matty1 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Oh I see, I didn't have to change the loom on me old car! I think if your doing a swap go h22 buddy! If you gotta do all that work then defo the h22. And as regards the wheels, stick them on eBay, some1 will have them, or try wheel whores!

marko Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Put some cheap tyres on the wheels get some matching part worns from your local tyre shop, you'll find your Gunna have to refurb them again after they're fitted (paint and laquer no matter how much laquer) are no substitute for a propper powder coat, I paid 150 for mine with two pretty new budget tyres and two say 50% worn potenzas on them. Also don't be forgetting you paid 100 for them with tyres, so either spend up on tyres and charge more or drop yOur price to reflect what they owe you minus the labour you put in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKH25 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I think you need to edit the post with the prices in mate as it might seem like you're trying to sell them on here.As for nobody buying them, you just have to be patient, Kryzs has just sold his and they've been up for months.

garyvtec Posted July 16, 2013 Author Share Posted July 16, 2013 Right so its been ages since i've done an update mainly due to the fact that funds have been tight at the minute so i havn't realy done much apart from the past 2 weeks or so. So iv just done a few things such as new HID's, led side bulbs, carbon wraped a few more bits n bobs, a couple of stickers that are most likely not too everyones taste but hey i like them lol. A new jvc cd/dvd head unit, new vibe black air 6x9s and components which sound great with the alpine type r sub. And a supersprint backbox complete with a DIY straight through from cat back . Oh and i passed mot thanks god Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds a bit more raspy now but not close to how loud id like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
