dinochips Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 The time has come to start my project thread, I now have enough work done on the car to keep this thread going for a while.I bought this mb6 from the user Nickrueth as he was a close friend of mine and i didnt want to see his pride and joy vanish plus like most freaking love the sound of VTEC.here is a list of mods on the car:17" team dynamic rimstegiwa induction kitslammed on coiloverssupersprint straight through pipepowerflow backbox (raspey as hell)de chromedhorn degayedcustom made angel eye headlightsrear upper strut braceMG zs spoilerarches rolledJDM tow hookpolice blue strobes behind grill MG cup holderShort Shifteri am sure the list will go on and hopefully will be able to show you all the mods in the this thread.ENJOYSo the first thing i had to change was the suspension as it wasnt fitted correctly the springs had been fitted back to front so was a easy fix.here is your first photo of the car and how it sits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinochips Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 so here is the MGzs spoiler added, i sprayed it matte black to blend in with the trim and i thought it looked amazing. helps make the rear of the car look so much more aggressive.

dinochips Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 So i better start showing the process of how i made the angel eyes hope you all enjoy guys and girls started with buying a new set of headlights found on ebay for £30 which i pulled apart straight away.Keep in mind i have also already purchased a projector kit, HID kit, LED angel eye ring and HID harness all from china so in all took me over two months to make these bloody things The LED rings lights where the next item to arrive.I took my headlight bit to work with me and on my lunch started to sand back the chrome so it can be sprayed.

dinochips Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 Projectors and HID arrived and then the fun really began I glued in a red LED into the bulb (make sure the LED has a resistor on) to give the projectors a demon eye effect in low lightThe projector kit also came with these chrome shrouds which i had to modify to fit my LED rings to. BEFOREDURINGIm lucky that in my line of work i have use of a laser cutter so i was able to cut out some support rings to help hold on the LED ringAFTER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dinochips Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 Anyway back to the angel eyes.Once I had made sure the projectors would fit I was able to go onto the next stage. I started vac forming the headlights with the projectors in to make a nice cover.This was a very difficult process to do as i went through alot of vivac trying to get a even shape between the two headlight and after my 6 attempt i decided to adapt what i had as the straight from the heat and presure started to crack the original housing. Some failed attempts Quick test fit to make sure the front plate fits over. it did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
