Yer we keep getting sunny spells so hopefully i catch one to get a few pictures.

Basically after spraying them up Just lined them up on car and drilled the holes. I had help from my dad as it is much easier with 2 people. Also did a line of silicon behind the skirt to help keep it tight. Bit of grease or something, my dad put in the drilled holes to help stop rust and that about it. Was a good chance to check the sills aswell, good to say mine are basically intact. Also fitted some mudflaps which need abit of fiddling with skirts on but that nought. Hope it helps abit, anything else just ask mate.

It isnt. It is sprayed red on the rear of the skirt to make a good finish. Also it is pretty tight so that you dont get a black gap. Thanks again for them :)

Looks good with the full kit :)

But can't help but think it would look so much better with the black bumpers rather than colour coded :-?

That was one of my doubts, but i feel for my car colour coded is better. Black bumpers just didnt seem right, didnt flow. :(

Lol i not folking out for more paint to find out i dont like them, to then repaint them. Wasteof money in my opinion. Not saying cars dont looks good with black bumpers because i like your car. But would rather be unique to me :D

BTW cheers for you comments guys, like reading them

Postby singlecharge on Sat Jun 20, 2009 4:00 pm

Went to scrappy today and i must say dont see why i havn't being before. Got myself a new ariel after some bobbing nicked it. Also got some turret covers for in the boot as didnt want paintwork getting scratched. Aswell as these i got a mk4 rear windscreen wiper, after reading a post on here. All this for just £7 :D Think i will be popping back sometime soon :)

Pictures 8)

Before

After

Boot Turrets

Everyone has seen a ariel but o well :lol:
Image

Thats the update, thanks for looking
Future plans include Interior and ice changes, with sub install in boot, Exterior, side mirrors colour coded. K&N filter on the way and hopefully some comforts like eletric boot release.
Thinking spraying the rear windscreen wiper red any thoughts?

comments welcome
