Bora 2.0 build thread
« on: April 09, 2009, 01:06:02 am »
well picked her up about a hour after i dropped mine off :(

the last picture of my car  :sad:



then went to blackburn to pick the car up  :party: only things wrong with it is, dent in the drivers door with a scratch, same scratch on the wing too, fuel door wont close, the washer jet has broke because the pipe is broke and the starter motor is making a noise on start up.. picked the car up for £1900



fitted the alpine headunit in (bloody cup holders) also ordered 2 15" MTX 8000 subs and a new box..



then it was down to wheelbase :D

had my eyes on these :P but.. theyre 20" and too wide :( wanted to do a poke + stretch



ended up settling for these :D 19" new RS4s



when it was up in the air...



after a agonising 1 and a half hour wait to fit alloys  :fighting:



then.. debadged it..



how it stands...



but!! being benny of course my luck has to change. bloody radiators pissing coolant everywhere! so im going tomorrow to look for one.. and charge the f*ckers that sold it to me  :angry015:


tomorrow (09/04/2009) list of things to do

find and change rad
build box for subs
tint rear lights
price up some springs
