some little fude packing, no life, no teeth, no sense c**t decided to graffiti on my wing, its pretty awesome graffiti, im glad they ruined something that took me fooking hours to do, i left it round the corner from work, and in broad daylight, nothings fudgekin sacred any more

and right sides de striped for colour coding too...


phat camber



and this brand new tyre, not dont 500 miles...


still unsure about what engine im going to go for, theres so many to choose, and loads of my mates want me to go with a puma lump, but i dunno im on the lookout for a like engine, that i can just get right in there
saying this, is there any difference between a silvertop and blacktop zs engine?

[Michael!]

Where were you fraggle, waited in the rain in my best dress


Starting stripping the c**t today, back seats out andd a few other interior bits, going to get the engine out Thursday, might not be as bad as first suspected, sourced a blacktop anyway

I'll get some pictures up of progress when there is some haha!

[knuckles]

your tyre is worn on one side down to your tracking fella.
have u had it re tracked since fitting the new track rod end ?

regards to wing ... im guessing they bolt on with zetec s ?
if so unbolt it get all stickers off and take it to a fairly good street sprayer. they will proberly paint it for £65 - £80 for a good job inc baking it on.

Welded, However this one may have only been bolted when they changed it, I suppose...

[Michael!]

yeh i only bolted this on because i knew it wouldnt be permanent
its safe though

cracking list mate, should sort it out and some!

if you want my advice leave it off the road till you done msot of that list, or it wont get done, in my experience atleast lol

like you said work and college aint "too" far of a commute, cycling 6.5miles to college aint the worst thing for your health

[Michael!]

Well I've cancelled my insurance and cashed in my tax

It'll be in the garage until at least august I think... I've planned it that way anyway haha, we'll just have to see how it goes.

Hopefully my next update will include some real progress

[Michael!]

what about these ideas, bit different for a zs....

[Ratspeed]

The stripes look s**t but my old white rs rims ended up on a blue zetec s. a puma powered one i think.
Could even be my old wheels!

[Michael!]

I used a picture of your si-alike and shopped them
Onto mine hah!

[Ratspeed]

I used a picture of your si-alike and shopped them

So i was kinda right! they are my old ones!

[jonyb4]

lol come on dozens of Zetec s's have the mk6 RS2k wheels

chris zs on fsi uses white ones on his silver zs

[Michael!]

He's on zsoc as well...

I knoW! Was just curious undecided on a colour yet, or whether they're even staying!

[Michael!]

giong to try my hand at making it matte black, going to do the stickered wing today, see if i like it, iff i do, it'll be all going matte black, with pink colour coded parts underbonnet/brakes well maybe not pink, im going to do some photoshopping later

[leighk2010]

get it done

[Michael!]

Reckon it'll look good?

[leighk2010]

one above l ooks mint im going matt white on mine

[Michael!]

Didn't see those before, my phones s**t!

That settles it

Matte black it is

[mada01]

thats not matt black,

if im correct that one was done in satin black

[leighk2010]

w hat is the diffrence between satin and matt

[jonyb4]

nah that above is way to flat and dull to be satin, satin shimmers slightly


i cant stand some cars done in matt/satin
ruins a good car imo


and unless you sand it smooth for hours, its quite unreversable too

[Michael!]

I'm sure if I f**cked it up, a good bodyshop could put it back to panther black

[hb69]

Do it Matt black

[Michael!]

Already done my bumper I'll get a picture up tomorrow! And I'm doing the stickered wing tomorrow!

[Michael!]

right soooooo,
ive bought many parts these include... bottom arms, rod ends, back lights, rear strut brace and some new tools... the list is actually mahoosive

and because i like to do things before i think about them rationally my front bumper is now matte black! picturezzzzz >




i love it! and im sure some will be glad to see this go too...




the wings following suit and going black tomorrow :D:D:D:D:D:D
im sure you can tell that i am moar than please with this

also may have found a blacktop close to home, next update will be: subframe off and painted and cleaning my interior

[fezza89]

do it in chalk board paint

[Michael!]

had thought about that
maybe a rear quarter

[pjdj1989]

Should have done it in satin! Sure it'll look reet when its all done, just matt black zs' are getting well common!

All you need to do now is buy markogden's zetec se and you'll be well on your way!
