I`ve got a 2000 106 quiksilver with lexus lights, GTI alloys,
headlight brows, piperX induction kit.
its booked into the bodyshop aswel to get my pug badge took of the bonnet
and smoothed over so my bonnet will be completely free and just straight,
after that hopefully get it delocked.

yeah youre right, they are small. I think theyre 14s. I reckon he should get 16s and slam it on its ass
Lol yer i was tryin to say that in a nice way tho! Wud look damm fine with 16" and slammed 2 deck!
just to let you know im gettin it de-lockeed and my tailgate smoothed within a week or so of my boonet gettin done!! so itll be a super smooth quiksilver!!
right i wana get some alloys on me motor but im in a dilemma. 15s an slammed but then its gettin on a ramp come MOT time. 16s and lowered?? but then its just normal and not different. or arch scraping 17s but they might look too big on a car like mine an put it on stilts. for 15s im thinkin of 5 spoke alloys and IF 17s then id like mille miglia T12s. any help appreciated
Get 16s mate, dont look to high, dont look to small either, and you can still slam it!!!
Don`t worry about MOT time i have huge probs finding a station to accomadate for how low the car is, but when you need to find out where will do it, just pm me...
wahey, got me car back from the bodyshop satday an its lookin smooth an sexy! its been de-locked, smoothed tailgate, an smooth bonnet.i got a solenoid fited aswel to open me boot at the press of a butten. next on the bodyshop list is to get me recess in the bumber filled in. anyway im hopefully gettin some wheels soon and an alarm! anyone got any other suggestions?
Thought I saw your car the other day, but I wasn't sure coz of the smooth boot. Now i know it was you. It looks great mate, nice project you've got going
might be an idea to blank the number plate, you never know who could be browsing this forum.

I dont see the point in blanking it, you never know who could see the car in the middle of the street either.
cheers ben! the bodyshop also took out 2 dints i didnt ask them to do, and re-paired my passenger door were sum1 had tried to break in! so my car is in mint condition now apart from the front and back bumbers! just got decide on ma wheels............
it just goes to show how removing the badges and also de'locking it can change the appearance of a car. It looks lovely
keep it up. You should get a spoiler next? x
very nice gary looking smart
nice one matey, that shamooth boot looks propa bo................
Looks well smart mate, they have done a great job....
looks spot on gary, lovely and smooth
still confused as to what size wheels to go for?
indeed i am very confused, ill prob go for 16s and slam it. its not worth the hastle and ball ache to be honest to get 17s. now which wheels do i get??? and cars goin in body shop to get me bumber recess filled in on thursday
saw ur car at merseycruise looked sweet smoothed bonnet an boot looks quality keep it goin
hey hey hey, ive just orderd 50mm lowering springs, for me quiky so itll be on the deck, and ill probly take it down 60 at the back! i cant wait!!
right i havnt been on for a very long time indeed, ive just got me wheels (16" OZ titans with 195/40 tyres, so yes halfords you can get them~) and its goin in the garage on wensday to get lowered then me wheels are gettin put on. Im alos gettin me clifford cat 1 alarm fitted on tuesday! yipeeee, i love credit cards!!!!!!!!!!!!
sweet man b sure to post pics up as soon as its done
t can i do! its lowered by the way and lookin sweet as and its got an alarm that keeps playin up so a good but bad couple of days!
sory the wheels are scrubbin on the rear axle on the inside of them! and i dont no what i can do to fix it! the inside of the wheel rubs on part of the axle and ive got 21mm spacers! what can i do?!?!
mmmm me like alot. shame there rubbin any chance u can get bigger spacers or just get the same wheels specific for your car
This is going to sound really stupid but if I dont ask then I wont learn... why are they rubbing?
hmmm where've i seen them before :rolleyes:
they look mint gary
might go an clean mine now
there not specific for my car as they are a ford fitment but i gopt given spacers for it so they should fit. i rang wheelworx guy lastnite (at 9.30) and he said its happened on 1 quiksilver in the past and he's sendin me 3mm shims which should sort, and the guys on PGAC sum said thats what i will need anyway so hopefully itll be sorted
I still dont understand

