New des looks like it'll be a good little project. Are you stickin si bumpers on?

i LOVE that characterful little early mk3, i really want a very early one, theyre more like a mk2 than a mk3

is it a 1.0? or?

Shes a 1.1 same engine as the aubergine one just carbed!

Wanted to keep the carb but a mate wanked out the engine unfortunatley!

New project thread for that

Painted Rear drums Nissan Gold!



Got some dosh together and decided to have a go at spraying with a mate of mine!







End Result




After a quick wash and wax

Not very happy how the front bumper turned out like, Gonna get em redone over the summer months!
Much better than blue although!!

After our short spell of decent weather thought id clean up the fez a little better!








Had the sills painted up with hammerite for a lil extra protection! Great stuff!!
Had to clean the car in that weather also a wax!
Powerwashed the underneath of the car
Attached the fog surrounds i got from a chap on Fiestaguides, cheers again Tom!
Painted the rear tow Nissan gold, looks well!
Finally fitted the RS rear spoiler i got about a week before i started modding the car, About fudgen time!
Small but effective!

Starting to look like an Si now, Could do with front Arch spats and a de-stripping!
Have Ford Flaps to stick on when i get around to pulling them off the 3dr

Thanks to Dave i now have fully functional Front fogs and a 12" sub and amp wired up also!

Really have to learn my electronics

You did a pretty good job of that spraying! Did you use cans??? it looks reflective and everything! normally just looks oversprayed and orange peel like if anyone else does it including myself!

Excellent work! Its looking great now, I need to get my front bumper sprayed, looks ridiculous lol. Was it hard to spray? I bet its a lot better with a compressor.

I know what you mean with rattle cans being near enough black lol, did you just ask for dark aubergine over the counter then? Never bought paint like that, just always gone for rattle cans

Well ok then From a distance it looks great, even so, if I did it from a distance it would still look rubbish
