what do people think?
#2: Re: what do people think? Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:36 pm ---- Is that the non sport? I see what your trying to do was thinking of doing it myself when I can get hold of another bumper. Looks good
#3: Re: what do people think? Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:42 pm ---- nope, its sport with plate removed.
#4: Re: what do people think? Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:44 pm ---- had to extend grill aswell to cover up hole left from removing plate recess.
#5: Re: what do people think? Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:45 pm ---- Thought at first but the fog holes looked like a non sports I guess it's just my mind playing tricks haha. Post pics when it's fully done I'd really like to see it.
#6: Re: what do people think? Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:46 pm ---- got 1st coat of primer on it tonight, needs 2 or 3 small bits skimming with filler so will do that in morning, if weathers good will paint it tomorrow
#7: Re: what do people think? Author: DJ-, Location: UKPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:50 pm ---- Cool, how did you extend the grill?
#8: Re: what do people think? Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:52 pm ---- 2 grills, cut out the bit i didnt want and cut a replacement part off the other one, then plastic weld it all back together.... its a paint to do lol...... might get hold of 2 phz2 grills and do it again at some point lol.
#9: Re: what do people think? Author: DJ-, Location: UKPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:54 pm ---- Oh nice idea there!

#20: Re: what do people think? Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 5:22 pm ---- haha, they arrive tues dude.
#21: Re: what do people think? Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Sun Sep 19, 2010 9:15 am ---- so for those that are interested, heres todays work
all thats left is do is to wait for it to dry, needs a flat and polish (neighbour kindly desided to cut the grass as i was lacquering ), and spray the grill gloss black. fingers crossed have it all sprayed today and get it fitted tomorrow
#22: Re: what do people think? Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Sun Sep 19, 2010 1:03 pm ---- well, after taking that photo it then rained on my nice soft lacwuer and put loads of dents in it
i did, however, manage to get the grill sprayed black, and get the bumper fitted.
started to flat and polish it all to get dents and bits out but need to do it at work really as need some heavier duty equipment to get the best result (i know it will polish out as its had 3 heavy wet coats ;))
anyway, here's pics of it all fitted
#23: Re: what do people think? Author: Jonno, Location: Boston/Spalding LincsPosted: Sun Sep 19, 2010 1:10 pm ---- trouble is..it looks no different because of the plate..will look ace at shows if you take the front plate off though

#26: Re: what do people think? Author: 2Oh!6, Location: GloucesterPosted: Sun Sep 19, 2010 1:17 pm ---- Nowhere really? I'd suggest a GT bumper.
#27: Re: what do people think? Author: Jonno, Location: Boston/Spalding LincsPosted: Sun Sep 19, 2010 1:19 pm ---- or get a smaller plate that just fits on the bumper. I can't remember who it is on here, but he has a clio, with a smaller plate that doesnt overhang the bumper and looks ace
#28: Re: what do people think? Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Sun Sep 19, 2010 1:25 pm ---- Smaller plate is what I'm thinking.... probably pressed aswell. Police round here can be a pain which is why is on ATM.

#38: Re: what do people think? Author: jarvis483, Location: OldhamPosted: Mon Sep 20, 2010 12:41 pm ---- looking lovely your pug mate, never really liked the 5door model but yours does look pretty smart if you ask me. nice little touch that bumper. looks good.
just wondering, what sort of power are you getting from your 1.4 HDi ? i would love another diesel turbo. and 1.4 would be lovely on insurance!
#39: Re: what do people think? Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Mon Sep 20, 2010 2:45 pm ---- Needs a remap but after that am aiming for 120-130bhp. It shifts for a baby derv. Coilovers are setting loads ATM. They were down about 70mm when I fitted them, now sat nearer 80mm and still dropping lol. Raise it up in the morning.
#40: Re: what do people think? Author: jarvis483, Location: OldhamPosted: Mon Sep 20, 2010 4:04 pm ---- thats quite a power increase from the standard 68BHP then isnt it, ill go for a read through your thread. see what mods you have done. nice work though fella.
#41: Re: what do people think? Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Mon Sep 20, 2010 4:14 pm ---- yea it is a large increase lol. car's not quite as reliable as standard atm, but still having a few minor teething probs
need to raise coilovers backup a bit tomorrow, sits really low and scrapes when i go around a corner with a tiny bit of acceleration lol.
