| Awesome how you decided to stick with standard non-sports front bumper grille, still looks very lean and mean! |
Well, if you're a fan of top gear. You may remember an episode where they were they mimic'd the front end of cars with their faces, here's peugeot....
I tried to minimise this by sticking to the standard non sport bumper;) I am replacing my bonnet grill with the SP version, I will be spraying it gloss black though.. Just waiting for some £££ to come my way:) Think I'll keep my honeycomb grill, though, looks nice I think! Unless I choose to go for a black mesh one, only time can tell.

My 4 channel amp stopped working after less than a week so I am getting it fixed/replaced and I am using a cheap £30 2 channel I had laying around to power my front speakers as I can't go a day without music.
Hopefully I will be back running the 4 channel and building my amp rack in no time! |
Ah, not so bad then seeing as they're replacing/repairing it:) joys of warranty! hence why I don't mind giving my system a proper beating as it's under warranty:) Can't wait to get my new kit in! Got some new rockford fosgates for the front, going to power them off my head unit as they're only 60w RMS and my head unit can do 50w to each speaker so should be alright.. Will look into an amp in the future though, so may need some help! well vary depending on what rear speakers I'll get as I'd want a 4 channel that can keep it all going:)

Cheers, Pal:) appreciate it!
so far I've got some Rockford Fosgate P1652-S (again) and I'm going to power it with a Rockford Fosgate Punch P500-4. Will be looking into another import job by the looks of it as they're hard to come by over here.. may look into R1525X2 for the rear... The amp and rear aren't set in stone yet, front speakers are already sitting with me at home though, haha:)

Coolest...boot...EVERR!! I pretty much just cut up a bit of aluminium, and put it over the other side of the tailgate meaning the hole won't ever leak water, etc. Then a bit of vinyl over the other side:) I tried "flat" glass grommets and a few others, but they all look horrid in my eyes.

Update time!!
Been awhile, and I apologise. Couldn't update the thread due to a dispute with another forum member. All's been resolved now. So posting is fine again:)
First up! I got a GTi-180 interior from a fellow member, Won't name any names. Appreciated the help. Got it to me quickly and made good chat about past cars, etc:) Sadly, the interior did get to me damaged. Mechanical leavers, etc, didn't work and such. We've resolved our problems and I've decided to stick with what I've got and repair it... Took me a week or two, but I've fixed everything wrong:) won't show any before's due to the nature of the problem. Don't want anyone getting caught out as a bad guy as it wasn't necessarily their fault.
Was like a late Christmas present seeing this!
New interior!
First seat in:)
old interior out!
some shots of the new interior in the car:)
rear, also show casing my fandabbydosey leather roof lining and colour coordinated insides! (opinions please!)
Rear seats! never knew a 180 was a 4 seater! rarely had 5 in my car anyhow, lil' 1.1 never liked it!
tailgate shot!
As well as a new interior, thought I'd add some foot well LED's! this isn't complete as of yet, but may as well show you what's been done so far!
fitting the LED strips under in the foot wells
what can only be considered the finest of jobs
result!
These LED's are remote controlled, allowing me to choose any colour, pink, purple, green, whatever, plus I can fade/dim, flash, pretty much anything. £20 off eBay:) got to solder both foot wells together so they work off the same remote, oh, and also be powered together as well. Going to hook them up to my interior light when I get a chance!
That's all for now, guys:) think I'll end it with a quick photo of myself driving my pride and joy!
