Roj Posted March 6, 2014 Author Share Posted March 6, 2014 Break the mb3, I need a few panels for mine That'll probably be what I'll end up doing. I'd be lucky to get my £300 back if I sold it whole. Even I can think of things I could use Vultures are circling! Once Roj has another 21 posts and membership which I'm sure he will have by then! The vultures will be waiting a while. 20 now.

Let me know when you do mate, I might buy it off you. Need quite a few bits to be honest, so could break it myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MB3Matt Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 More than likely, been waiting for one this colour for about 6 months to swap my dented panels with. Sure I can wait another 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure I can wait another 12 I'll try to keep my panels dent-free then. Except the o/s front quarter, it has a nice dent on it from the previous owner.

Roj Posted March 10, 2014 Author Share Posted March 10, 2014 Alrighty! Time to get this project thread moving along with some mods and stuff. I went to pick up the MB6 on Saturday, as I was heading off to Santa Pod to celebrate Shafzzz's birthday on Sunday. Nothing like a long drive and some quarter miles to help you get reacquainted with a car. Like the MB3, the MB6 unfortunately had a sidelight bulb and a number plate bulb out, so I replaced both with LED items. Oh and the fogs work, despite being in the worst condition possible. More on that later. Met up with Shafz and headed to Santa Pod with some friends, then "accidentally" ended up parked side by side in the waiting queue. I won't be washing that souvenir off anytime soon. 19th car in the queue. We did 3 runs each, 2 of which were against each other. I ended up racing a 350Z on my second run, joys. My best was a 16.4, with budget tyres and the spare tyre still in the boot. Not bad? Also I was the only MB Civic there, representing. Just parked with some friends afterwards. Moving onto today, I decided to remove the broken old fogs and install the fogs I bought off Knight. I'm surprised they worked looking like that. Tada! Ready to attack the dark. Just need to get some CREE LED bulbs for them and it'll be like daytime all the time. I really do like the fly eyes tint and carbon wrapped surrounds. Although is the foglight supposed to stick out that far? WRCMB3 making an off road friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKH25 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Nice pics, sounds like a fun day, 16.4 sounds like a decent time, if it wasn't for the drop out of iabs 1st to 2nd I'm sure they'd be much quicker 1/4 mile sprinters. The fogs look like they're in the right place but because the surrounds have been adapted to fit them they don't look as neat as oem, hardly noticeable though.

Maybe I'll get a new/chipped ECU at some point and lower the IAB engage point. That should help. Ah I see. Yeah you hardly notice until you look closely anyway. I'm a little worried in case water gets in the gap but I suppose since the fog casing is plastic it shouldn't end up like my OEM fogs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shafzzz Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Hey man thanks for attending my birthday at Santa Pod! Was a fun weekend and was nice finally seeing the MB6.. and racing against you, very good races haha I'll post the pics up in my thread then you can steal the ones you want for yours! Fogs are a nice addition you just need some cree bulbs like mine. PS. It was foggy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
