My K14

[damienga15]

Here’s my K14 micra ,
It’s a SV premium + , 0.9ig-t , and it has the orange exterior trim pack and 17” alloys with orange insert. So far it’s been nice having a new car drives nice just about enough power to get about at a reasonable pace. Iv a few mods planned a dump valve a set of lowering springs and a set of wind deflectors for now soon as payday comes I’ll order some of it car needs a good valet and polish first though.
Today I removed the awful dealer plate holders but the animals used self tappers for the rear and the original mounts are raised so I couldn’t Velcro that plate on so there’s no screws I’m going to have to sort something better out

Most tuning companies here advertise 0.9TCE remaps at around 110bhp / 200Nm, which is a fairly decent improvement.

Anyone got any clue on how to remove the interior trim around the around the radio and air vents. and any idea on how to remove the steering wheel to take of the silver piece on the lower half (all are being wrapped but have no clue on removing them).

I seem to be a bit late to the party, but I've got myself a micra now too and wanted to know what sort of mods would be good for the car. I've got no experience with modding cars so I'll take all the help I can get.
