[mk1nova1.8]

looks like a god start, not to keen on the number plate needs shaving down a little, looks to be a clean little motor

[beggsy]

Keep up the good work but as like others have said ditch the front plate as it looks like somebody has knocked its teeth out.

[mk1nova1.8]

can i ask why the rear number plate holes been has been redone to the way they are ? seems a shame to drill a mint boot lid , does your plate flap ?

[beggsy]

just putting the screws out of the way. what do you mean does my plate flap?

[Sloth]

not to keen on the number plate needs shaving down a little

which is epicly illegal....:mad: :roll:

o.p, shes very tidy, and your doing good, just keep it simple. :thumb:

[mk1nova1.8]

because its screwed at the top so the bottom is loose to flap.

[mk1nova1.8]

which is epicly illegal....:mad: :roll:

so is the square plate , as it didnt come out the factory with it.

[beggsy]

plate is definatly legal as i work in car sales and i wouldnt put it on if i new id get done for it. no plate is on well and doesnt move at all.

[Sloth]

wrong, it can show a square plate as long as its not an import sized one or undersize.

o.p chassis legs look spankin':cool:

[beggsy]

whole car is pretty much rust free the bits of bubbles on the chassis legs and seams is wax oil.

[vaughanmc]

So the K&N fitted then ? :)

[beggsy]

ye cheers pal. Had to buy a reducer though.

[Rickyb]

any updates on this?

[L33 LEG]

I never knew he had this thread. The car is looking good at the moment, a big improvement to the first stages.

Get some decent pics up, and spray your wheels a different bloody colour lol
