  1. Picked up the rear lip today and when I saw the deck, I fell in love. This man has got a j here! Can't wait for the mods to start!
  2. people will love you when the snow comes, you will make a nice clean path behind you
  3. Just for reference too, found some old pics on when i started modifying my car....Shes come a long way!
  4. Sorry for the delay with updates, havent took many photos due to the weather and just being busy with work and uni. But i have got a couple of photos, of my backbox (which is too bloody loud) and my alloys. The wings, spoiler and seats, i havent got any at the moment but hopefully some to follow. If you go on the facebook page, you may have seen that in the new year my dad is getting a new car, so i will be having his 98 lude 2.2vti off him! So maybe a conversion or might sell it to get b18 for my mb2. Hope you enjoy.... I know it aint the best pic, but these are my 15" lenso alloys. Got a custom tip which i think looks class. Just need to raise it so its flush with the bumper.
  5. Cheers lads sorry ain't been on much due to work and uni. Got a few things planned and don't a few things when I've had a few spare minutes. I've fitted my cold air intake with the pipe out the bumper, also I've fitted my bumper quick release tabs on the side. To the interior I've bought a light up "dildo" gear stick which looks class at night. And is actually really good to drive with and my most recent addition is my half leather seasts which I put in today. All these mods will be posted in pictures tomorrow or asap, as need to get on my laptop. A few things I haven't installed or I am waiting on are as follows. I've got a mg ZR spoiler to be sprayed and put on, also black wing mirrors which need a fresh coat. And finally I've got a backbox to put on!!! So excited .

  15. Hello everyone, put this off for sometime as wanted to get a few things done and sorted before starting this thread.Where to start, well I bought my Mb2 nearly two years ago from a neighbour who was going to part exchange the car in so had it for £200 bargain really as they're an elderly couple and had the car from new,garaged it and only had 65k on the clock. After I bought her and the keys were handed over, that's where the fun started!First thing I did was buy some his lights which made a big difference, they are some Chinese brand but have been on 2 years now. Next was some fogs with another hid kit on, I just couldn't justify paying prices of the second hand fogs for the car. After saving up some more I bought some 17" alloys which I have just taken off due to hopefully getting some 15" BBS ones. After that I thought to take some attention to under the hood. A induction kit has been added which just made it sound meatier, not so sure about performance. Then got a few bargains. Bought a front and rear brace both for £10! Tried to make the back brace look as pretty as I could by cutting part of the carpet out the back , as I'm not the best at making things look neat Biggest and the best mod I've done has got to be my coilovers got them off Matt who's Mb sadly died.Along when purchasing his coilovers I also bought blacked out headlights and his black grill..all this was great and Matt is such a top lad! All that fitted and she is looking mighty fine. Then I made a trip to to get a silver vti-s kit which set me back £60! I know what a bargain! The bad points which I've finally got the ball rolling are the back arches, for some reason even though the couple who owned KT before garaged her , the arches are eaten away so getting those sorted in the upcoming months.and finally slight paint flaking on my back bumper but all in all everything else is rosey. Could anyone give me some ideas for some engine mods? I have been thinking of a swap but don't know if worth it? Let me know !!! Thanks and will try and update as often as possible
  16. Hi didn't want to make a new post as I thought this would fit in...my fob works but only close to the car , do you think it's worth changing the battery for some range as I get that close at the moment I may as well use my key lol.
  17. appolgies for not replying, i forgot my password and couldnt get on here for ages, thanks though for the replies since this done a few bits and bobs but came across a problem when lowering my car on springs as the back is a lot lower than the front so looking for some coilovers, any ideas ?
  18. Hi people, wondering if you could help me. Ive got some spare money and wanting some coilovers, ive seen people with the ebay ones and just wondering your thoughts on them. Also i am unsure which ones will fit so a link to the ones that would fit my mb2 would be much appreciated. Cheers Ben
  19. Hi everyone, need some advice as got some spare cash and want to do some mod's to my civic , mods to the look and mainly power. I would like some advice on what exhaust back box i could fit, lowering springs that would fit about 40mm and any others you can think of. Ive already installed , induction kit, strut brace, H.I.D lights etc. Looking forward to your replies, Thanks Ben
