Looking good!
I do the same in my Clio, but the handles I wrapped in carbon.
its look better in black, I think I will do it too.


Was it difficult to paint the sun-visor?

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

That is some serious rear camber lol. 25mm up front ftw ;) 5mm ghettos at the rear unless you want hubcentrics for 10mm plus as the wheel doesn't sit properly on the disc otherwise :S

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

5mm rear, 15mm hubcentrics rubbed like f**k and my car is currently only on apex springs :S so hardly that low compared with some, not as low as yours but no doubt your camber will help.

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

The right rear rubbed alot more from what I recall, only when I accelerated hard or went over a bump.. so they had to come off. It also raped the paint on the inside on my arches so had to patch that up :S

Im very tempted to get some f1's when I get coilovers, not a great fan of the turinis that came on my car. Although would like to keep the f1's silver coz they look awesome! But I just sprayed up all my diamonds and badges graphite grey as the silver was doing my tits in :)

Looks even better with the cup spoiler dude ! Thats next on my list

cheers buddy, its amazing how something so small can finish off the rear so nicely!

Ye I know what you mean, tempted to sell mine and get some f1's as I need 4 tyres anyway which will put me back £300 :S Front are fine yeh but as im only on Apex lol springs its not exactly that low at the front but of course you can stiffen it up with coils :) The turn in is amazing with the extra width, I love em!

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Haha well I was inspecting it last night and there's no doubt about it I need 25mm upfront and the rear can't be more than 10 so Ill see what 5mm looks like on the rear today and see if it need more or not, also will be getting anti roll bar too :)

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Have you had the the car aligned since you've done the camber adjustments? I'm thing of of putting a shim either side on mine before I get spacers. Where did you get them from mate?
 
  BlackGold 182
Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Not yet I haven't mate, will get it done soon but I Wana get the spacers etc so I no have exactly how I want it to sit before alignment

And I got the shims from ktec mark, what degrees you gonna go for?

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Same. I had mine done when I first fitted coilovers, but I've changed my ride height since and want to get spacers so I will do it after it's all done.

Cheers, I'll have a look. Probs just have -1 either side.

looks good kieran, head liner came out well so did the trims. need to get round to doing the vans at some point.

axle sounds to be off centre slightly. amount ive done bushes on ive seen that. and mine was on the van. once sorted i managed 30mm spacer with rear sport brakes.

Update

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Love it except I think that the alloys are a little too small. Maybe the turini's of the trophy. However they're pricy. But Each to their own. :) other than that looks better than chocolate Ice cream on a summer's day. Lol at my crappy metaphor.

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Mark I bought lumix g3, don't no anything about cameras but I have heard good things about them

Thanks mate, wheels are small but means cheap tyres and better handling :)

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Update, car is booked in to have its centre silencer removed For 23rd :) can't wait to hear the difference!

Re: Kieran's Iceberg 172 Project

Yeaa mark Im running a decat too, so effectively it will be a straight through pipe from manifold to back box. But the decat and cat is simply interchangeable for mot time with 2 nuts and bolts

The decat made up to fit so that its interchangeable was £140 but that's cos it's so easy

Removing the silencer they have quoted £70-£100
