Update 24/06/12

Now the performance side of things is nearer enough done , bar the stuff R-tech told me to upgrade . Its time to start on the cosmetic side of things.

First things first, the routinely weekend bath 









So then…. At the beginning of the week this parcel turned up



Going by the results I got last time with a rattle can I wasn’t fazed to crack on with these.

So I went and done some shopping and came home with this little lot



Checked the forecast before starting and cracked on with the tasks ahead.

The spray booth , Bare ABS plastic



Several coats of primer



Primer wet flated using 1000grit 



First coat of LC9Z-Black magic 





LC9Z- Black magic Wet flated using 1000grit 



Top Clear coat 





Again Im really pleased with the finish considering its from a rattle, Maybe paintings my hidden talent!?

Typical the weather has turned for the worst, but I guess that just gives the skirts extra time to harden/dry.

So whilst I’m waiting for the warm weather I dream off, what’s the best method of attaching them to the car? Anyone got any links for products??

Ever since fitting the Anni rear valance My exhaust has been rubbing slightly on it hence the exhaust heat rap up the top, so this time I wasn’t going to take any more risks with melting things so It was up to the work shop to do some fine adjustments.

UP she goes 



Working magic 



The finished article 







I also had a little clear out in the garage where I came across these, so had a little play and this is what I came up with.



The finished article  ….. What boost pipes?



So then people, I need some input Obviously it still needs lowering and stance but what else do you think should be done?

What are peoples thoughts on the wheels? Change completely or painting!?

 was possibly thinking refurbing them in a gun metal grey, but im staring at a blank page with not much imagination


talk to me…. !?

[DanChave]

Great work on this! I'm glad you covered up the boost pipes What kinda style wheels are you looking for? OEM or Aftermarket goodness?
