Cheers all, the only mod i've done is fit the alloys. The fella i bought it off didn't have the cash to spray up the kit after his mrs dropped a baby. He did have it on 17" Dezent rims but he wanted to keep them. It was an embarrassing drive back on 13" steelies lol!

You going to leave it two tone?
You could always spray the whole car black and give is a distinctive undercar glow and go robbing trucks with 2 identical cars. lol
Seriously, nice car such alot better refined than your old car. Could look really good with some tlc

LMAO! In that case you'd have to spray yours black too ax, it was three cars in the film lol. Gonna leave the kit for now, I don't think it looks too bad in black. I'll get a full respray when i can afford it.

Nice one for those pics AX, they look really well! Adam, funnily enough, that was the original plan, gone off the idea a bit now though. Might go lambo yellow and splash a bit more black and chrome about - black-to-chrome tints, black graphics etc

Cheers all, and thanks for all the effort Ax. I like the BTCC graphics but it's not an integra, and I'd hate to make it a replica touring car only to be beaten away from the lights by someone in a standard vts or summat lol. More ideas for colours are welcome, but i can see it being a few months before it gets sprayed as I have a fair bit of debt to pay off atm

Jim, looking good with the rims on now mate - how embarrassing it was being looked down upon by a little chav on the A55 as he couldn't take in the fact it was sitting of 13"'s.
Glad you got it sorted chap!

Got an alarm fitted on thursday, getting window closure units a week saturday so will link them up together. While it was in at the autosparks he also wired my subs and amp in, although it's looking like one of the subs have blown

Well it never went in for the window closure units, coz as you might've read I buckled two of the alloys in the fog on tuesday night. Been looking around and decided the cheapest good looking alloys I could find are these: Asia-Tec Shuriken in 17" with Hankook SP 401 tyres in 205/40/17. Decided to downgrade an inch eventually as the spray-on rubber that came on the 18s (35% profile ) was just too impractical. The fella's delivering them personally from huddersfield on monday night, what a guy!

Lol, won't be thinking about engines for a short while as I'm only 20 with 0ncb, and this engine has loadsa life in it yet. Thanks for the links though AX. It'll have a 1.8 integra engine eventually as they tune the best out of the honda engines and give best power/wieght apparently.
Rhys, I've got a full set of rims, not a pair lol. I'll be at the meet tomorrow night for anyone who wants to see the rims, otherwise I'll get some pics up asap.

My twin 10" sub box is up for sale if anyone wants it, and I'm on the lookout for a single 10" box coz this one weighs the car down and takes up too much of my boot. It's noticable how much slower the car is thanks to the lack of torque!

Two on the same side, hit something in the road and threw that side of the car in the air. They're getting repaired at the mo but I'm just gonna sell 'em on coz I can't fit bigger tyres on them and 35% profile is just impractical.
Don't fit your rsgt's to a rally car if they've already been repaired once, driving them hard on rough road is bound to make them buckle again.

Cheers mate, I quite like the contrasting kit too but won't be keeping it that way. Kinda reminds me of the cf kits you see on some american modded motors, but I think it'd look better all one colour.

Keeping in mind I ain't got an intercooler! It'd just be mesh in its place. I've had some sleep now and looking back at them I think it's between the spoon, bomber, drifter, and showoff 3.
Won't be buying for quite a while yet though, just window shopping really.

Spoon one fella,white car,carbon bonnet,black mesh in that bumper,swish,however,if u get a different bumper u have to take into account the skirts,they have to flow together,and imo,not many of those bumper will go with ur currrent skirts

Umm, maybe a tad now my bro's given me the money towards my half of the jeep. Was in a smash a couple of weeks ago, nothin serious but the other fellas insurance are taking ages to pay out. It's a hefty sum for me to pay but i need to to get the car back. Should be totally outta debt once i've been payed off.
I've decided I'm gonna lower it first and see how the front bumper looks then, i just don't think it looks sleek enough with the car being on stilts. If i still don't want it when i've lowered it i'll change it for one of the above ones before i get it sprayed. Should still all be done for the nationals, maybe with a few other choice mods too.

PX'd my astra in for it so wasn't too much. Had 18s on it but downgraded to 17s because of the impracticality. Not noticed a difference in speed though.

Finally got my sub and amp in tonight, just used an old jbl gt4 10" sub and a sealed box off ebay. Amp is toxic 500w, gives a nice bass boost which doesn't drown out the music, just how i like it Still got the other sub i had in the astra here but i think it's knackered, if anyone wants it they can have it for free.

You missed the one about the fella crashing into me head on with his Hilux. I'd had it back less than 12 hours since the repairs from that were completed when this happened! At least, like you say, I've had my 3 things. Hopefully now I can start modding properly!

like i have put in your poll, you would need the front splitter aswell to have that affect, dont get me wrong stunning bumper but the splitter really sets if off..

The front bumper's fitted now, not too impressed with the way it lines up with the bodywork but when the car goes in to get sprayed Martin said he'll jig it around and try to get it fitting better. Got some black projectors on their way over from the states atm, and before anyone mentions it they have an adjusting screw so they can be made legal for the UK roads lol. Also did an experiment with some cw stickers ealier today and I'm very pleased with the outcome.
Pics to follow...

I've decided it's getting a full respray in "burnt orange" or to put it simply - lambo orange Gonna do the same thing with the stickers when it's sprayed but like scoop said I'll probably put them on the skirts or possibly the bottom of the doors. These were just a practice really as it's getting sprayed sometime in the next two months. It WILL be done for the nationals!

Yeah, that'd be too chavvy. You'd be able to tell it was film if you were close enough to see the carbon effect. Maybe some layered black and silver graphics in that shape, same effect as the cw stickers

Yeah heard good things about them, but sprayforce owe me a couple of jobs so it's easier to get it done by them. Probs cheaper too. I know Aggy's a knob but they still did a good job on his car