Ohhh. I understand now. I didnt realise that things like that had to be done if your getting wheels from a certain car to fit another.
Thanks Ben
heres a couple of pics with me new wheels on finally, hope u like because i certainly do, just duno wot to do next now
oh an new smoothed bumber
Very slick, I think you should get tints next
Gary, 3 words... God Damn Sexy!
thats spot on gary looks fantastic!
how about a small spoiler maybe? de-badge the quicksilver bit off the side.
have you put the standard rear lights back on to??
I see your bumper had been flattened where the pug badge used to go, Why did u get the wrong rims, Why didnt u get 106 fit rims.Have u sorted the scrubbage.That is one mint 106 mate. I reckon a nice spoiler and a 206 vent wud sort u out perfect mate
yep standard rear lights on now looks in my opinion smoother and lexus are abit old hat, i wana take the quiksilver strips off the dorrs but not the badge off the side but not sure if it would leave a residue or not (the strips), and i aint sure about a spoiler either i want a GTI one but i want smooth so not sure, keep comments coming guys!
Heres an idea, colour code everything that is not silver and cut out the line in ur front bumpers hole.Leave a massive mouth itll be sweet
mesh that and get the b pillars done silver somehow, wot u fink m8
that car luks familiar. i think i may o seen that around???
te he.
the wheels you cant get in a pug offset so had to get ford 1s and spacers, everyone with a modified 106 has that bar took out so mines stayin to look different, i weana colour code everythin anyway next is either my bumpstrips colour coded and blended in like this
or this exhaust which is abit pricey really but sweet as
colour code the bumoer matey for sure, think you leave the exhaust for now r car doesnt look like it wud suit a loud exhaust, resemble you an ur ideas an car very much to misteradam, keep it up mate
just got new pics of me car so thought id post em up
very nice mate
great location to
whats next?!
looking sweet
just to let you know all the work on my car was done by auto motion, i can say it now that they're a sponsor, nd its all top notch at a rock bottom price!
stunning mate, next i think you should dehandle the doors and get a remote popping system, and also colour code the mirrors, i dont think you should colour code the bumpers though because the black breaks all the silver up and looks sweet.
keep it up
next for me are these baby headlights
what u all think?
I like them too
They are sweet and would set your car off a treat mate.
nice dude go for it, cheers for the bodyshop recomendation to went down there the other day seem like sound guys

That is the nicest rear end of a 106 ive ever seen. Its so euro!!!! get that exhaust mate and dont change ur rear bumper for love nor money!!!
Check out the piccie above showin off the headlights and i believe inside the grill lies an intercooler.That is no way a radiator. That car must be quick!!!!
thta car is a 106 gti TURBO yes turbo got approx 210 brake, and has been in a few mags, apparently the lad that owns it is super rich though and can afford anythin he wants but at least he's spent it wisely

whats euro about it? its just an exhaust and red tinted lights :rolleyes:
Its to the point,subtle and not too much.The way the exhaust hugs up and all the lines just flo'
I like it
thats like saying a car is so jap style because it has a jap sunstrip?
if the pug had a smoothed boot, colour coded strip removed then smoothed over, towing eye removed then that section meshed, rear wiper removed, exhausts hung so they sat the same each side, then i think it'd start to look euro?
still a sweet car none the less
gona leave the blendin for a while now its either new headlights or that and i want the lights! cars goin in to our very own automotion in a couple of weeks to get mirrors sprayed, handles done silver, 'quiky' strips off the doors and part of rear bumber re-sprayin were its gone flakey, great value from them again.
next three mods in this order....... new headlights, twin exhausts as on the yellow gti above, then bumbers blending..... little bits i.e. mesh, number plates etc in between all that
good stuff gary, make sure the exhausts sit the same eachside though not the way one of the ones on the yellow car is lower than the other
sweet, how much they set you back, easy to fit????
Very nice mate change the whole look of the front!
there lookin sweet
Nice mate
£220 they were which isnt too bad compared to morretes etc. and no they were a ***** to fit i couldnt get the front bumber off at all! heres a few more pics, they give off a rainbowish outline at night aswel
evil eyes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i like it
I love them too
What are your next plans?
like i said yesterday, very nice
have you got the bulbs for the middle lights yet?
nope aint got the bulbs yet duno when ill get round to it neither.
ive just saw my car from the gallery in the pics from the meet and it aint lookin its best.
so heres some better ones
right im in a dilemma AGAIN, i know im deffo getting my bumbers blended however what should coem first blended bumbers or twin exhaust and gti spoiler? whatll make it look better at the nationals??
bumpers?
exhaust?
zorts and spoiler matey!!
sorry to dissapoint gaz but its blended bumpers, bar out of the front bumper took out, colour code mirrors, take quiky strip off door, all getting done very shortly (booked in already)
hey here you go guys, new pics of my car fresh out of the bodyshop! im made up with the result apart from a slight colour difference but it is silver so quite hard to match. anyway, blended bumpstrips, de-barred bumper, colour coded handles, mirrors, new splitter, quiky stripss off the door, bumper re-meshed and recess re-done.
Looks very nice mate, very smooth!
filth mate looks the badgers nadgers, not to keen on the splitter but i love everythin else you must b minted for how fast ur gettin all this dun to ya car
looks fantastic
definetly worthy of going on the CW at any show i think
Looks nice mate, Good job! still lookin 2 get 1 very soon

Should defo get ur lexus lights back on or get some new l.e.d's or a 3d style. good work boss !
