlet eh?Both Glanza doors with all electrics and central lockingGlanza door cardsGlanza rear bumperGlanza sideskirtsFront drivers wingIve got the Glanza number plate holder too which came with the car when I bought itIt wont be going in to the bodyshop soon as im not sure what i want to do with it. me and my brother might just respray the full car, not sure what colour yet. Orange? hmm too chavvy? Quote
Sparky Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 might have another set of the paseo dials coming this week depending on the price, they'll be going up for sale.Dibs please mate Wow this is going to look good Hmmm was going to say Liquid yellow (new Renault sports) but that would be too much like your bro's ;) Quote
Tayyib Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 No probs sparky i might collect them this weekIdrees might be spraying his liquid yellow next lol but na mines not going yellow it would kill his uniqueness Quote
Galliano Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 err.. nothing done on a starlet before.. errr... pink? how about the tropicana that n/a starlets, and paseos... havnt seen a glanza in that colour before Quote
Tayyib Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 i'm 99% sure i want to go for the gunmetal grey, get the wheels powdercoated white, but idrees is saying to for the orange, but i feel someone is bound to copy that, just like they tried to copy idrees's. went for a jet wash earlier and all the paint came off the front bumper with a little harsh usage of the jet wash. the next month or so will be spent on prepping the car for the respray whilst the cash builds up Quote
SiCaln Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 lol oh dear must say man thats some good purchases there I've always been fond of the Yaris Thunder Grey that could look excellent on the car mate Quote
Idrees Posted March 18, 2008 Author Posted March 18, 2008 I'm with grey now too.. a grey and amber theme could look awesome imo.Grey car with JDM style lenses and orange rims?We'll visit the paintshop on the weekend to see what greys he comes up with Quote
Sparky Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 I agree Gunmetal mate withouyt a doubt Cheers about the dials keep me updated ;) Quote
Galliano Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 gunmetal would look sexual i must say.... orange would look bonkers Quote
Nanglebadger Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 grey and amber.....that would be so damn smart!!!!!!!!!!!DO IT!Phil. Quote
Galliano Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 how do you mean mate? gunmetal bodywork.. orange wheels? Quote
Liam_D Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 Gunmetal with added orange bits, would be perfection if done right, if you ask me.DOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!! Quote
Idrees Posted March 18, 2008 Author Posted March 18, 2008 Yes Sam thats what I mean, or maybe an orange lip on the wheels. Quote
Galliano Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 meh... no arty farty.. full on orange will do im telling you now, no hesitation, do it! Quote
Tayyib Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 not too sure about the orange bits you guys are talking about, but they will be tried out, im definitly going for the gunmetal just got to get some prices and then make my mind up if im going to do it with idrees or forget all the hassle and have it done.
