Silent coat makes a big difference but you can use cloud 9 in a lot of places!
You won't regret them focal comps. I've got them in the back of mine and they are great!
RE: Project Babyliss - Curt - 16-04-2013
Yeah I thought as much. Getting some Cloud 9 too but don't know if I can afford it at the moment!
Yeah I know they're awesome, put some in the Audi years ago and currently have them in the '6.
RE: Project Babyliss - Ed Doe - 16-04-2013

Those coilies look uber-win
Get em onnnn!!
RE: Project Babyliss - Curt - 16-04-2013
Hopefully on tonight if I can be bothered
Any news yet Ed?
RE: Project Babyliss - Ed Doe - 16-04-2013
No sorry Curt; I went to Ace last night! I'll grab a few minutes and sort it out this evening hopefully
RE: Project Babyliss - Curt - 16-04-2013
How dare you?! Haha, that's cool man, just wondering. That'd be awesome
RE: Project Babyliss - Curt - 17-04-2013

Now to bed them in, 100 miles on their softest (bouncy bouncy) setting. Looking forward to having a play with the damping, but it already handles awesomely
RE: Project Babyliss - C.A.R. - 18-04-2013
Looking fantastic mate. Every time I open this it makes me wish I still had mine!
Love the mirrors.
Only concern is, spending this much money on bits, how secure is it? A chap lost his key and immobiliser thing at a Nutz meet and we had his car going in about 10 minutes, they are shockingly easy to get into
RE: Project Babyliss - Curt - 18-04-2013
Cheers Chris
Don't tell everyone that
haha. It's not really too much of an issue, as it's never left anywhere dodgy, or where I can't keep an eye on it. It's kept on a gated drive, the only place that does slightly concern me is when it's at my partners... May look into sorting security though.
RE: Project Babyliss - Fozzy - 18-04-2013
Security ...... just take the battery with you when you leave it
RE: Project Babyliss - Curt - 18-04-2013
Haha, quick release battery? I am considering a quick release boss actually... but I like where the steering wheel sits now. May try one though.
Test fitted the duck tail:

Fits pretty damn well considering I had to do a lot of "making it work".
Fitted some clear side repeaters and tinted my bumper reflectors, as I'm too cheap to spend 50 quid on some clear ones.
Random cards do have their uses:

RE: Project Babyliss - Fozzy - 18-04-2013
Ive just bought an NRG Slim boss, then getting that D1 snap off boss i was speaking about the other day so that the wheel isn't too far out, i really want a deep dish steering wheel but i think that may mean i will be able to steer with my chin it will be that close.
The Fibreglass seems to be going well, did you not want to go down into the dip aswell? or you keeping that for the jack
RE: Project Babyliss - Curt - 18-04-2013
That sounds likie a good plan mate. Yeah I'm the same as you, plus I love the Prototipo! Will look into those NRG ones
Yeah it's getting there, put another layer on before I came in too. One more I reckon and then I'll make up the MDF front. Nah I decided not to, as there'd be nowhere to put it otherwise... So just went over the top. Then I'll just velcro the box in or come up with another quick release plan.
RE: Project Babyliss - Fozzy - 18-04-2013
The NRG ones are expensive, There are 'nrg' on ebay but im pretty sure it will be fake, will let you know when it turns up.
Cable ties to fix the box in job done.
RE: Project Babyliss - Curt - 18-04-2013
Yeah just had a Google and came across them... bit pricey haha. Cool, will be good to see what it's like.
Haha, of course! What was I thinking
RE: Project Babyliss - C.A.R. - 19-04-2013
Look forward to seeing how that turns out!
Maybe a hidden killswitch to the ignition would help increase security, but there's nothing quite like being able to take the steering wheel with you! Only problem is that the cheap eBay quick releases genuinely worry me and the named, branded ones are fecking expensive!
RE: Project Babyliss - Curt - 19-04-2013
Yeah me too
Yeah Matt had one of the cheapo ones and it was awful, so much play, pure crap. But the D1 spec ones Nas sells on Nutz seem to get very good reviews, they're 40 odd quid I think. Might give one a go!
RE: Project Babyliss - Fozzy - 19-04-2013
50 posted, waiting for the bronze one to come into stock, im on the waiting list
RE: Project Babyliss - Curt - 21-04-2013
Ah right, thought it was less than that haha. That one does look smart! May get a blue one...
Got my boot done today.
Had a helper:

Just went for satin black on the underside to save effort/money:

You can see the weave of the carbon in places which is actually pretty cool
A bit of Kurust on the boot floor:

Making progress on the sub enclosure too, although no pics yet. I bought a new toy for the job too, top of the line Dremel, it's awesome
RE: Project Babyliss - Fozzy - 21-04-2013
Looking good.You will have it all fitted by next weekend. Think the satin black on the under side will look quite smart.
RE: Project Babyliss - Curt - 21-04-2013
Cheers mate. Hoping so! But still have a lot left to do... so probably going to be working on it after work every day. Yeah I think it'll be okay, although my need a touch up now I've got overspray on it
RE: Project Babyliss - Tom - 21-04-2013
This is so cool! I love that sub enclosure, always found it awesome how people make them like that!
RE: Project Babyliss - Matt - 22-04-2013

It's drying overnight with the inside laid up, so should hopefully be finished tomorrow. Just got to cut a hole for the connector, carpet/paint the box and mount the sub.
RE: Project Babyliss - Fozzy - 22-04-2013
The fleece blanket has been demoted to sub enclosure then. Quite impressed with how it has come out, how is the fibre glass reinforced, or is it strong enough as is with the pressure created by the sub?
RE: Project Babyliss - puglove - 22-04-2013
Nice work curt, shes looking good

Haha, yes, well spotted. Well, it was laying about... and I'd already got paint on it... Some may say it's a promotion
Only quite?
. Yeah it'll be strong enough, it's just layers of matting to give it's strength. I may do one more layer on the inside tomorrow, but I'll see. (22-04-2013, 07:46 PM)puglove Wrote: Nice work curt, shes looking good

RE: Project Babyliss - Matt - 22-04-2013
Yeah got some of it done mate
cheers again for that paint Get some pictures up of it with it on! I need to have a fap
RE: Project Babyliss - Curt - 22-04-2013
Ah cool, no worries mate
. I've only got a shit one, photos seem to exaggerate it and make it look a different colour when it's not, it's just the rest of the car needs a mop. Oh and the boot needs a sand and compound.
RE: Project Babyliss - Matt - 22-04-2013
Ahhhh that's looks sweet as f*ck mate
god job!Wanna respray my grill and bumper
