#2: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: L5_UKS, Location: West MidlandsPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 9:56 am ---- Looks very nice mate some badges missing off the back?
#3: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: brad-morris, Location: BromsgrovePosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 9:56 am ---- I like it ! any plans for it?
#4: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 9:57 am ---- The Peugeot badge will be going back on I think, I'm not a lover of debadging, and no plans yet the missus has banned me haha
#5: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 9:58 am ---- It's also got the same rear lights as the ones I sold of my silver gti lol

Yeah i like them better with the badges on too
#7: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 10:01 am ---- Will just remove them from my other car and stick them on this one

#11: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: Quarmbo, Location: Bristol & LeicesterPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 10:39 am ---- Looks good mate. Would have loved you to get the red one.
#12: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: Missy, Posted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 10:39 am ---- I like :]
#13: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 10:40 am ---- I know I quite liked the red one too but oh well this one will do for now
#14: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 10:43 am ---- Nice one Personally I think the debadging is perfect, if I had a 180 I would take every badge off except the 180 one.
#15: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 10:44 am ---- I prefer the badges mate, I also prefer the phase 1 bootstrip
#16: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: JamieM, Posted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 10:46 am ---- Looks nice mate, but as said the debadging is too much.
I'd put the Lion back on and 206 badge, forget the PEUGEOT badge , keep thiking of removing mine!
Also I'd get a powerflex exahaust bush before the exhaust breaks.
#17: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: xspongerx, Location: Newquay, CornwallPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 10:46 am ---- Love the car Good on you bro
#18: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 10:51 am ---- It will be a janspeed going on this one not a powerflow, the powerflow's look and sound nice but don't use mandrel bends so can restrict the airflow out the back, the standard one in at the min doesn't look too bad at the non but will need changing eventually

Which I have done lol, looks smarter than silver s**t stuck all over the car. Added 2 180 badges on the door pillars though..
I AM SO DISAPPOINTED IN YOU!! You should have gotten the red one haha! Still a smart car though, congrats
P.s, the janspeed exhaust is f*****g awesome.
#20: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 10:57 am ---- I know all about the janspeed je and thanks mate
#21: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: DJ-, Location: UKPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 11:03 am ---- Looks nice mate.
P.S. Jamie was going on about a Powerflex exhaust clamp not a powerflow system. The original backbox hangs low as you probably have seen now
#22: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 11:05 am ---- Oh right yeah it is hanging a bit low, where do you get powerflow clamps DJ?
#23: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: JamieM, Posted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 11:06 am ---- ^^
I'd opt for a Scorpion again over Janspeed myself (my Janspeed was already fitted, hate the tips, sounds alright though)
Can get them from Halfrauds, ebay ect!
Car looks nice though
#24: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 11:10 am ---- Cheers Jamie I'll have a look on eBay now, they don't need welding on do they?
#25: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: JE_180, Location: WiltshirePosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 11:14 am ---- Not that I know of...
#26: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: JamieM, Posted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 11:14 am ---- Nah they are rubbers, hopefully it's just the rubbers on your system that have given up the ghost so just need replacing.
When my old centre section broke it was because the rubber broke, the joint was then put under strain and snapped, had I have got a replacement rubber my backbox wouldn't have needed replacing.
#27: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 11:18 am ---- I've got new rubber mounts from my gti, are they the same on the 180
#28: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: JamieM, Posted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 11:22 am ---- Hmm doubbt it because the GTI 138 exhaust sits like the Janspeed iirc the 180 stock exhaust sits accross the width of the bumper.
#29: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 11:24 am ---- I'll have a look when it stops raining, nothing came up on eBay with the words powerflow exhaust clamp or mount
#30: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: DJ-, Location: UKPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 11:25 am ---- is it this? www.halfords.com/webap...yId_165660

#32: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: matt.handley, Location: kentPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 11:26 am ---- looks like a nice car mate, and it looks good with just the gti180 badge
#33: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 11:27 am ---- If it's them I'll pop to halfords tomorrow

Haha I do ignore her, I've got a wedding to pay for, I spent about £1300 on the gti from feb to the day I crashed trying to get it immaculate, she said if you buy this one will you please not do it up!!! So I said of course I won't, to be honest though she didn't know I'd put the bonnet vent on the last car until I sold it haha

Powerflex not Powerflow.
You'll need to go under your car and look for a rubber that looks like it's given way to find out which shape you need.
#36: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: pinxton_boy, Location: pinxton, nottsPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 11:40 am ---- nice car mate. when you do get round to getting it how you want it (with the weddin n wot not), i imagine it'll be one of the nicest 180's out there.
#37: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: -Dave-, Location: North ManchesterPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 11:42 am ---- Looking good.
#38: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 11:47 am ---- Haha powerflex lol that's why nothing was coming up, sorry Jamie I was quick reading and my brain read powerflow! Yeah I will have a look as the exhaust is sitting 2 inches lower than it should

#46: Re: Bit the bullet and bought the black 180! Author: JE_180, Location: WiltshirePosted: Fri Jun 17, 2011 2:34 pm ---- the 180 exhaust sits across the bumper yeah but the standard 180
rubbers sit fine on my Janspeed so i'd
give the gti mounts a try as mine doesn't even sit low or crooked at all
