Hi, my Name is Luke and I am 32years old.
I am driving as my daily car a smart for two (slightly modified to 120bhp) and my longtime project is a 306 cabriolet. Started with a 1,6l lump and now equipped with a 2l XSI 132bhp. Will start a thread in projects next days with some pics of the several stages of modifying
A sneak preview of actual look:
Now I have the problem that I need some parts to buy and can't write in the wanted section maybe someone can help me...
Kind regards
Luke

Welcome! As said, 10 posts will let you post in the sections you need.
That's a pretty tasty looking cabby, I don't care what anyone else says, and i really like those headlights, I was gonna get a set for mine until I saw the price tag!

These are side drive lights from a vw vento and modified to led clusters for less mounting depth.
There are more non-pug-parts inside and outside like the BMW-rear-bumper with diffuser or switches and things like that OEM++

Because it was not possible to make an legal upgrade of more than 50% to get it through the MOT. So next upgrade will be now the GTI when I get a proper engine or better a complete car to switch off. Or when I manage it maybe an xfy before that I have to collect many more information about such an conversation and what comes along with
Here the sneak of interior:

Wow, that dash is VERY tidy, love it!
Can you get hold of more headlight washers over there? We can order them in here but they're £70 per washer, which is a bit ridiculous.

6438A7 for the bumper with round fog lights and costs in Germany regular 92,12€ (74,73£) for a set of covers and nozzles. Than you need two of 6438A8 telescope mounts which come 47,90€ per unit (38,85£) and the tank, the second pump, the tubes, fixings... Very expensive stuff :,(

Yeah I saw the part numbers, thats more than I remember, must have forgotten to spec the telescopic mounts too!
Are there many 306's with them where you are?
Steal a set for me?

The interior isn't ready yet. Tomorrow I'll give the door cards to my tailor and hopefully this week all will be finished. Than those soldering and getting the last wires inside and passing the mot. That's my plans for next week
When I got time during next couple of days I'll make some more pics and start a project thread the story of a little common cabby becoming my dream car
