Rob_SRi Posted February 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 Whats the future plans rob Well I'm mid colour coding the grills and tinting side repeaters at the moment so i suppose that is next but I want to get the interior mint so I think will be clubsport gear knob and professionally sprayed piano black/saphire black trim.. xenon retrofit is definitely a must and possibly angel eyes with the whole fade up stuff on the key.. Then a wheel refurb probably the same colour.. Possibly a light anthracite..will have to have a play with photoshop.! 15mm spacers all round for some stance and some coilovers for lows Also as soon as my mate gets back from new Zealand it's off to his company detail UK for a full paint correction And as soon as I am well enough to drive it I will take it to John Ashley exhausts so he can take a look at it and maybe remove a mid box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob_SRi Posted March 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Il get some decent pics later with the SLR when I can face going out in the cold..! Going to see my consultant later so I will hopefully be rid of this sling and given a estimate of when I should be able to drive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keano Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 Thanks man They should be the same in facelift too these are the ones : PY21W / 581 Philips SilverVision / Silver Vision Silver Indicator Bulbs http://bit.ly/15iuC1i Cheers for that but just for info to others looking to do this, check your fitment as Facelift ones are different to the avove - or at least they are on mine - mine are a wedge fitment. My fault for not checking before ordering as I thought it was a headlight out job but it actually very easy to swap them.

Rob_SRi Posted March 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 No way sorry about that mate thought they were the same..! Sprayed a few bits on the exterior whilst the weathers been okay.. Both of these were faded horribly a touch of Matt black stove paint on the window mechs and some Halfords gloss on the lower grill.. Looks a million times better..! Some DSLR pics to follow.. New thermostat time too as the old one seems to be screwed! Car is running cold all of a sudden.. Must be stuck open..! Ordered this yesterday off the bay.. half the price of the stealers and seen it recommended on other forums.. Wahler part which is apparently OEM too..
