Dont cheap out on them dude. XYZ super sports are built for road cars, myself and Marco can vouch for them being soft enough for everyday use :D
-
I know but I also want new paint all over, fit my bodykit parts and change the exhaust again plus remove all dents thats a couple of grand left to go and this project thread will be finished :D
-
no you cant mate. you cant end this project. it has been a good read if i do say so myself lol. are you going to keep no2 for another project?
-
You say that it will be the end but it won't, just wait till you feel more than 200hp in it :-)
-
No2 will be up for sale soon and all proceeds will be going on a mental paint job, I am even having the equipe logo on the side recreated in another colour to suit the new paint, gotta get the dents done first :wink:
I am now looking at colours, its either going to be a green so I dont have to change the V5 or I just go OEM with the noble greenI was thinking of a british racing green like the MX5's as there isnt one in it but it wouldnt stand out so I quite fancy a candy green of some sort, when I sell equipe no2 for what I want I will be halfway to the paint fund :D :D :D
-
I know that feeling lol. got a fair few dents myself
-
christ expensive paint then lol.

£150 cash deal for all dents to be removed by a local dent bloke in a day
Garfy, I know it would be a complete monster when I go over 200bhp but I am quite happy at the moment with it mechanically and feel its a happy monster at the moment :mrgreen:
-
well put the one thing I had from the eunos I broke up on today and that is the sunroof wind deflector so heres a couple of pics plus a good one I got in the rain today from all the polish I put on for the show last weekend :shock:
-
looking good !!, green calipers and pas hose to match the engine bay tho!, also have you not thought about the az badge on yours? not sure on rattys one ???
-
I do have an AZ one sat right next to the PC :wink:
Green caliper paint is like unicorn sh*t unfortunately best I can get is british racing green and looks too dark :x
**Looked again and found some so green calipers on way soon :D :D :D :D
-
what paint does skoda use for its calipers ??, it would look sweet matching the bay tho !
-

Got some lime green to match the hoses on its way already :wink:
-
Looks cool with all those accesories :D
-
soon it will look like the mazda version of Mr T lol or just a catalogue on wheels
-
I'm not 100% on the sunroof deflector, it makes the lines of the car odd, it's the same with the headlight protectors, they destroy the natural flow of the MX3 at the front.
I think if the rear spoiler wasn't there (The high one) it would look ok (to me) but not with both.
/personal view.
Nice looking car either way :)
-
It does ruin the flow of the car I must admit but will give it a go, its only 2 screws to rmove so its not a biggy but I disagree on the lights
-
Can you let us know how it effects sound when the sunroof is open? it should help with the MPG as well since the wind will be bounced up and over the sun roof rather then slamming into the hole in the roof lol. (Giving my basic understanding of aerodynamics)
Didn't know you had a set of headlight protectors bud? I couldn't see them on the images linked.
-
Lori, the deflector is great, no noise with sunroof open and seems to pull the hot air out of the car now :D
Today did some bits I wanted to do to my car, painted the calipers lime green to go with the engine bay ( finally found a shop that does any colour caliper enamel), swapped the side indicators with the eunos because they are flat and do not have the usual bulge in them the UK ones have and also swapped all the wheel nuts over for the nice chrome capped nuts on the eunos
-
now that is perfect colour matching !!, :D
