    Default Dale87 PROGRESS THREAD. At last!! (PIC HEAVY)

    Thought i'd better start one, been a busy bee

    Might as well start with day one, the day she arrived.


    SO after about 3 week i decided i wanted more power. So decided on a Thorney Motorsport Stage 2 upgrade, WHICH I ONLY HAVE HATE AND ILL FEELING FOR. WORST WASTE OF TWO GRAND THE PLANET HAS SEEN! HIGHLY RECOMMEND STAYING WELL CLEAR


    Thinking about getting the centre silencer taken out. Why not

    Took a few pictures of her, debadged, gloss black vinyl roof and tinted windows.






    Decided i didn't like the ride height so put her on Eibach Sportlines (Thanks to GraemeJ for supplying these)



    Then the Samco silicone hoses


    Small incident.


    Had the honeycomb sprayed gloss black while she was in the garage being repaired.


    And bonnet piston (Thanks to sxcarmyboi for this)



    Got the Fox FX400 !8' alloy (meant for the Astra but fits and sits in the arch nice)


    And lordylord kindly supplied me with the extended fin diffuser.


    Had the rear lights fly eyed (tinted).





    And finally came the VXRonline stickers and give her a good clean, clay, polish and wax so thanks for reading and ENJOY









    And one from Croft BTCC:

    Very Nice!

    Did you fit the arm that holds your bonnet open or do all the facelifts have these?

    also how much did you pay for your rear lights tinting?
