Non RS-BlackTwingo-i Progress

[BlackTwingo-i]

If you take the bumper off the grill under the reg, and a small piece of plastic above the reg are just plastic welded on, so if you take time to carefully cut away the weld with a blade of some sort they just lift right out! Ill get pics next time bumper is off

They can both be put back in if needed

Finally, the truth about how your mess of an air filter made yours faster than mine!

 

[BlackTwingo-i]

Finallyy!!! That piece of shit rusty metal crap eye thing has been replaced..

Heres the newest pic i had of it..

Whilst it being slightly orange it was going towards matching with the 133.net sticker and my orange calipers.. But it wasnt a good enough orange match.. So it had to go sadly

New and improved (not cheapo metal) tow eye!

Just fitted it, fresh pics when cars clean

Atleast i wont have a dirty ring anymore.. Phew!

 

[Dubz]

Glory hole V2 looks good. Your cars looking all exposed and vulnerable without any mesh

 

[BlackTwingo-i]

I know ( friggin ebay sellers!! Should be here any day!!

 

[MovingShadow]

I have 3 zip ties, 2 that secure the cold air feed cone and one that holds the air filter itself.

But you barely see them or don't see them at all.

Interesting with what mesh you'll be going.

 

[BlackTwingo-i]

I got a diamond shape one, with holes sized 10mm x 7mm.. Hoping the smallish holes give it a clean look.. Aswell as catching baree leaves and flies :lol:

 

[Michael]

hope your radiators getting battered by flies and bugs.

 

[JE_GT]

I had a load of plastic mesh grille material in my shed lol, forgot to tell you..

 

[BlackTwingo-i]

Ahh thanks mate.. Appreciate it!!

And mike, the plastic grill didnt really offer much protection as it was :lol:
