My ultra blue SRi CDTI 150...

[JJ0063]

Just thought I'd pop a few pics up how it stands & il update as and when.

current spec:

18" xp2's in shadow chrome
DT UK box









plans are to get SRI headlights back on it, debadged grill & go from there, it's already going back on warranty for a new manifold due to the swirl flap issue.

comments very welcome

Cheers!

nice wheels , halfords own rubbing compound should take that rear badge shadow off mate only around £4 a tube i used it on mine and it came up a treat

Cheers,

Yeah that is literally the badge removed & a quick rub, i've got a fudge wheel (Rubber wheel that attaches to a drill) to get the rest off & then i've got some G3 to use too

Have asked for a clay kit from the Mrs for xmas too, so should be looking half decent come spring!

Thanks for the comment

Thought i'd updated this but obviously not.

I'll run through the current spec:


18" Xp2's powder coated Shadow Chrome
DT UK Green box
EGR blank
Insignia washer jets
Aero wipers
Air filter mod (Both parts)
Alpine CDE-133BT head unit
Flip key conversion (Only had normal key)

I've got black SRI headlights, facelift rear wiper arm & an irmscher grill waiting to be fitted too!

Wanting to get rid of the XP2's for a set of silver snowflakes.

My next major mod will be losing the backbox, going to have straight stainless pipe with the standard tip welded to it, going to try and source a twin rear Y join and twin diffuser so I can have twin OEM tips but no boxes!

next job is cambelt!

Cheers

Keep ya xp2s mate , snowies far too common now....

your xp2s will look much better silver too. I was thinking of refurbishing mine a similar colour to yours as my car is silver lightening.

I'm really wanting silver snowies!

next q... Roof wrap.. Gloss black, Matt black or carbon?

[DAVIDD88]

Why did it have silver headlights anyway if its an Sri

[JJ0063]

We're not sure, HPI clear, no signs of damage etc!

[JJ0063]

So im still trying to decide whether or not it should have a gloss black or maybe even carbon roof wrap.

Cambelt is booked for the first week of Feb.

Lights & badgeless grill are on the way.

Couple of dirty pics..








Also carbon wrapped my door handles as the drivers one was scuffed. Looks epic in person.
