#62: Re: NIMMINZ' 1.4 8v PROJECT (updated 14th April) Author: Nimminz, Location: Durham, NE England, UKPosted: Mon Apr 19, 2010 4:28 pm ---- i'll grab you a photo when i get the car back. Still in the garage getting clutch sorted.
sounds best right up there even though its least effective.
how mch does a set of 205 speedlines usualy go for?your would look kinda sweet on mine with some spacers..
i currently have some scirocos and dont really like them.. 205 alloys seem the cheapest option.. and they dont look too bad sprayed...
#64: Re: NIMMINZ' 1.4 8v PROJECT (updated 14th April) Author: Nimminz, Location: Durham, NE England, UKPosted: Tue Apr 20, 2010 10:20 am ---- i got mine for £100 with tyres, quite badly curbed though. As you said before, borbets would look cool but very expensive i think. Still not got the car back
#65: Re: NIMMINZ' 1.4 8v PROJECT (updated 14th April) Author: vikro, Location: londonPosted: Wed Apr 21, 2010 9:17 am ---- yeh.. borbets do look awsome.. was also thinking of some modern lines...
thing is i like the whole 7.5j front and 9j back thing...
saw an old school golf the other day woth some borbets... looked well nice
#66: Re: NIMMINZ' 1.4 8v PROJECT (updated 14th April) Author: Nimminz, Location: Durham, NE England, UKPosted: Mon Apr 26, 2010 1:42 pm ---- Vikro - i'll see if i can get you a picture tonight.
Well, this is about as far as this car will be going under my ownership. I'll be geting a new car within the next month. My little brother will probably be having this one off me when he passes his test so you may see it again.
Now i'm going to start selling bits off and returning it more or less to standard for him to have a blank canvass so to speak.
Definately going for a MK4 Astra if i can find a good one. when't and drive one on saturday and was quite impressed.
Thanks for all the comments etc.

#70: Re: NIMMINZ' 1.4 project - DONE!!! Author: Mike_XS, Location: SouthamptonPosted: Thu May 06, 2010 2:59 pm ---- I was thinking of doing the ipod dock, but it would of been for my iPhone, but i think its too big to fit where the ashtray is
#71: Re: NIMMINZ' 1.4 project - DONE!!! Author: vanman_foci, Location: Barry, South WalesPosted: Thu May 06, 2010 3:32 pm ---- ok so are your middle bulbs the h7 SMD? and is it a blue light or white?
#72: Re: NIMMINZ' 1.4 project - DONE!!! Author: freestylejamie, Location: East LondonPosted: Thu May 06, 2010 3:39 pm ---- did u spray them seats that colour or was it a full re trim?
#73: Re: NIMMINZ' 1.4 project - DONE!!! Author: freestylejamie, Location: East LondonPosted: Thu May 06, 2010 3:43 pm ---- also look at these would suit your car perfect
#74: Re: NIMMINZ' 1.4 project - DONE!!! Author: Nimminz, Location: Durham, NE England, UKPosted: Thu May 06, 2010 4:16 pm ---- IPhone would fit i'm sure
Yeah middle bulbs were the H7 SMD LED's, Was a white light with a hint of blue but they were dimmer than my standard sidelights.
HDi Interior, swapped all the seats and front doorcards, only bit i sprayed was the fabric in the panels in the back.
Aye those seats would be nice but as i said in my PM to gav, i'm changing it for an astra soon so no real point, and i'm skint
#75: Re: NIMMINZ' 1.4 project - DONE!!! Author: Nimminz, Location: Durham, NE England, UKPosted: Tue Jun 01, 2010 5:42 am ---- ok, even though i've had enough of this car i can't resist doing more mods, so since my last update i've done the following:
Sprayed inside the rear arches black
Sprayed under the sills black
Got carbon fibre effect vinyl 'peugeot' and the lion on the sunstrip
Hammerite'd the edges of the brake disks black and the rear drums
Started painting the rocker cover black
Refurbished the space saver wheel cage
Temporarily fitted the air/fuel ratio guage
Temporarily retrimmed the glovebox in black leatherette to match interior
lol quite a bit for someone who's looking to change cars
