What is Yours opinion about these external modifications?
#17: Re: Hobnob48 Cheap as chips 206 tidy up project Author: hobnob48, Posted: Tue Feb 15, 2011 9:56 am ---- What bumpers are you talking about? Any modifications can look good or bad. Its just what you feel about them that matters.
The mods you talk about sound good to me. I havent seen the additional arches. Are they the GT arches? If so I personaly am not a fan of them
#18: Re: Hobnob48 Cheap as chips 206 tidy up project Author: awirnok, Location: LithuaniaPosted: Tue Feb 15, 2011 10:11 am ---- Rear bumper like that -
Front bumper -
Arches -
Yes, I think that there are arches of GT model.
#19: Re: Hobnob48 Cheap as chips 206 tidy up project Author: hobnob48, Posted: Tue Feb 15, 2011 11:03 am ---- Front I think will look better. The rear doesnt look much different to what I have and like I said I am not a fan of the GT arches.
#20: Re: Hobnob48 Cheap as chips 206 tidy up project Author: hobnob48, Posted: Mon Feb 21, 2011 4:17 am ---- Right update for you all had a little fun with tortion bar on sunday and managed to get the back end dropped. Finished at like 9.30 in the evening so found me a car park and got a couple of snaps. (Yes there are 2 people in the back but it does not budge when they get out :D)
Doing the fronts tonight so expect an update tomorrow with some pics of the whole lot lowered
#21: Re: Hobnob48 Cheap as chips 206 tidy up project Author: MrZiggerz, Location: Milton KeynesPosted: Mon Feb 21, 2011 11:19 am ---- How low can you goooo lol
#22: Re: Hobnob48 Cheap as chips 206 tidy up project Author: hobnob48, Posted: Wed Feb 23, 2011 6:27 am ---- Lol not low enough for me.
Another update, just brought a bonnet and phase 2 boot strip for 80 quid from a black 180.
Going to collect them on Sat morning but still need to lower the front as I am driving with some serious reverse rake
#23: Re: Hobnob48 Cheap as chips 206 tidy up project Author: hobnob48, Posted: Wed Mar 02, 2011 7:56 am ---- Still not done the fronts but on the plus side bonnet is now on along with Ph2 strip on the boot. Also gotta raise the back a bit due to it being on bump stops and MOT due very soon

#25: Re: Hobnob48 Cheap as chips 206 tidy up project Update Pg2 Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Fri Mar 18, 2011 8:16 am ---- Good height on the back but bloody hell the front needs doing badly
#26: Re: Hobnob48 Cheap as chips 206 tidy up project Update Pg2 Author: hobnob48, Posted: Fri Mar 25, 2011 8:31 am ---- Fronts have finally been done but it hasnt gone down very much I think she needs a little helping hand to get lower
Also got an ashley back box off ebay a while back for the grand total of £40 posted. This is also fitted.
Saw a thread on here where someone has got the little map reading light and it made me want one so got one off ebay for £13 and fitted that too.
Swapped my freebie JVC for an Alpine the other day much better on the sound.
Now lastly my best b.uy so far is the GTI rear bumper for the grand total of £10. But I need to go and collect it still.
Pictures to follow at around 5 ish as I will get some when I get home from work.
P.S thanks for the comments glad you like it so far.
#27: Re: Hobnob48 Cheap as chips 206 tidy up project Update Pg2 Author: hobnob48, Posted: Mon Apr 04, 2011 2:37 am ---- Few snaps from the weekend. Got some more but need to get them on my account.

And what posessed you to drive into a river!? Lol

Yeah I know but its finding one. I got the rear bumper for £10. Like the title says its a cheap project lol.
Dont want to spend too much as its not that special for me.
Definatly need to get the front down. May look into coilovers.
Oh and its not a river.... I like to class it as a puddle and the answer to that is I dont know thought it may look cool haha.
