[Cannon]

Right so moving on

Got a phone call from my bodyshop guy saying that he was going to start up his own business and he was looking to sponsor a car, and as he was familiar with mine he would liek to use my car, told me all labour was free and just needed me to pay for the reduced rates on paint and parts etc, so jumped at the chance, was happy with the car how it looked, BUT have always wanted a wide arch car and some seriously dishy wheels..

so spoke with replikit and they also said they would happily sponsor me for a wide arch project, but wanted 1600quid +vat for me to drive up and them to fit the kit, but no smoothing and just bolt it on. i said no thanks and spoke to EP where Leon was great help and sourced me a BN style Blister Kit

i know its not to alot of peoples tastes and alot of people are all about the stock look, but hey, its my motor and its the only time i will have an oppurtunity to do something like this as im 23 and just graduating uni.

So took delivery of my rediculously large bodykit on thursday






And set to work on stripping my car to stock to help out with the speed

[Cannon]

started sourcing some bits and bobs for the kit while its in the shop

and have also found my new wheels and ordered them from japan, so awaiting delivery from these chunks of metal

50mm spacers and some Indicators for the BN kit



and new rims

[Quail]

I wondered who was going to buy those wheels!

[Cannon]

and popped to the bodyshop to check up on the progress of the car, pretty chuffed, windows are coming out 1st thing in the morning and the rear arches will be getting cut and sealed tomorrow afternoon, whole car is up on ramps and wings are fitted and stock bodywork is stripped including interior

[Cannon]

I wondered who was going to buy those wheels!

lets just say they were a steal

Should be an interesting project mate and it seems to be moving quickly!


Cheers Aj

hahahah TOO SLOW!!!!

errr for you i will do it for a quid, u no my housemate works at wightlink yea. lol

[lewys14a]

Cool sounds like your doing it right

Just make sure them arch's are full up with wheel as on the above car i think the wheels just fall shy of the mark IMO

Them offsets and sizes on the wheels posted are imense

I have a feeling hovercraft will come back but the BN is easily the best looking one

[NickS13]

errr for you i will do it for a quid, u no my housemate works at wightlink yea. lol

well why dont we get to see some of you mainland boys a bit more then?
