looking good mate, just had a quick scan through... what about, for something different, doing the roof black... would go well with the general theme imo... what tint are your front windows.. look really dark in one of the pics.... hopefully see it in person at a future meet

cheers

if you notice in the last picture, the bumper doesnt quite fit due to the forge front mount intercooler like yours not fitting 100% it seems to lean against the fog light housing!:(

but apart from that, both alloys look sweet

philsip the wheels do look alot better darker that sliver i dont no what the colour is theo when the sun hits them it looks like a brown colour.

the intercooler dont fit the best but i think iv made a half good job to try and line it up but was a pain to do plus the fog lights are the pre-face ones i had to chop so much out to fit the ic pipe past it i wil be goin for the SS IC soon theo when i go bigger power.
 
do i sense a hybrid thread picking up shortly lol!????

Go for it, its class, me and ashley will tell you how much fun it is! i had mine done in march time, theres a thread about it some where. I imagine its the equal to a 130 ibiza remapped like yours then remapped again lol, mines making a current 244bhp and 351.1 ib/ft on hub dyno's at torque tronixs in co. antrim

built it back together today renewed most of the clips and the sound deadin and put some more in the car aswel i also found 2 holes in the floor so had to get some plugs for them

i also broke my tc botton aswel so need a new one now :cry:
 
Snap

I had broke my traction control button 2 nights back lol! i went to turn the TCS off and the button sprung out after i pushed it! seems that the clips that hold it in have weakened, so im in need of a new button, looks like it will cost 3-5 quid at most?

also, are you going to the edition 38 car show this year?
