im thinking something different. not the norm

[trecoll]

Crackle black and red then

[hb69]

Pink? Lime green? Violet? Purple?

[EUFez]

It look's fudging awesome! You and i know what colour to paint them, be different!

[Dave G fsi]

Brakes are looking good mate!

Did you have to mod anything to fit them or was it just a straight swap?

it depends on the wheels you have really. mine have different angled spoke due to the type of wheel so i need to space them out at the moment. but i am trying to shave the caipers to fit

[M1K3Y_B]

If you want to be really different, you could paint them black and put a big yellow smiley face on them

[Minstral]

Slight update
brakes are now fully bedded in and are brilliant, so glad i did them. they were on nearly 3 weeks whilst i decided what colour to do them were a few varying opinons but thought i would try and be different, so here they are.




they are in flourescent orange. and they stand out really well and have only had good comments so far. i love the colour of it just thinking now about possibly doing some other small bits of the car in the same colour possibly.

what u think?

have also bought a set of harnesses as well will get some pics this week when they are fitted

[xr2irhys]

sell me your wheels

[dontpannic]

Photos don't do the colour justice mate! I saw it reflecting off the dish of your wheels!

[EUFez]

Thats an epic win mate! Love it...

Just what i was going to say

Toby, as i said to you at Thorpe doing other bits in flouresent would look good, but you would only get away with doing certain bits.

i was thinking like the base plates of the mirrors and possibly something else.
looked at that digimods today and did an awesome photoshopwhich has confirmed some plans i want done

[Sphinx]

Not sure how tricky this would be but hoooowww about....a flourescent orange pin stripe around the edge of the mirror base plates, about 4mm from edge?

how do u mean? on the actual door or around the very edge of the base plate, or slightly in of the edge.

im open to idea's

[Sphinx]

Instead of the entire mirror base plate being orange which I think would be too much, keep it black (maybe even smooth it and paint it satin black) but put a orange pin stripe around the edge of the mirror base plate; a 3-5mm pin stripe set about 3-5mm in from the very edge of the base plate.

[Minstral]

im thinking of painting the base plates satin black,probably not the whole thing.
as regards to the pinstripe so almost like a triangle all the way round it

[Sphinx]

I did only mean painting the base plate satin black, nothing else
But yeah, the stripe just keeps the orange theme going but not too in-your-face.

[Minstral]

sounds good mate, im probably going to do the baseplates satin black to break it up a bit then may ondsider some like that as well once its had the jobs done

[hb69]

I think it will start to look tacky if you do anything else in that orange

The rear needs to come down another 10mm too

Agree with that, just leave the orange detailing now. Can't wait to see this at Fordfair! Brakes must look so good...

Slam the damn thing at Fordfair.

would love to, i could go about a couple of mm but that would be it as it pysically cant otherwise the wheels will be on the arches. have to get the arches rolled if i was to go lower

Use some pliers to push the lip up, should give a bit more clearance

I'm sorry but that's a proper pikey way of doing it

Told you it was a good site

[Minstral]

Well after running with no rear arb since soon after fitp its good to finally get it back on so the rear doesnt step out all the time. i have got another one in the garage to go on at some point but am buying other bits so one will do for now

got a set of rear arb powerflex bushes brand new cheap off a member which arived the other day. also i thought as i had it off ill paint it as well, then as the car was in the air thought i would paint the rear beam as well.

[EUFez]

Looking good buddy, attention to detail is good!

This has got to be one of my favorite Si'

[hb69]

Fair play Toby, your doing it all properly

Those harnesses in yet?

[EUFez]

GIVE ME YOUR COILOVERS!

[Minstral]

one is yet to fit the passenger

[G-Muzzy]

how about towing eyes orange? and leave it at that

[Minstral]

is a possibliyty. ive seen something like sphinx was talking about with a bright orange strip running round the edge of eachmirror looks cool

[Minstral]

as some of you will have seen at ford fair i have a new addition to front bumper in the shape of a splitter.
its a mk3 golf cl splitter. ive not seen it done before which is what i wanted to do and i think it looks great, so even better. ive already had loads of people wanting to know what its off,plus makes it lower at the front scrappage

i took a few pics from santa pod when i had topark on the grass


i think it suits it really well and is sort of like the cossie splitter the way it sits

also i have a set of 4 point Luke harnesses in as well no pics as of yet. i wanted a set of mirrors all painted up for ford fair but the painters mucked it up big time so should have them back by end of the week as well. and ive just picked up a bargain on ebay so watch this space

also some people didnt believe that i had it written on my car but their you go, spot the cheeky sticker


let me no what u think

[Turboboy67]

Looks really good fella
