Right, going to have my cabriolet sprayed soon....i was going to put a Series 1 kit on, but numerous people on here have said not to.

What do you think?

 

idealy need to see a pic with the kit on

 

I think that would look really nice with the S1 kit on it.

 

as above i'm going to be doing the same to my s2 shortly it is a mod though suttle looks the bollocks not to out landish

 

I'd leave the kit off, the lines of that car are really clean and uncluttered.........it looks really good as it is. Personally if the car were mine I'd leave it.

 

it looks mega clean with no kit mate, i take it the stripe will be going? i think its looks great as it is.

but then it is your car and it is your choice......so get thinkin....lol

 

I've just realised a major flaw in my Poll

You can't answer that with yes or no

 

do it-it will look wicked

 

Check the "re-shells and replicas" album on the database & you will see how it *could* look if you kitted it out.

 

I just put a kit on my stratos silver mk3 3i in the resto section. I personally think it makes the car, but each to their own, if we all liked the same it would be boring.

 

Putting a kit on a car which is straight and not needing a paint imo is not worth it as the car looks good as it is.

Yes it will look better with a kit.

But How much money later

 

the standard clean look

 

Don't make it something it's not!

 

 

too late i think its already a turbo, but agree with keeping exterior looking standard

 

Thanks for the kind words EVERYONE, but, its not as mint as it looks it goes to prove how deceiving pictures are.

Its had poor spray work done in the past, the coach lines have been used to cheat, the drivers side line was removed and this became evident.

Plus the fact theres some nice key marks on the bonnet (many thanks to my ex ), and the drivers side wing has been replaced very poorly, (they left the top of the old wing on for some queer reason), and there are other scratches etc.

So its getting a full spray, and this is decision time.

Keep your opinions coming

 

what colour you going?

 

Well, either the same, OR i think that silver the 106's come in is quite nice. Its going to be engine out and doors off so there won't be any different colours visible

 

i think they look lovely with just a nice set of wheels and dropped a bit, wouldnt bother with kit, just my opinion, keep the standard look, too many series 1 reps about already

 

Turbo engine is fine but the sleeper look could be on the cards with this one, much better

 

wot bout the XR kit on it.... (not colour coded splitter etc)


either that or left with no kit!

 

What are those black objects currently on it in the picture then

Hmmmm i have to admit i do think it looks good now, one thing is for sure those rims will look awful with a S1 kit.

 

sorry my bad... i mean the 1 like on jans XR.... 16i kit!!!





id change wheels anyway...

 

Ahhh well, thats an RSi kit and not 3i then

Hmmm, i only bought those rims cos i got them for Ł100 with 4 brand new tyres, couldnt be missed, but they look better than i anticipated.

 

gd deal that...

yea... 16i kit go for that!

 

you mean the rs1600i front spoiler

 

yep...

16i rear spoiler will fit to won it???

 

yeah it will fit and looks good

 

Ive never paid any attention to an RSi rear spoiler. What does it look like? U sure it fits the cabby?

 

i was on about the front one did he say the back one

 

yea... i said put on both...

think it does....

have a look on pic of RS16i

 

look in 1600i sectioin of site....

as long as u fix it on tail gate it looks like it may do...


gd pic of it on thread bout '1600i on bike carbs'

 

No tailgate on a cabby, boot is tiny

 

wot i mean is... where it flaps up....

if rear end is same width and shape as that of 16i... the it shud fit... as long as u fix it to the boot lid... u with me???


get 1 and try id dry run... if dot fit... sel it on...

 

I'm pretty sure it wont the cabby boot is no where near the shape of a tailgate, its completely flat for one.

 

hmmmmmmmmm.... only thing to do is try 1 on then matey...

wud look fuckin rude if u cud get it to fit....

then only need front splitter and spray!!!
