Mark's smoothed 306 with added extras.

[Matt]

Get one from the scrappy!

[Foxy-jim]

Ok. What models have them or is it random?

[Pompey306mark]

I got mine off ebay. But not seen many around. Most are for the petrol verisons with the ECU behind the battery.

You should be able to find one for yours though.

[Foxy-jim]

Ye I can't use one with a ecu cover though as my strut brace is in the way!

[Matt]

Did a 1.6 have the ecu bit? I can't remember

[Foxy-jim]

A phase 3 may do!

[Pompey306mark]

Right so today my new alloys arrived, just need a clean, and then need to refurb them. Different colour, not sure which one yet or if I should do them two tone like a coloured face and different colour dish.





Also bought a new smaller battery yesterday but with more power. Just need to change the priming bulb (hand grenade for Ginge). So it hopefully starts better in the morning.

you know im right :clap:

those wheels aer going to look awesome mate, perhaps keep a silver shine to the outher wheel, and on the inner, stick to your guns with white. think that would look real smart!

[Foxy-jim]

Are they borbets? Keep the lip polished!

[cwspellowe]

Black centre, blue lip ftmfw!

[Pompey306mark]

Yes they are borbets, the lip is not polished at the moment it looks more like a light blue paint in person.

I also have some aero catches on the way as I am fed up of my bonnet being uneven as the latch is messed up.

[Foxy-jim]

Well polish it up then! And do them like lime green centres haha.

[4WayDiablo]

Lime green centres? On a blue car? Nahh would loom good white. But vlack would match the bonnet

[Pompey306mark]

Going to do away with the standard bonnet locking system and use these instead.



See if we can get the bonnet lined up correctly.

[4WayDiablo]

^^me wanty

[Atterz]

Ive been thinking about a set of them as well Mark, the standard bonnet system is a joke. Let me know how you get on!

[Pompey306mark]

Will do. If I can get all my parts before the end of the month will try and get everything fitted soon.

[Foxy-jim]

How much cutting is involved in fitting them?

[Pompey306mark]

just the size of the plate in the bonnet.

[Foxy-jim]

Shouldn't be too bad then!

[Pompey306mark]

Just ordered some shiney new things. Need to get these alloys sorted soon really want them on the car and sell all the car thats in the garage. Hopefully while finding a job at the same time lol

[Pompey306mark]

So since the employment thing is is not going very well, I thought I would spend a bit of time on the car. So out came the sand paper and warm water and I went to work til I got cold hands and ran out of sand paper. A few areas to go over then the roof and front bumper.

Hopefully next week my parts should be here, so can get those fitted.

[Fozzy]

Going to bringing out the G3 next then? Love that stuff

[Seid']

What specs are the borbets? 7j?

[Pompey306mark]

Yep g3 next after a bit more sanding.

borbets are 16 and i believe 7j.

[Foxy-jim]

Will this bring the shine out a bit more?

[Pompey306mark]

Yea then the vinyl will hide it after lol.

[Foxy-jim]

Awesome!

[Pompey306mark]

New spigot rings for the borbets.


And new rim blades to protect the edges of the alloys.

[Connor]

Youre wrapping it?! What colour/s?
