Might possibly do some mirrors and my front splitter but just used up some scraps of the sheet to do these little things:
I could do with a better quality vinyl like decalFX.com use, cus then I could stretch it a little better, as it is this stuff just seems to melt a little and lose its colour.

have you thought about doing the whole dash? that would be awesome! or not? trying to picture it, but what you've done looks nice.

Far too fiddley for me mate, I can do easy square things at the moment and that's about it. The dash would look, well, I'm not sure, I think it would look cool but a bit OTT. I'm all for getting the flocked look going on mine.

Search on google Jay, there are loads of places on there and I don't want to put every one that I have just seen in a link. You can get your own flocking kit, which I might look into…...

Okay, here's one, tis in Suffolk though

I tried to vinyl wrap my dash, I flipped out after 2 hours of heating, stretching and cutting… just wayyyyyyyyyyyy to fiddely... cos you have negative 3d curves... it just won't stick/hold properly... I just gave up... (which i very rarely do)

Well guys, I've decided I am definitely keeping the MX3 but I very much doubt I will be doing anything to it very soon, as next year I am going sensible and concentrating on my ever decreasing future.
I am going to be concentrating all my efforts into my house which has been neglected for near enough 2 years and is in serious need of some work. The electrics are in a bad way, there are holes in the bodywork (it's damned cold with missing external bricks!), the engine(boiler) is faulty, the sunroof (badly done loft conversion) needs ripping out and re building, the fuel tank(kitchen) is in a sorry state. Then I can sell it and get myself somewhere with a garage and somewhere to work on the car away from the elements and scum that roam the streets of my town.

When it's clear again, come over and we'll fit some camber adjust bolts on the bottom of each strut.

So as stated in a nother section, my rear licence plate light bracket has ceased to be any more so I did this today
and in the dark it's given me a full on Fast and the furious look

:lol:
Well, at least you can see the plate.

You need to cover them up from facing backwards otherwise they are nice,

Yeah, I'm gonna splice together some 10mm carbon fibre vinyl and hope that works, gives a good F&F look though doesn't it lol.
I'm thinking of getting one for the underside of my front splitter and wiring it it into my fogs, would have to be a large one, I'm gonna bring underglow kits back yO!! :lol:
-
:twisted:
Just ordered one, and with it being white, it'll be legal, will also be on the fogs so I can turn it off and on when I please. I am going back to the early 2000's! Watch out for a hideous, eye peeling re spray and OTT PLastic bodykit soon LOL.
Maybe I'll become the car that sits atop our lovely forum (we should really have that picture changed- I vote Sooty, Marcos car!).
-
:lol: I actually like it, always had a soft spot for underglows :oops: Plus they make for very cool night photographs.

Yeah, done right they can have quite a good effect, it's a shame every badly modified Saxos, Corsas, etc wore them at the start of this decade, I still have a soft spot for them too.
I remember watching the Crow and seeing T Birds lowrider with its under glow kit and being amazed by it (that film pre dated F&F by a good few years as well!).
-
I have a set of 4 pinspot waterproof LEDs for fitting into wheel arch liners here to go in mine, they are all red and come with a control box like christmas tree lights so you can fade, flash, swap corners etc
Havent got round to fitting them yet but the winter time can leave a lot of spare time on your hands 8)
-
Another secret undercarneon fetish here :oops:
Wife says a big no no though,lol
like what youve done thoughThe Crow is in my top films :D
