Mako Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Well, decided to bite the bullet and de-tango the front of the wife's car on Tuesday. Took a deep breath and removed the lights and them put them in the oven, gas mark 3 6 mins each side turning occassionally and not forgetting to baste them in their own juices. Came apart luvverly. Really like the look of the front end of the car now. opinions appreciated Before tango After de-tangoed again Cheers Russ Link to comment

oobster Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Very nice Russ. U use Silvatec bulbs? Did you change the rear bulbs too? Jamie done mine a few months ago, and replaced the rear bulbs too - made the back end look that little bit nicer too!! Whats next on the mods list then Link to comment
Mako Posted October 26, 2005 Author Share Posted October 26, 2005 Oobster, I just took orange bulbs and painted them silver. Did the same with the rears too. Cheers for the comments Russ Link to comment

st3ph3n Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Look good as ever Russ. Does the wife approve of all these wee mods you've been doing to her car? Link to comment

sharon_mccall Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 (Can't say anything cos there's too much drool in my mouth.) What a gorgeous motor, your wife is veryveryveryvery lucky! Link to comment
Mako Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 Cheers Ian you biatch.... handbags at dawn matey I am very lucky as the wife is as much of a nutter as me, so the mods are fairly well accepted Don't know what else is on the cards, any suggestions? Possibly considering an AndyF remap, but not too sure as the car produced 271bhp / 270lbft on the rollers 4 weeks ago so it's certainly going well enough. Regards Russ Link to comment
clutdav Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Car looks great with the nice clean look at the front now. I would recommend the remap though as it transforms the car and makes it into a straight line animal. Dave Link to comment
michael_taylor Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 very nice russ, the car looks better and better every time i see it. how the hell do you manage to keep a white car so spotless ALL the time?? go for the remap,saving up for it myself, and as somebody once told me once you start modding scoobs you cant stop!! mike Link to comment
st3ph3n Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Russ, decent droplinks and geometery. Money very very well spent. Turned my car from good in the corners to great in the corners. Link to comment
