now im not banned thought id show off me car i picked up yesterday. Been busy today. Not expecting any interest but i just wanna show off my new toy.

thread copies from another forum as im lazy.

As a few of you will know i took delivery of my new car yesterday After a 4:30 hour drive to north wales in my mates little 306 derv and a 5 hour drive back (fooking roadworks on m25 at 11 0 clock @ night WTF!) I set off to me mates garage this morn to get tinkering.



First job was to fit my 6k coloured leds all round the car and my Hids. ( i know projectors are best with hids b4 people start)

what a mission this was... i thought id slide the head light forwards to save my knuckles and happy days. no chance!! and i could not be ***** to take the bumper off so i just put on my Jeremy beadle hands and struggled!



Second job was to play silly buggers with my badges. Started off with Red TDI badges on the boot. I de-badged and looked at the 1 only silver badge on my engine cover.............i could not resist it!! so i go about swapping badges over so i can have a Borat!

Head lights looked shat due to fading so i sparked up the G3 compound and set out to clean them up a bit,

Looks good, that's one of the best looking Bora's I've seen. Your mates done a cracking job on the paintwork. Like the rims as well.
 
thanks jojo.... i had a nice time away...was hot and there was plenty of beer! ;)
Does look a little shiny dont it dave. spend a good part of all day, today mopping and polishing, fitting fiddling etc. well worth it. ITs got a P&P tuning box which throws me into 400nm tqs @ about 150bhp. pulls like a chuff chuff! cant fault it other than the under tray kncok coz the clips snapped, scared the **** out of me on the m6 commin home coz i thought my wheel was loose. . we know all about that one dont we byzan! :p

glad u like it.... detailing time tomorrow :)

Looking good, nice Bora, just some tints and its there!!

Paintworks come up well, love red cars when they are shiney, one of the best colours.

Enjoy it!
 
Isnt a Bora a bit too sensible for you? :)
 
dispite the ASN reputation i am actually quite normal. I just like to irritate some people on here! :asskicking:

:)
 
Like it, colour and wheel combo works well.

Looks like it was polished with Gypsy Tears.
 
Smart mate - Love red cars, i used to have a red XR2 back in the day. I used to poish the thing every weekend... I was only 18!

Keep on top of the polishing though - Otherwise it'll end up dusty pink like my mates golf!
 
cheers gooner... i will be polishing it every week mate.. used to my scooby and my a4. (the a3 didnt warrant it!) been tinkering all day today fitting this new centre console. no more skank wood and ****** tape player :)

the Soft touch indicators are a nice luxury toy, make motorway driving with the cruise very lazy.
