Robs Progress Thead

[pritchp]

Where to begin? Well the start is probably the best place eh?

Right, bought the car back in March/April 2010 from down in Brighton (it was a mission of a drive but well worth it for the drive back).. I traded in my Corsa for it:

got it home and here are the first pictures of it!

I said to myself i wasn't going to change the car.. but that didn't last long and i started doing small things to it:

New side lights:

Up next was the K-tec panel filter (that later disintegrated!):

It was then time to take the rear seats out:

I don't like the name of the car.. and having it written on the back was a big no no for me.. so off 'twingo' came:

A guy from Canada got in contact about a twingo brake light cover and sent me across a number of free samples...:

Then i increased my love for detailing so spent a small fortune on products with great results:

It was about this time i went decal crazy and ordered the R2 decal set... i never got round to fitting it all and after a while got bored of it and took it off:

I got bored of the above decals so took them off.. but the car looks too bare and well.. i decided to make up some custom decals for the car and after a little wait they arrived so went on the car ( along with the tow eye you see in the pics)

Got back to my car after work and some woman had decided to crash into my car and damage it.. luckily she left contact details so she paid for the repairs but i was less than impressed:

wind deflectors arrived and were fitted:

RS hand brake and gear knob were soon ordered and fitted:

New RS spoiler was also ordered and then painted/fitted:
old:

none:

new

8000K HIDs were fitted (had lots of issues with mine so pulled them out.. got new ones ordered though )

few more decals:

Due to the issues with the ktec panel filter i ordered a BMC one which is now in the car:

My scan gauge arrived earlier in the week but ive been away on business so when i got in tonight i got round to fitting it (sorry for bad picture)

I have a fair few ideas/plans for the car.. time will tell and show Hope you enjoyed/enjoy.
