apart from the eyebrows (not to my taste) that looks amazing!

 

I actually like the number plate surrounds, but don't just pull them off, there's a bolt at the top of each too. Once that's removed it's just tape.

 

They dont really bother me either mate. I guess I'll have to have a look at some without and that will maybe convince me! Then I'll have to build the confidence to just rip them off lol.

 

Thanks again for the comments chaps. Definitely a car I'll be holding on to for a long time :)

Eyebrows will peel off. Best thing to do is take the lights out so that you can give them a good scrub once the brows are off. There will most likely be some residue.

 

As for the foglight, there will be a wire grounded out on the body and a wire feeding back to the foglight switch in the cabin. Leave the feed as it will be your switched positive, this can be used for the proper foglight mod, but tape it off and secure it somewhere safely in the boot for when it comes time to do the mod. Just ditch the rest.

 

The number plate surrounds are the same. Held on with adhesive tape stuff IIRC. They just pull off too but be careful not to take any paint with them, peel at an angle and gently. Once off you will need to get tar remover to get rid of the residue etc.

 

Headlights will probably be the first thing to go for since it seems the easiest and least likely for me to make a mess lol. Headlights were pretty shabby when I got them, gave them a real tidy when I spent the day cleaning it. Heres a 50/50 of before after. Looks like I'll have to give them another going over!

Anyone know the legalities of fog light placement? Is it fine to just plumb it into the existing lights? The UK spec foglight must be there somewhere I'd imagine.

Yeah, we all do what's called the foglight mod (do a search). On the rear you have 4 brake lights, switch the fog light and 2 stay on at brake light level. Job done.

 

Simon (Heckler) on here has released a diode version of the mod so that it only requires 2 very small circuits rather than 2 relays and 10m of wire.

NPS'S look GAY :D

 

Okay, I give! Hopefully give removing them a bash tomorrow :D

 

What this man said.

 

Lovely colour with nice wheels, OEM skirts and UK spec brakes. Almost all the desirables are already on the car.

 

H.

 

Thanks mate :) really like the wheels. Just gotta keep them in tip top condition as I cant find anyone who still does them :(
