Did you ever see any of the old project thread over on .net? Me and my bro have become experts in the art of rebuilding the front of a 306, cos I broke it so many times!
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - kingy - 26-04-2012

Shhhh! Don't jinx it, or I'll come and plaster shit under your door handles!
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - kingy - 26-04-2012
you dont know where i live and even if you did i would be out when you came.
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - samass - 27-04-2012
looks good that, had an idea, would there be any way of 'hiding' them? so it looks like they aren't there until you actually use them? like tint them black or something, but still have them so the orange shines through when they're on?
not sure how youd go about it... tinting film and wrap the whole strip maybe?
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - WiNgNuTz - 27-04-2012
Hmmm, not a bad shout that, may have to look into it. Although the LEDs do poke out a fair bit, may need to find a way to set them back a bit further in the strip. Happy with how they've turned out for now though.
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - samass - 27-04-2012
yeah it looks like they do. how they held it? hot glue? maybe just set them back a bit and smother the feckers in more glue
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - WiNgNuTz - 27-04-2012
Theyre only held in with a wing and a prayer at the moment, but will most likely will end up glued in. Havent fixed them properly as yet, as the one thats on the drivers side was only put on to see how they look, havent got the passenger side one on yet! Still a bit of a "Work in progress" at the moment.

Lol, cant believe how clean the back end looks without them too. Was quite surprised!

Quick update as I'm on my phone, just got my spoiler on, taped it up to let the tiger seal set nicely:

Looking pretty good I think, can't wait to get the tape off!
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - Dan! - 08-05-2012
Looks really good mate. Good choice over the stock spoiler
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - WiNgNuTz - 08-05-2012
My thoughts precisely mate! :thumbup:

My spoiler fell off.............in my hand, but thats not the point.
It would seem that the tiger seal stuck to the window/bodywork, but not to the spoiler. :wtf: As i took the masking tape off, it just got looser and looser, until i took the last piece of tape off, and it just fell into my hand!
And to make matters worse, the poxy masking tape decided to take a load of the lacquer off my bootlid:

![[Image: AC547D15-orig.jpg]](http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/g427/wingnutz2/AC547D15-orig.jpg)
That'll be needing a respray as well now then. What a *"£$%(&"$% load of &"%*"(&"£%)#! :angry-screaming: Might as well have used gaffa tape!
P.s. Sorry about the lousy phone camera pics, you can still see what i mean though!
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - WiNgNuTz - 10-05-2012
Upon closer inspection today, I think the tiger seal reacted with the paint, as I didn't lacquer the area that would be in contact with it. That explains why it didn't stick.
So I've now sanded that area back to bare (almost), but have found that the adhesive on the masking tape also seems to have reacted with the lacquer on my spoiler, leaving marks that I thought were removable adhesive. Bummer. Looks like I'll need to flat that back and give it another coat of lacquer too. :nope:
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - Eeyore - 20-05-2012
D: Does that spoiler not have the option of bolting it on? Quite tempted to get one! In fairness i should have got a dturbo instead of the 1.8 but itll be interesting to see how you get on and ill follow in your footsteps in a years time!
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - WiNgNuTz - 20-05-2012
There was an option to bolt the thing on, yes.....but i wasnt about to try drilling holes in the rear windscreen. Tiger seal has worked a treat this time round, the spoiler is on and secure, and ill show it off to you when i come up on Sunday 3rd June.
Also, yes you should have got a DT.....you plum!
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - WiNgNuTz - 24-05-2012
Had a little play on Photoshop earlier, whipped these pics up of how the car will look lowered...
Standard:
![[Image: E244DF86-orig.jpg]](http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/g427/wingnutz2/E244DF86-orig.jpg)
Lowered:
![[Image: 2B49460A-orig.jpg]](http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/g427/wingnutz2/2B49460A-orig.jpg)
And a bit of a fantasy pic now.....spotted an RCZ earlier, and thought the wheels ("Sortilege" i believe they're called) looked pretty cool, so grabbed a pic of them, and 'shopped them on the car, but then i found that they're 19", so might struggle to squeeze them under my arches!
Look pretty sweet on the car though:
![[Image: 042A9347-orig.jpg]](http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/g427/wingnutz2/042A9347-orig.jpg)
Thats all really, not much of an update...cant wait for 3rd June now though to pick up my half leathers from Mr SRowell.

Little tip. Wet the masking tape down before taking it off other wise it tales the laqure off. I also found out the hard way.lol

Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - Dan! - 24-05-2012
Ffs man, get yourself a bosch and get up here already
haha. When is the lowering on the cards though?
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - Dave26 - 24-05-2012
Amazing how much better it'll look just after lowering.
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - Dan! - 24-05-2012
Oh and btw, spioler looks ace! especially from bang side on in that above photo!
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - WiNgNuTz - 24-05-2012
Bosch will probably happen before the lowering, insurance company want £126 out of me to lower it just 40mm!!!!111one :wtf:
And thanks, im well chuffed with the spoiler, really finishes the back end off nicely!
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - Dan! - 24-05-2012
The joys of the XUD/bosch pump, can just be classed as standard and nobody at the insurance company will know the wonders happening inside it. BOOOST

Dan! Wrote:The joys of the XUD/bosch pump, can just be classed as standard and nobody at the insurance company will know the wonders happening inside it. BOOOSTExactly...which is why as soon as i can lay my hands on one, its getting done! Insurance company dont know that my Lucas is running 18psi, as i could have quite easily picked up a replacement fuel pump from a scrappy that was already tuned without my knowledge!
Re: WiNgNuTz's Diablo "Vivant" 1.9DT [Pic heavy] - Eeyore - 24-05-2012
looks good!
Yeh hopefully youll like the leathers. Should be nicer than the cloth seats anyway!
