Inspiration needed - Nathan1305 - 24-03-2015

So love my 306 but looking to do something different with it. I'm thinking of putting white banded steels on it. What else do you think I could do to it? Inside and out.

You'll have to go low to make banded steels work imo. But it'll look good!

And if it were me I'd go standard rear spoiler & maybe de lock the doors?


RE: Inspiration needed - Iceman299 - 24-03-2015

Black masks

It's on Coilovers on the front and will be replacing the axle soon so hopefully I can get it to sit right Smile

Will be black masking the new set of lights I'm getting Smile

If you go banded steels route you'd have to go for a standard spoiler. Banded steels would be good though

Some hockey stick clips would be a good start too Wink

Haha Yeah they are needed Wink


RE: Inspiration needed - Dum-Dum - 25-03-2015

get a splitter and make your exhaust fit in the cut out would be a start.

Maybe a set of 17" steels as they were only about £50 each brand new last time i checked.

Yeah I'm after a splitter and a new exhaust system. Want a straight through system. I want these 16" steels and band them Smile http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=261794752520 


RE: Inspiration needed - Dum-Dum - 25-03-2015

Trying to find more pics of this car to show you properly but it's probing elusive.

They look pretty decent Smile

Remove your illegal tints on the front windows? Sorry its a pet hate of mine Wink

Otherwise I quite like the white 'clones. Everyone tries to go banded steels but few actually pull it off well...
I'd make it lighter and put on significantly lighter wheels/tyres etc. If you are going to the cost anyway you might as well make it quicker Smile


RE: Inspiration needed - RetroPug - 25-03-2015

IMO it looks great and the subtle mods you've already done are good and it'd be ruined with blantant, OTT stuff.


RE: Inspiration needed - Mattcheese31 - 25-03-2015

Think it looks good as is tbh, give her a wash you dirty fecker Big Grin


RE: Inspiration needed - 7057sam - 25-03-2015

Definitely need different wheels, speedline 2118' Smile


RE: Inspiration needed - Nathan1305 - 25-03-2015

Haha it will be washed Friday lol 

And thanks guys Big Grin I guess I'm a little bored of it as I see it all the time. In all honesty I desperately want a set of TD 1.2s they are my favourite wheels

Bosch pump is going on Friday and intercooler too follow. I'll be after a uprated turbo soon. Want to go for a GT2052

This tbh. Visibilty out of those windows at night is going to be like wearing sunglasses, which is stupid, hence having your front windows tinted is stupid. Sorry if that's a bit blunt, but that's just my opinion. 

Otherwise, I also think this looks pretty sorted other than wheel choice, and forget what JJ said, I had the same (if not very similar) spoiler on my DT, and I loved it. Big Grin

Could do with a good wash and detail though to really show it off. Wink

Visibility isn't that bad for me to be honest and yeah the spoiler is staying Smile what do you think about putting those pro race 3 wheels on? Also thinking morretts 


RE: Inspiration needed - Iceman299 - 25-03-2015

I had 2% limo front and rears years ago. Visibility was fine at night unless you were in an unlit carpark! 


RE: Inspiration needed - WiNgNuTz - 25-03-2015

They're still illegal whether you think your visibilty "isn't that bad" or not, and for good reason. But that's the last I'll say on it...if you leave them on, that's your call. Tongue

I'm not a fan of Morettes tbh, would rather have black masks if I didn't have my ABM's. Wink

Oh yeah, deffo illegal. Just saying visibility isn't as bad as people think.

Fair enough Smile and yeah I'm undecided on morretts. Need to find another set of wheels first as the clones need a refurb


RE: Inspiration needed - Jimbo - 25-03-2015

Ive just got pro race 3s on my estate Wink


RE: Inspiration needed - ConorTRG - 25-03-2015

If you go for banded steelies, I think a cream colour would look good.

Just had a look at your project thread, holy shit it looks awesome on those wheels 


RE: Inspiration needed - RetroPug - 26-03-2015

I'll soon be fitting white TD pro race 3s to my gti6. Big Grin
