Kaleverada Posted November 19, 2022 Author Share Posted November 19, 2022 Cheers man, brace was a bit of a pig to fit had to ‘move’ the aircon pipes a little bit, it’s on though. Gonna have it back off at some point to clean it up and polish it. I would say it was just the handbrake and not my fault at all but it happened with my old car twice and the neighbours car took a ramming on each occasion. I blame the hill, and the handbrake, definitely not me! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_broon Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 I worry when I need to leave my car on a hill. Always leave it in gear but still don't trust it Hope you get it sorted out okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaleverada Posted March 9, 2023 Author Share Posted March 9, 2023 Recently been able to find some vti-s front and rear lips for the car which I’m repairing and painting. Wondered if anyone knew about the side skirts? Given up trying to find actual vti-s ones and probably gonna settle for the mg zs one’s instead. Anyone know if there are a year specific fit or not? Is it the zs 180 I should be looking at for them? Also had a nice little track day at cadwell a few weeks back, slowest car there by far but managed a few overtakes and held off a few through corners, managed a staggering 85mph on the straight! well and truly cooked the brakes, tyres held up well though just waiting to buy a few photos from the day. Went with a mate who took his ep3, gotta say, even though that was loads faster the mb handled better. Decided to do everything possible handling wise to it during the next year or so and save up for a b18 swap or something along the lines. Appreciate any help with the side skirt query though! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the interior was advertised on Facebook marketplace, paid next to nothing for everything but I think I got really lucky with it, the armrest and centre console are in mint condition and I’ve seen them go for £150 upwards so I must have done well. Best bet is to check Facebook or eBay, people are always breaking them so you might see something soon if that’s what you’re after 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaleverada Posted March 28, 2023 Author Share Posted March 28, 2023 Got the front and rear splitters ready to be fitted when I have time off work again. Front one had come off a car that had had a bit of a front end drama and needed a fair bit of fibreglass and filler. Used plastidip instead of paint also Had to try and remake one of the tips out of filler as there was nothing left of it after its date with whatever it hit. Came out quite well I think. There were a couple of big cracks right through on one side, literally nearly ripped completely, fibreglass has done it well anyway can’t tell it was ever bad. Also, the rear splitter has a piece cut out of the middle for a tow bar by its previous owner. Not my choice but that’s why I paid 30 quid for it so I can’t complain. I have a rear tow hook that fits nicely through it so it’s even less of a problem. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
