Hello

Sombody on scoobynet just told me about this website, so i thought i would post up the pictures that i took of my car today, i picked this 180 up last month and it was pretty rough around the edges, although its tidied up a treat with some paint and TLC

Now that i have got the thing looking reasonable, i thought i would take some decent pictures.


Work done so far

Fix both VIS motors (none were working)
Refurbish all 4 alloys (silver hammerite FTW)
Find and paint a front spoiler (was missing)
Paint front bumper (due to somebody clipping it)
Paint both sides of the car (due to spacker SMART repair jobs that were gash)
Fit new side repeater (because i spazed out and left one ontop of a radiator and it melted lmfao)


Results

looks sweet, i like the splitter because although its aftermarket it still pulls off the OE look. Is the exhaust a trim or a complete back box? Youve obviously done a good job, are there any before pics?

the car wash at benton is mine
they are franchises and i got my grubby mits on this one around 5 years back!

the washes at byker and blyth are ran by mates of mine

the exhaust is a full cat back stainless system, its not to my taste and i think its to large for the car, but it was on when i got the car so i am reluctant to change it until its knackered
