laumk7 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I'm after minor molding my Titanium X again, had a few done before I picked the car up, now I'm at it again... What I've had done so far is as well as ticking most of the spec boxes, I've had my wheels painted white, had the ST valance attached at the back, and got the illuminated gear knob I'm not after modding the engine in any way btw What I'm thinking was shark fin aerial, but getting this professionally done as drilling holes I ain't....and we'll. ...I dunno what else so I'm after ideas really? What would you do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMX Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 On your centre console, what is the pink thing with paperclip on it, next to your aux power socket, behind your gear gaiter? I've been looking at that and can't work out what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dales Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Paint the upper and lower front grills gloss black and the fog light bezzles, Rear defuser too at the bottom of the rear bumper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laumk7 Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 It's got a ST valance and diffuser on it though, or is that what you meant? granted I forgot to add that in the photos - give us another sec ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dales Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Yes. Have you already painted the grills and rear diffuser gloss black. Hard to tell. Tell you what though, That is a really nice wee car you have the way it is. What about an exhaust system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laumk7 Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 No they're not painted (I don't think so anyway), they're as fitted before I picked up the car. Thank you for the compliments, I do like my car, it's somewhat unique(ish) to me Exhaust system is a good idea, but I'm not sure if it'd interfere with the ecoboost? Will it? I was considering a chromed sporty looking clamp on back tailpipe Before I picked up the car but the salesman put me off mentioning sawing through the original and so on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laumk7 Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 I'm thinking, and have posted in photoshopped threads accordingly, about the gloss black or maybe matching white surrounds? What does anyone think? Have you seen it done and did it look right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does anyone think? Have you seen it done and did it look right? Sometimes with white cars in my opinion. too many things colour coded to the white can become too much. where as if you done the surrounds black or even another colour, It breaks it up a little bit. I think the eco boost would be ok with an exhaust. Just have to tell the insurance company though. Just be careful with the modding bug though. Once you start, thats it. A big long road to spending all your money. I don't even want to think of how much I have spent on the ST. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m1tch Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Look to upgrade the non headlight bulbs to LEDs - I have found just changing things like the numberplate bulbs to LEDs has lifted my mk6 up a bit, looking to change the sidelights etc as well soon - small mod but makes a nice difference. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking very good and suit the car. "You know, you really should keep a personal log; why bore others needlessly?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAN@ADRIAN FLUX Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Hi, If you find you ever have any issues with your insurance for any of your modifications then please feel free to drop me a line. I'd be only too pleased to try and help. Regards, Dan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incontro Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Don't bother with LED sidelights IMO, they all start flickering after a while, and are a pain to replace. LED interior lights are worth doing though, as they're much easier to replace, and they seem to last much longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
