will do matey!

smithy20vt - we paid £700 for it but seem to be fetching around £12-£1500 up over from what weve actually seen.

noooooo please dont kill another mk1 by putting a mk2 front end on.

they look so much better mk 1 front with the GTe bumpers smoothed a touch!!

looks much better in paint, i miss my white nova so much seeing this...

 

i agree, dont gay it up by mk2ing it

 

I agree too

 

well we have just got a GTE back bumper, so thats getting prepped and painted in the next few days or so, decided to leave it as a GTE, too much work to change it to a mk2 and unneccessary expense.

Need the GTE boot vinyl or a bootlid in white if anyone knows of one cheap

 

I prefere mk2! is it running an anti roll bar on the front?

 

not sure mate tbh

a few pics of tonights work, we removed rear seat belts and under the back seat sound deadening, which has lost 5kgs. unfortunately forgot to take pics of the interior before we started stripping, blow torch managed to get it off pretty quick

Also removed back seat so will weigh that tomorrow, next job is to get some polycarbonate sheeting and get the rear windows done

a few progress pics....


















now need to crack on and get C pillar done as it looks dreadful

 

Cool little project.

Really like XE Novas still...

 

tonight we have painted the boot handle satin black to match the other plastics, will post a pic in a bit and update it again.

 

(we have) meaning you watched out of the window lol

 

no, i clayed the octavia while lee painted the boot handle

 

looking good...more pic's required tho

 

Been busy the past week or so, not got much done, but tonight fitted the newly painted rear bumper, it was only an aerosol job but it looks a lot better than the odd bumper look imo!







rest of car needs a good wash, its filthy!

The steelies that are on it i think look better than the cav slabs, it definitely suits black wheels, but Lee aint so keen, will have to see in a week or so, need to get tyres changed over as 205's are catching

Next job is to make sure its running spot on and then we are done, dont think we will have chance to get polycarbonate windows in, got 3 weekends til croft and only 1 free!

 

just to add, we know the SRi bootlid and spoiler look crap but dont really have time to find a vinyl to make it GTE style!

 

lookin good, seein as u were moaning no one replies, well I thought i'd prove u wrong haha!

 

Looks good on the black rims

 

aww your so kind davvy

Twins - i much prefer it on the black steels than the cav slabs, might leave them on

 

make sure you remove the front ARB and fit some lowering Tie Rod brackets makes them handle far better and also allows adjustment of the castor which will make them handle far better once adjusted towards the front, another sensible mod is fit a uprated rear engine rubber mount otherwise when driving the car hard it jumps outta gear

 

thanks for that, we dont have much free time to get stuff done atm, its only being used once for croft then being sold so will see what we can do

looking good... the bootlid vinyl will improve the look of the rear end loads i reckon

not keen on the black wheels though

 

i might just get some vinyl and have a go myself,only tricky bit will be the recess for number plate
