harveycafc Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 So first car and considering myself quite lucky looking at what some of my mates have! (corsa's, 206's etc) Absolutely love it and love doing things to it myself. This is what I've managed so far and I have a lot more planned for when the money is available! Military college takes up a lot of my time! Not sure why the photos have been compressed! First up was the little things... 1) Fix the power point 2) Fix the boot light 3) Aircon recharge 4) Sort the speaker rattle in the rear 5) Clearing the dealers stickets etc Then bought myself some new custom plates. Time then to sort my boring standard lights out. I ordered off of the internet so first to arrive was the sidelights. I went for a 6xLED and was so happy with the result. Before Before and after... + Then the final product. Next to arrive was the fogs Then with the main beams. I bought some and they gave me a greeny effect which I wasn't happy with at all. So with advice from the forum, I purchased some Osram's and I am happier now. Now having swapped my map light for a blue 6xLED, I chose to put some strips in the footwells (courtesy of trikidy on here) to brighten the car up . Pedals... Time to brighten up the boring, rusted callipers. 12 year old brother helping me out Finished Product LED number plate nights, but I'm not particularly happy. I would like brighter. This is it for now but plans for the future include... 1) Leather seats, ST bumpers/spoilers 2) Lower 3) Rear window tints, probably 35% 4) Upgraded Speakers 5) Steering wheel stereo control 6) Chrome detailing inside 7) New alloys I'll keep you updated, any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated!!

harveycafc Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 Rocker cover done, fairly straight forward. Ask for details or a how to. Probably do some similar colours around the bay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
