VIDS (update, 20vt and lowness)(RIDE HEIGHT NOW SET)

walshc · Post by **walshc** » Wed Feb 15, 2006 8:14 pm

Got there in the end

, ride height is set now so it only rubs a little and scrappes the everest speed bumps
What do you think? it will be going lower when i get the arches done and make a skidplate (proberly bout a year

)

Down pipes about an inch and a bit from the deck now

(notice the heat wrap the bumps ripped of for me)

Can someone please resize this to avater size please, my computer decided to unistall photoshop for me

What do you think of this? i think of it as like a signature off my work :-p (Check out the reflection

i look like a fookin Alien

)

Hmmm im guessing the indicators and rear light's aren't legal?

Engine mods are good though!

I cut the V out of one, then cut up another badge to extend the V to make the C, then used fibreglass on the underside to join them together and then i just used the resin to make a smooth finish on the top side, sanded down then wet and dry, primer and diamand black paint to finish

ive got some step by step pics if you want me to put them up?

hehe
same as mine then
my rear lights are non-reflective and my side repeaters are painted

only advice i can give is if you park your car on a street where theres lots of traffic.....try and find a streetlamp to park it under so people can see it

Any plans for the headlights?

ModifiedMadness · Post by **ModifiedMadness** » Fri Feb 17, 2006 8:34 pm

I think (for daytime use) you should get some headlight covers and black them out to match the indicators

Thanks again for the coments people

I thought about smoking some headlight covers, but i dont think i could be botherd putting them on and then taking them off again every day

Im going to do something with them tho just dont know yet

no idea how you'd go about it but possibly some sort of motorised covers? bit like old porsche headlights? only open when you turn the lights on?
