#1: Amy-v17 WIP thread (pic heavy) update page 4 Author: amy-v17, Location: Bury St Edmunds/Luton/BournemouthPosted: Mon Feb 08, 2010 6:36 am ---- I had one of these going before so thought I would restart it as I have a few plans in the pipelines
When I brought her
The I changed the Alloys
debadge & LED rear lights
Powerflow exhaust:
Angel eyes & chrome bonnet vent:
LED brake light & clear foglight:
Rear window tints:
Real carbon fibre mirror caps:
How she looks at the moment:
I could go on but then there would be a million pics lol anyways plans are:
I need a new bonnet or at least some bonnet repairs so thinking about debadging the front at the same time.
Car NEEDS lowering and it will get done lol, also have plans for a remap and front mounted intercooler
All comments welcome (sorry for the millions of pics i got carried away lol) Last edited by amy-v17 on Tue Apr 06, 2010 9:45 am; edited 1 time in total

#9: Re: Amy-v17 WIP thread (pic heavy) Author: amy-v17, Location: Bury St Edmunds/Luton/BournemouthPosted: Mon Feb 08, 2010 1:43 pm ---- Haha yeah they are, cheaper on tyres though haha it did put a little smile on my face
#10: Re: Amy-v17 WIP thread (pic heavy) Author: Cr4zYb0y, Location: SalisburyPosted: Mon Feb 08, 2010 1:45 pm ---- Tractor looking good Amy, not much changed since i seen it last..!
Haha yeah they are, cheaper on tyres though haha it did put a little smile on my face

yeah i know what you mean about the prices of tyres my 17's are killer and i get them cost price because im in the trade almost tempted to put the old 15's i have in the shed on haha
#12: Re: Amy-v17 WIP thread (pic heavy) Author: amy-v17, Location: Bury St Edmunds/Luton/BournemouthPosted: Tue Feb 09, 2010 3:54 am ---- Thanks Andy =\ lol, I dont think anything has changed since you last saw it to be honest lol.

#13: Re: Amy-v17 WIP thread (pic heavy) Author: Brian, Location: VVT Land, FifePosted: Tue Feb 09, 2010 5:45 am ---- Looking good Amy, those alloys don't look too chavvie either!
Where'd you get that powerflow zorst from? Does it make any difference to the 'tractor-like' sound?
Thinking about getting something like that for my little 1.4HDi !

#16: Re: Amy-v17 WIP thread (pic heavy) Author: amy-v17, Location: Bury St Edmunds/Luton/BournemouthPosted: Tue Feb 09, 2010 11:32 am ---- Thanks Brian
Alan, I got it fitted at a powerflow approved place where I live, it sounds better than it did before (you cant really see from those pics too well) but when I brought the car it already had an aftermarket exhaust...I will find a close up pic and you will see why I changed it lol! So not really sure how much difference it would make to the standard exhaust
and rttam....this saddens me I love your car lol
#17: Re: Amy-v17 WIP thread (pic heavy) Author: dan_206, Location: Bury St EdmundsPosted: Tue Feb 09, 2010 11:42 am ---- Lower!!! Lower!!! Lower!!! lol sorry had to say it, come on im wanting to see it lower and also with the sp arches if ya puttin them on
i may not yet it just seems like one big money pit at the moment and im not even getting chance to get out and enjoy it much with work but hopefully when the weather gets better il get out and enjoy plenty of long road trips and change my mind (planning to go to sussex in it in the spring there's lots of nice drving roads up there ) tbh iv wasted so much money on modifying cars over the years it would be cheaper to keep this whatever i buy to replace it id end up modding anyway
#20: Re: Amy-v17 WIP thread (pic heavy) Author: amy-v17, Location: Bury St Edmunds/Luton/BournemouthPosted: Tue Feb 09, 2010 5:36 pm ---- Oh Daz I knew you would notice your car nice fitting of the rear LED's as well I might add haha!
Shut up Dan....as stated project lowering is in motion...kinda lol!
And rttam, you know it makes sense to keep its, its beautiful, I will happily take it off your hands free of charge if it is that much hassel though

well plans for it are...lowering (should have been done today but had to go to work )
Front mounted intercooler
remap
then possibly 180 interior but other than that i think im done....toyed with the idea of smoothing the bonnet
#42: Re: Amy-v17 WIP thread (pic heavy) Author: KickedMonster, Location: Living in carPosted: Sun Feb 28, 2010 12:57 pm ---- pfft evo, i want her car . pefect dont know if we have any bikers on here but ill call an evo the 'big bike' syndrome, once you got it you wish you still had your nippy lil pug i had a 650cc bike and went back to a 125 because there more fun and nippy around town, i would say the same with the evo and pug speed isent everything unless u wona be in a ditch

As mentioned on page one, I needed a new bonnet, found a brilliant deal on one that was taken off a 55plate 206 (so would have been about the same age as my car) so went on a road trip (with my mum LOL) to collect it on Saturday will put before & after pics up in a bit
(oh and thanks to Lee for helping me understand the paintcodes )
