rallyfever Posted May 19, 2011 Posted May 19, 2011 Hi all, Looking to make a few cosmetic mods to the Scoob, it's got a 340/340 remap, 18" Speedline Turini's, Miltek exhaust, thats about it. Any thoughts??? Gary
marko72 Posted May 19, 2011 Posted May 19, 2011 Put some pics up so we can see her. Black hawk will look good with black grills for a start.
scooby222 Posted May 20, 2011 Posted May 20, 2011 thats a tough one Gary, carbon bonnets and that sort of thing wont really stand out against black - how about the perrin wing stiffi's and some wrc style mirrors like john (cruz) maybe a vortex generator thingy on the rear window?

Hi Dave, I will post some pics up this weekend, the WRC mirrors I like, but can't find anywhere that does them for the Hawkeye, I have the Zun Sport upper and lower front grills on which are in chrome just now. Perrin Stiffi's are on the cards too as we spoke about at Knockhill last weekend, just need to find somewhere that sells them at a decent price.
r20grm Posted May 20, 2011 Posted May 20, 2011 I think a black car looks well when everything is black on it, wheels, windows, grilles like marko said above. Makes for a really stealthy looking car! Think they call it the murdered out look
tomwrx08 Posted May 20, 2011 Posted May 20, 2011 zunsport grills, front splitter,coilovers, black wheels and lightly tinted windows will make it stunning
road warrior Posted May 20, 2011 Posted May 20, 2011 Needs more black! Have since got the windows tinted... Brembos are getting painted black... May do the insides of the headlights black.. unsure yet...

Think they call it the murdered out look Here's mine for some ideas mate, if carlsberg made the new stealth bomber............... still work in progress, black brembo's on horizon for future mods, rear end now de-badged. mine needs lowered a tad too me thinks. Carbon parts do show ok and look quite subtle against the black, ive got carbon door pillar thingy's and rear heat exhaust shield just small touches. was considering perrin wing stiffi's but feel they might detract from my car so unsure but a cool mod none the less. Cheers JV
road warrior Posted May 21, 2011 Posted May 21, 2011 (edited) x444wrx you should get your boot lock surround painted black to match too, I think it makes a big difference.. I also tinted the spoiler brake light so it blends in better Edited May 21, 2011 by Road Warrior
rallyfever Posted May 21, 2011 Author Posted May 21, 2011 Hi All, Some choice ideas there. I think getting it lowered it is a tick, tinted windows equally so, not sure about the wheels, maybe go the opposite to the popular vote and go white for something a little different, really want wrc wing wirrors, getting the perrin stiffi's, already has a front splitter - forgot to mention that in my post! maybe go for the fog light cover conversion as mine is fully blanked off at the moment. Anything you think I may have missed??? Cheers Gary
scooby222 Posted May 21, 2011 Posted May 21, 2011 think that sounds pretty good, id be tempted to leave the wheels gold Gary, bit different these days have you sourced stiffi's? if not try darren at vivid racing
kennyuk300 Posted May 21, 2011 Posted May 21, 2011 Painting the boot lock looks trick. Very nice touch Kenny

Maybe the gold will stay, it's just I already have 2 in white from the rally car which I thought I might put on 1 side to see what it looks like. See what happens. Gary

Cheers Gary

Cheers Gary ih m8 wee fitted kw club sport kit because wee do track work the rb320 suspension will seat 30mm lower on the front & 20 mm on the back the rear roll bar is adjustable to have a set of whiteline top mounts if you are looking for some caster

Cheers JV Car looks sweet! Think if you got the black headlights that would finish the front end off just perfect, think they were an option on the hawk eyes? Or i've heard of guys taking them to bits & painting the inserts! Think theres an option for de-chromed tail lights too?
rallyfever Posted May 30, 2011 Author Posted May 30, 2011 I do like that air intake in the fog light cover, where did you get that and does it do anything apart from looking good? Did you just get the back lights tinted? If not how did you do it? Cheers Gary
col666 Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 I do like that air intake in the fog light cover, where did you get that and does it do anything apart from looking good? Did you just get the back lights tinted? If not how did you do it? Cheers Gary I just sold some genuine black fog light covers on ebay! I just used the drivers side one with no light in it, removed the intake snorkel in the inner wing and ran a flexi pipe up into the airbox. Made it a tiny bit noisier, prob didnt make any bhp increase. After this was taken i added a pipercross red anodised funnel behind the cover to make it a bit neater. Col.
