Idrees Posted March 27, 2008 Author Share Posted March 27, 2008 Got a Glanza passengers lense today, thanks to David.We decided to fit the number plate holder on at the same time, its in black yet just like the bumpers.I'll get some proper pictures tomorrow. He needs to get a new import number plate made to fit in there nicely. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tayyib Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 well hopefully i may do this, depending on if i go back to college to continue with mechanics or paint operations in september, if i do then i will definately be opening a garage in the next few years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 You still can't paint though so there won't be any spray painting service without me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 How easy is it to fit the numberplate surround?Toying with the idea of a CF one Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 Pretty straight forward.I trial fitted it with the reverse lights out and made a marking on the tailgate for the the reverse lights because they stick out fromt the back, therefore the tailgate is too shallow for them. Then I got the angle grinder out and made two big holes. Put loads of bonding glue on the tailgate and inside of the plate surround to ensure it doesn't rattle, stuck it on with masking tape holding it in place and put the two nuts back on from the inside of the tailgate.

Tayyib Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 that depends which way i go mechanics/bodywork, but if i dont do bodywork then there is always u to do it lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Cool I thought the tailgate would need grinding for the plate holder to fit flush Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted April 5, 2008 Author Share Posted April 5, 2008 Just thought I'd add a few new pictures and some very small updates..Random one of mine..Raised bonnetIce white headlight bulbs(Old on the right and new on the left)The car is now running on a 5EFE ECU Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scutch0 Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 nice pics, when is it being painted?surely it'll have a much lower rev limit with a 5e ecu? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dean @RW-Developments Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 looks like its coming along nicely mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nanglebadger Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 comin along great and really quick too!Keep it up guys!Phil. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tayyib Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 im not sure there is a rev limit difference, but oh wel its running on this ecu until conversion now, respray will be in 6-7 weeks hopefully. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted April 6, 2008 Author Share Posted April 6, 2008 According to the rev needle, it hits the limiter at 6200. That is obviously not accurate though. From sitting in the passengers seat it does feel like it redlines quicker than it did before but not so much difference.If I'm spraying it, it will be after all my exams which will be the end of May.
