Reborn

[simonairheadz]

Almost there!
Went to bodyshop to see car yesterday
Respray'd totally straight body.
Problem with one HID on the morettes
But should all be done by the end of the week!
A nice clean 2003 (in a greatcolour too)

[simonairheadz]

Also got a smooth spoilerless boot being done
And converted origional headlamps(silver sprayed glossblack)
So can change the look as i want.
Opinions?
Put my carbon sti scoop back on whilst the highcarbon rear spoilers on or leave?
Got carbon exhaust shield and small mirrors

[scooby doo]

i really like that bar the headlights think the rest looks ace tho, wheels look great too, bet your pleased

[Mortster]

Leave the scoop as is, looks awesome!

And sell me your wheels...

[simonairheadz]

Had a headlamp damaged years ago and had these purchaced to replace it.
Was always dissapointed with standard headlamp output so went for morettes and the converted them to HID,s which with all four lights on put out virtual daylight(all set low)
But now have a set of origionals which have been resprayed black and look menacing.
Need to spray the grill gloss black now
Wheels were bought off anger ages ago.

[Steve_PPP]

Looks good, i'd go with the original headlamps with black insides, will look great

[riiidaa]

love the wheels, hate the morettes, keep the spoiler, ditch the black fog covers, less is more

[simonairheadz]

Putting them back together this weekend,just need to adapt to take the hids.
Hopefully get to a meet soon(i work saturdays)

[Red Baron]

Liking the mix of red and black, would leave the spoiler as it is.

[Lucky]

Looks fantastic Simon, especially with the wheels.

[simonairheadz]

Wheels were a second hand buy from anger on here,was going to paint them never got round to it.
Being able to put on a smooth boot and tinted headlights will change the look dramaticly
And give me options

[scooby doo]

Same for me if it was mine.

Does look tidy mate.

Looking good and the BBS CH style alloys just don't age, they look great on so many cars. The only down side with them is you need to go up an inch more then you expect as the design can look smaller then the actually are.

They look great in gold on yours though.

[bonner]

Like the ch reps was ganna grab a set for the bm wouldnt of thought theyd look that good nice lookin scoob mate!!

[simonairheadz]

There 18,s and if the car wasnt lowered would prob look small.
Fogs are gonna be done before i pic it up,they misinderstood as they were black when they went in!
Really looking forward to getting the blacked origional lights back on and the smooth boot( debadged)and my largeer sti carbon scoop back on!
Its been in since the 4th dec so cantcwait to get it back

Found the wheels, cheap at the mo too, and very tempting!

[Mortster]

And...have you considered the HT Autos skirt extensions? Would line up the splitter with the rear bumper spats a treat

[simonairheadz]

I like them but dont love em!
If the right wheel came up i would consider a change

[simonairheadz]

Be interesting to see what those on ebay go for

[simonairheadz]

Got a set of five of these with shot tires 18's.
In dire need of a refurb if anyone has anything to swap?

[Mortster]

No bids on those wheels yet, only 2 hrs left.

[simonairheadz]

Funny as id rather have that colour on mine

[simonairheadz]

Those of you that detango do you just remove
The orange plastic and silvertec bulb or use another piece of plastic
Painted mine and ready to put back together

[simonairheadz]

Done just need to get some silver indicator bulbs

[C. J.]

Lights look good

[simonairheadz]

Really enjoyed doing them,
Now need to fit my HID,s into them,get my mot tester to set them correctly(friend)
Then set them in.
Have had my morettes ages and will miss having dip OR main after being able to have both at the same time

[CRAIGR]

Car looks great Simon
Well done with the h/lights too.
Oh and sincere apologies for the cobweb

[bigemp]
