My Indie

[Benjamaniman]

Atm Im starting to think about what Im going to do to her. In the next few weeks when I get spare time im de-badging the back and giving it a good clean all over. Ive got plans to spray the side bumpers and mirrors but when I was looking under the side bumpers today it looked abit suspect like they had been plastered on before, not sure really, what is it sposed to look like underneath.

Then comes the money mods like alloys etc. Im stuck on what style of alloys to get atm aswell so any suggestions would be greatful and Im pretty sure its a 4 stud. The im going to take it from there.

Just also wanted to know what everyone else would do with it if they had it, any ideas or future mods that would smarten it up, any advice or your thoughts welcome , and I will keep the thread updated as I slowly plod along the modding path lol

with that colour i would add a set of smoked or black lexus rear lights and smoked side repeaters. have u meshed the front bumper, it looks like you have in you avatar

[Benjamaniman]

Yeh the front grill is meshed, mite take the fogs out and stick sum behind there aswell

[darren106]

check out my pic...this is wot its like if u mesh the fog inserts...;)

[Tim]

nooo if u have got fogs leave them in there. check for some things ive done to mine if u like. i have an independance..

ive colour coded handles and mirrors, meshed grille, put fogs in, projector headlights, 15 inch alloys, slammed 45mm, exhaust, de-wipered and debadged, french plates, shorter aerial and so on.

[Benjamaniman]

BTW just wondering on what you would do 1st, get alloys fitted, or lowered ?

[Rallye James]

I would go for alloys first really. Steels with wheel trims don't do nothing for looks :( A nice set of white alloys would set it off well ;) :D

[Tim]

i did alloys, no point in lowerind then rims because u might not be happy with the drop and will need to be done again

[Benjamaniman]

Thats the answer I was hoping for anyway lol

[Benjamaniman]

Just a small update, got it debadged and have started to colour code the bump strips however Im not sure if the colour is matched. It looks alrite from a few steps away but when closer looks abit lighter and I dont want to carry on doing the rest if its the wrong colour so any thoughts would be greatful :)

look like the correct colour metalic is always hard to match

[Benjamaniman]

I think it matches on the last pic bu the pic before it does look bright, thats the closest I could find anyway, so I will proceed with the other bumpers then.

[Benjamaniman]

Anyone else got there opinions on the colour of the bumpers before I go and spray of over the next couple of days ?

[darren106]

How have you been painting it mate? look at my avatar..i think I did a pretty good job

[James.G]

that paint match looks very wrong? did you get the correct paint from peugeot using your paint code?

[gazz]

When I got my paint using my paint code from Pug the colour match was awful, so I took a chance on Halfords paint and it was near enough a perfect colour match :confused:

[James.G]

hmmm strange... i had the complete oposite..

[gazz]

LOL! Which paint code is yours? I think mine is EYCC.

[rob_s]

that paint is a mile out DO NOT do the rest of the car lie that it will look gash! take it to a bodyshop and get it done properly or at least get them to mix the paint up for you and you spray themyourself,least there is a better chnace of a color match

[Benjamaniman]

Bodyshop costs a bomb, will just have to get some paint from Pug and do them again

[blackillusion]

shame bout the old pattern on the door and seats, otherwise i would of bought one by now.

OT:
does anyone have somewhere thats tells you the difference features in each model, like power steering and all that.

[Lacky]

nooo dont use that paint! halfords off the shelf paint is a great match but very thin, if u get a tin mixed up it will be thicker. i mixed up a tin and then top coated with pre tinned paint.

[mat_106]

whack some gti/quicksilver bumpers and arches on her :D
