#1: Callum's Project *UPDATE Red Alloys* Author: Callum206, Location: West SussexPosted: Mon Apr 18, 2011 3:44 am ---- This is my project thread i still have a lot of plans for the car just waiting on funds all the time but will keep you all posted in here At the start the car looked like this (Below) Im going be honest i didn't enjoy digging up these pictures they make me cringe.
Then i went on to colour code my car and get a new exhaust exhaust system these 2 pictures were taken on the trip back from Coventry after seeing Teebag who CC'd the strips.
Then came probably my most exciting modification LOWERING ! I bought some Spax Rsx coilovers and rear shocks which are still on the car now. I took it to Edge Performance in Aldershot and let them work their magic went back to pick it up later that day the front end had been dropped by 60mm-65mm and the back had been taken down 75mm-80mm.
This was taken a few months back you can see the changes that have taken place up till here and in the next picture you will see what difference a few things give to the car ie spoiler.
This is more or less how the car sits today, with a few minor changes. Yesterday i removed the outer door pillars which i think made a massive improvement to the image of the car, as i like to think the less tacky plastic the better i also have a Carbon Fibre bonnet on the car now.
Main Modifications thus far include:
-Custom Exhuast System by Edge Performance.
-Lowered on Coilovers 60mm Front, 80mm Rear.
-Rear 3 Windows Tinted by Edge Performance.
-Colour Coded Bump Strips.
-17"O.Z Gemini Alloys w/ Hancook High Performance Tyres.
-Carbon Fibre Bonnet.
-GTI Spoiler.
-Small ICE Install.
(and others)
[size=18][color=red]CURRENT CHECK LIST !
Incomplete Tasts
- Re-Paint rear bumper trim
- Aero Wipers
- Repair Rear bumper
- Change Rear Lights
- Order Pressed plates
- Badge-less Front Last edited by Callum206 on Wed Jul 20, 2011 7:40 am; edited 15 times in total

#3: Re: Callum's 'Bullet' Project *Starting Again* (PIC HEAVY) Author: Danw_VVT, Location: Herts/LondonPosted: Mon Apr 18, 2011 3:50 am ---- i think mask front lights and fogs and tint rears. to go with the limo tints
Fair enough a lot of people say that but the way i look at it im not going anywhere fast in my 1.4 anyway so what harm can it do
#5: Re: Callum's 'Bullet' Project *Starting Again* (PIC HEAVY) Author: Jay794, Location: Sheffield/Chesterfield/DronfieldPosted: Mon Apr 18, 2011 4:07 am ---- I think the back end needs raising up slightly. ATM it just looks like you've put some weights in the boot

As i said its not to everyones taste but i do agree in many ways especially if people saw my car that didn't have a clue about cars they'd think my suspension was broken and with the bangs and scrapes it sounds like it too. Im contemplating getting ti changed when i get round to getting new alloys.
#7: Re: Callum's 'Bullet' Project *Starting Again* (PIC HEAVY) Author: Callum206, Location: West SussexPosted: Mon Apr 18, 2011 4:45 am ---- These pictures were taken yesterday when i was blitzing my car getting out every little scratch, And You can see the before and after of removing the door pillars.

#8: Re: Callum's 'Bullet' Project *Starting Again* (PIC HEAVY) Author: rudebwoi93, Location: LondonPosted: Mon Apr 18, 2011 4:55 am ---- Looks awesome! I think, masked valeos or some other 'darker' headlight would set that off nicely! - Not a huge fan of the CF Bonnet tbh nor the degree of lowering at the back, but that's all just personal preference =]
#9: Re: Callum's 'Bullet' Project *Starting Again* (PIC HEAVY) Author: Whirly, Location: SheffieldPosted: Mon Apr 18, 2011 5:02 am ---- I love it mate,The stance is awesome. Some new alloys would finish it off

#20: Re: Callum's 'Bullet' Project *UPDATE* Author: juanfernandes, Location: LondonPosted: Wed Apr 27, 2011 4:50 pm ---- Liking the colour coded mirrors. Were they easy to do?
I thought about doing mine, but wasn't sure whether I would have to take them apart or whether paint would go between the gaps where it folds.

I thought about doing mine, but wasn't sure whether I would have to take them apart or whether paint would go between the gaps where it folds.
Tbh taking the mirrors off takes 5 mins if that, When i was spraying mine i hung them up so i could get all around the wing mirror otherwise its a hassle, but if you can do that its pretty easy and yeh it gets in all the gaps just mask the mirror up well. If your unsure on how to get the wing mirrors off just look at the how tos they are really helpful.

Only thing i dont like is the black centre caps on the wheels, would look better if they were red too but that's just my opinion. Like the CF bonnet to, how much did it cost?

Wheels are changing colour soon anyway, Purple or Maybe Blue.
And the CF Bonnet only cost me just over £100
