Mark's smoothed 306 with added extras.

[mark_airey]

I quite like the wheels, different is always good and its just gold Vinyl is it? that what it looks like to me anyway

[C.A.R.]

Twinkle twinkle...

Yea not a good look I don't think, they look smart just in full silver finish, possibly with a polished lip if you can be bothered with the maintenance that brings with it.

[Pompey306mark]

Can't be bothered with the maintenance. But the good thing is if I get bored, it will only take a few seconds to go back to silver.

Note it's gold, red and green colour changing.

[KrisB]

And the next template i make is going to be much better and clean cut.... thats only the one wheel done as a trial run.

[Pompey306mark]

Bit annoying was suppose to be going to kris's tomorrow, but called it off due to suspension parts not turning up in time.

However I have just been told they were returned today to my old place of work.

So next weekend is when all the fun begins.

[Pompey306mark]

So this morning I finished off the roof lining and other bits, it's not great but it will do.





Then moved on to the indicator last on the way home it just stopped working, so this morning took the stalk out cleaned it but that was not the problem, fuse blown so changed the fuse, went for a drive and it blew again, so changed it for a bigger fuse and all is ok

Then these turned up.

Along with my refurbed Gaz GHA, need a good clean but since they will only get dirty again why bother. They are for sale by the way.

[Eskiiboi]

Price?

[Pompey306mark]

£230 with the spring cups. Can drop them off at krisB's next weekend as I am up there.

[Eskiiboi]

Everything there to fit them?
The adjusters all work and everything?

I'll let you know this evening if that's ok, got to check funds

[Pompey306mark]

Yea all there. If you have non standard top mounts you will need two sleeve nuts for the top of the coilovers.

Yea all still working.

[Pompey306mark]

Was bored so took a pic of the car.

Hopefully look a bit different after the weekend.

[4WayDiablo]

Looks good dude!
Where was that pic taken? Not your usual spots lol
What's changing at the weekend?

[Pompey306mark]

Parents house, dog and house sitting which means hot tub lol.

Hopefully this weekend = wheels, pads, vinyl, aero catches and back to my better top mounts if all goes to plan since the the last two weeks have not I am not keep up much hope.

[Grant]

Surely you want to find out why that fuse was blowing before just wedging a bigger one in?

[4WayDiablo]

Surely you want to find out why that fuse was blowing before just wedging a bigger one in?

Now that just isn't the Peugeot way...

[Grant]

No but the wiring that will iminantly start a fire, causing you to watch your pride and joy go up in flames is lol

[Pompey306mark]

Good it deserves to go up in a cloud of smoke. Plus as Phil says its not the French way.

It was fine before removing the roof lining. Just started when I put it back in.

What else is on the same circuit as the indicators switch?

The hazards worked just not the indicators.

[Fozzy]

Woooo, borbets, im looking forward to the photos

[mark_airey]

You have a busy weekend ahead then

I so want to see this with the Borbets on!

[Pompey306mark]

So a pretty good bank holiday Friday. Headed of to Kris's with a few jobs in mind.

To being with a small stroke of luck with the luck garage being open even though they said they would closed. Dropped bot sets of alloys to get the tyres swapped over.

Then started the other little jobs, first the new 1155 mintex pads, Great pads, work well from cold and stop really well when warm.

Then back to the old top mounts which is nice, had a small issue with a washer but it was sorted in the end.

Then the aero catches, more work than you would expect but got there in the end, and I think work really well.

Then the roof, nothing like a bit of vinyling to finish the day.

As you can see a slight change to the alloys, might change this but its ok for now. Car needs to raised at the front some more as the wider alloys are making the wheels rub on the drivers side.

























I know they wont be to everyone taste but oh well.

[4WayDiablo]

Looks really weird the changing colour caps
But my got it looks f*cking awesome on borbets!

[darrenjlobb]

Hm, I'm afraid to say that it doesn't look as good as I had hoped it would But then I guess that's my fault for having to high expectations heh, still looks good though,

Is your paint flatted down in those photos or something?

[Pompey306mark]

Yea paint has been flatten.

[ginge191]

not too impressed with them, they're nice wheels but they just look quite dull

[Atterz]

Not being funny about the fuse but JPs actually caught fire, indicator stalk that is. You really dont want that! O and i love the headlining!

[aggyj17]

I do like the car with the borbets on. But realy not a fan of the centre caps

[darrenjlobb]

Tbh I think half the problem is maybe its just no where near low enough to pull them off at the moment? And needs to be polished up / wheels polished up to....

[cwspellowe]

Height on the Borbets is ok, the different coloured centre caps look gash though. Would look immense if the centres/spokes were gunmetal/anthracite and the lips white imo

[Atterz]

Also with regards to the aerocatches, do you still use the standard bonnet catch/safety catch?

[Pompey306mark]

No normal catch is gone.
