@dafcc23410=youdirtyfox:
Lori I can let you borrow the metal blanks I used to cut around if you want?
If you don't mind bud?
Would love too.
Looking good tho bud :) very nice..
-
LOL DJ!
Lori , I need to cut a few more as the first one I peeled
off took some paint off so I need to touch up a bit
then I'll PM you.
-
No worrys, I'll either try yours out or try this..
Backwards lights would be clear ofc.. didn't have the time to find a image of them :)
Indies still need placement ofc.. stupid uk rules for yellow.
For a more finished look.
-
Yeah like it mate nice one.
-
alrighty! applied 3 coats of clear lacquer
a couple of days ago, so put the lights on
this afternoon, still need to cut the lacquer
back in a couple of weeks so then I will
decide of the black vinyl chioce to go across
the middle and apply the flyeye tint.after lacquer
-
That looks well…
Congrats dude!!!
-
cheers dude, im pretty chuffed with
how well they have turned out, lets
hope they can stand the test of time!
-
kinda looks like what i did to my astina cpl o years ago:
looks sweet mate!
-
Wow, that looks better then I expected tbh, nice work!
-
Cheers lads :D
If anyone wants to do this mod I can supply them with
the 8 x circles in low tack masking film now for a small fee.
-
-
wow tht looks cool great work dude
-
I really like that, only bit I dont like is the white reverse light, if it could be matched red somehow I think it would be perfect
-
I did the same thing ages ago… ;-) looks sweet doesn't it. ;-)
-
good job! They turned out very well. Now hows that turbo getting on?
-
Well tbh Marco it wont be happening till around next August time
now when my insurance goes down ( went over limited mileage +
2 x SP30's!) still need to buy the clucth and the AEM F/IC aswell.So in the meantime im concentrating on apperance, just
bought these with part of my xmas bonus :D cheers Boss!
should give me that 8J look 8)
@DJ > flyeye should tint down the bright white reverse light?!
-
Damn nice mate! I whould like my wheels to be around 8j too, but I already hit the fenders with the tires in tight corners.. Damn floppy suspention and k-sport coilovers.. :lol:
-
I should be OK , There not hubcentrics though hence why
they were 95 quid for four, but im going
to have to buy spigot rings or machine
up a locating ring to centralize them
onto the hub, plus grind off some of the
original stud if it fowls on the inner face
of the wheel.
-
Getting some stance eh! Look forward to seeing these on. Good to hear it's still in the works and sounds like you're being realistic about the planning too. It'd be great to actually have some more performance orientated mx3s on this site.
-
Yep I really like my wheels (7j) so didnt want to give
them up for some 8j rims, but want to get the top
of the tyre right out by the arch or maybe a bit beyond
and some camber to tuck them back in! :D
